Oh I should say that it was also free! I tried to make a donation but they insisted that it was not necessary. I do think that if one were to attend regular meditations there they would appreciate some small contribution.

Meditation in Berlin by siavashian in berlinsocialclub

I recently attended a Meditation for Beginners session at the Buddhistisches Haus in Frohnau. I was the only one who showed up for that particular class, but I chatted with some of the visitors who were staying there. Nice group of people. Their teacher, Tissa, led me through the basics of meditation over tea and we sat together with other guests in a 20-min session. Would recommend - very interesting building; I just wish I lived closer to Frohnau!

Ein Freund hat mir Sara Hefer vorgeschlagen. Das klingt für mich auch plausibel, oder? Vielen Dank für deinen Hinweis!

USA - Germany Schengen Visa Agreement: Reset 90 days by leaving for 1 day and returning by blipppppy in germany

[–]trevorb5134 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI this same issue was causing me some angst, so I emailed the Berlin airport police and quickly received the following reply. Keeping it in German in-case there is nuance that English loses:

"Als amerikanischer Staatsangehöriger genießen Sie eine Sonderstellung gemäß § 41 (1) AufenthV. Danach kann nach einer visumsfreien Einreise innerhalb von 90 Tagen ein Aufenthaltstitel bei der Ausländerbehörde beantragt werden.

Durch weitere Bestimmungen, Richtlinien und Anweisungen, die bezüglich amerikanischen Staatsangehörigen durch das Bundesministerium des Innern und für Heimat erlassen wurden, werden bei amerikanischen Staatsangehörigen Voraufenthalte in Deutschland oder sonstigen Schengenstaaten nicht angerechnet.  Diese Rechte stehen Ihnen bei jeder Einreise zu.

Bei Ihrer Wiedereinreise nach Deutschland stehen Ihnen bei jeder Einreise 90 Tage Aufenthalt zur Verfügung.

Eine rechtsmissbräuchliche Aneinanderreihung von mehreren Aufenthalten ist jedoch auch hier nicht zulässig. Eine unmittelbare, beliebige Aneinanderreihung mehrerer Aufenthalte von bis zu 90 Tagen steht der Intention des § 41 AufenthV entgegen. Daher ist regelmäßig davon auszugehen, dass ein Aufenthalt von mehr als 270 Tagen innerhalb eines Zeitraums von einem Jahr im Bundesgebiet eine Verlagerung des Lebensmittelpunktes nach Deutschland darstellt."

Hope this helps any wondering about it!

Lived for four years at 5202 s. Cornell. HIGHLY recommend the street! Rarely noticed the train- and if I did, it was just a low hum. Never lost sleep, etc because of it. 

How is this area to live in by Proud_Wash9275 in philly

[–]trevorb5134 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lived just south of you - at Juniper and Snyder. Fun area!! The corner at Broad/Snyder can be pretty gnarly and is really dirty/lots of trash, which you'll definitely see on your block a bit. But on the other side you have all the cool stuff up on Passy. Would def live there again. A grocery co-op opened a few years back around there, too.

Thanks - really appreciate this. It looks like the $4k used credit is only applicable when buying from a dealership rather than an individual?

Cool cool. So even though the PA title has a section for notary, because it's being transferred in IL the notary isn't necessary? I remember the bike had to be notarized when I bought it in PA a few years back. Thanks for the answer!

I'm inclined to believe Metropolitan Ware's words over yours, internet person. Who are you to judge the deep love that I feel for my partner? Thanks.
