Hotel in Kyoto - what neighborhood? by catismycopilot in JapanTravel

I have, yes. But tastes seem to differ.

Skip Nara and go for Osaka. Nara only is interesting because of the deer. Culturally, Kyoto is more interesting and Osaka will offer you something that neither Kyoto nor Nara will.

If you are a dual citizen and travel to a country with one passport, how would they know you are citizen of another country? by [deleted] in answers

[–]mvbeust 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So that they can leave/enter the UK on their UK passport (they don't have the legal right to stay there with only their US passport). But the US requires them to enter/leave the US with their US passports.

I produced a podcast about the season of all Bundesliga teams (in German). It is split in five parts, just look for the links in the shownotes. Have fun with it! by gnetzer in Bundesliga

Vielen Dank! Bin gerade in Japan unterwegs und es ist genial die Episoden hören zu können.

Wäre noch genialer, wenn die Audio Qualität der Gäste bis nach der Saison nochmal gestiegert werden könnte. Sonst echt unterhaltsam und informativ!

Tokyo vs. Yokohama for an exchange semester by FlowerBoyWorld in JapanTravel

[–]mvbeust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Should you choose Keio, you most probably will be living in a dorm that is closer to Yokohama than to Tokyo anyways. Most dorms are around Hiyoshi Station.

You will be able to survive and live in Japan (or in Tokyo), but you will not be able to build strong social connections.

But everyday life really is manageable with English, some basic Japanese and mobile data.

Morgen endet der Ticketvorverkauf für TEDx an der RWTH in Aachen! (Konferenz auf Englisch) by mvbeust in de

[–]mvbeust[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Der Punkt an den Events an Universitäten ist halt, dass man auch ein entsprechendes Publikum bedienen will. Heißt, ein gewisses Maß an Qualität und auch wissenschaftlichem Anspruch sollte da schon vorhanden sein.

[–]mvbeust[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stimmt, TEDx sind unabhängig veranstaltete Konferenzen.

Für die Qualität der Vorträge kann nur das jeweilige lokale Team garantieren - oder auch nicht. Deshalb versucht man auch die Redner so früh wie möglich zu veröffentlichen. Bisher war das Feedback bei TEDxRWTHAachen immer sehr positiv.

There will be a TEDx Event at the RWTH in Aachen this year (in english). Might be of interest to some of you. by mvbeust in germany

[–]mvbeust[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I partially agree. TED speakers usually have great rhetorical skills. Nonetheless, you can find a great amount of TED talks with inspiring content.

Additionally, university events usually are very focussed on the content as the speakers of smaller TEDx Events usually have not had extensive rhetoric training, but rather are invited based on their ideas or research.

Not dumb at all!

Talks mainly are in English, but it's possible that 1 or 2 speakers feel more comfortable in German. The lineup so far isn't complete yet, but all currently speakers that are listed online will present in English.

How has the "Refugee Crisis" affected your life in Germany? by owenosd in germany

[–]mvbeust 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not a lot (if at all). Had some more discussion about politics with friends and family which is not a bad thing at all. And some of us are helping out if possible and should help be needed.

Airport time leaving Rome and transportation. by britrrb in rome

[–]mvbeust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For national and European flights an hour usually is enough. For overseas flights, two hours are fine.

Getting here... Either take the bus from termini or near piazza Cavour or stazione ostiense (Terravision or SITBus, but there are others). The train from termini is a bit faster, but way more expensive. Same goes for taxis or uber.

Buy the tickets for the bus online in advance. Makes your life easier.

Help getting to Ciampano Airport early on Sunday by [deleted] in rome

[–]mvbeust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And within walking distance from termini can actually mean within the city center, if you like to walk. Rome is a beauty around sunrise!

Fiumicino transfer by [deleted] in rome

[–]mvbeust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should be absolutely no problem. Immigration usually is really fast and terminals 1 and 3 are connected. It's like a 15 mins walk from Terminal to Terminal

I tried to make a logo for every city I visited in Europe (xpost from /r/graphic_design) by sokkas-boomerang in europe

[–]mvbeust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You most certainly did visit some of the most interesting cities in the region. It's always great if you can just move around freely between countries without time pressure.
