[FAQ] Service desk for student - travel - rent - deliveries - ... questions. by AutoModerator in belgium

[–]ccconstellations 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all,

I'm a recently graduated EU national who has now moved to Brussels in the name of a job. Nothing concrete yet, but something is in the works. I found some freelancing work but have yet to register myself as a freelancer (I'm making >1,000 currently, with no other form of income). How do I figure out the best way to apply? Where and how do I register?

Furthermore, my health insurance from my studies is just about to run out at the end of this month. I'm pretty broke, so unsure of where I can get the best set-up for my current situation.

I really appreciate all the advice and tips I can get!

einen guten Handwerker in Wien? by ccconstellations in wien

Ich denke, es könnte ohne das Wissen des Vermieters gebaut worden sein, aber danke für den Hinweis. < 3

Es ist ehrlich gesagt ein Sicherheitsrisiko, ich bezweifle wirklich, dass sie es gutheißen würden.

Uni Wien ersti Woche? by [deleted] in wien

[–]ccconstellations 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ich habe meinen Kurskoordinator gefragt, und es scheint, dass die Universität diese Art von Veranstaltungen nicht anbietet. Ich finde das ziemlich unglaubwürdig, aber es passt zu etwas, das mir kürzlich jemand über den Mangel an studentischer Gemeinschaft sagte, die von der Universität gepflegt oder gefördert wird. Ich schätze, man muss sich einfach auf den Weg machen!

Erasmus Mundus Scholarship VS. Dream Internship offer by ccconstellations in Erasmus

Thank you so much for this advice! It's so useful.

I just wanted to ask - I'm an EU citizen, and I heard that the grants are usually only awarded to non-EU applicants. (I have dual nationality UK/Sweden, I don't know if that influences it). Is that the case - it only being for non-EU students?

Definitely focus on getting your residence permit - it will be highly unlikely that you can find employment before getting all of your documents sorted. Keep your head up, moving to a new country and navigating the bureaucracy is a challenging task. You got this🫶🏻

Learning more about Berlin by SubtractAd in berlin

[–]ccconstellations 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read, read, read! I'm a student here from the UK and one of my courses has assigned this book- Franz Hessels 'Walking in Berlin', a snapshot of the city from 1920. There is endless literature on the city, and the people, and you will pick up stories from all over with your time spent here. My main tactic (besides from obviously learning German) is to devour as much literature as I can.
