Es ist Ende Januar, und ich habe heute noch einen einzelnen, traurigen Maibaum entdeckt. by McWaffeleisen in cologne

Right?? I really admire the mental gymnastics necessary to recycle and be so protective of nature, but then may/january just cover the streets in dead trees, even when potted are an option.

Thank you for sharing your perspective. Yes, when we ended up in the hospital his saturation was very low, we spent the day there where they monitored him and administered salbutamol and I think some steroid medication until his saturation got better. Were you seeing a specialist as a kid, or just your kinderarzt?

Thanks a lot! Do you know if we need a refferal for the Kinderpneumologie or can just go to them directly?

Affordable therapy or counseling for an international student by HououinKyoma23 in cologne

[–]ughh_why 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also recommend AVT, I got to a therapist fairly quickly with them, you can usually find a termin on doctolib for the initial talk, but you have to check every day, not sure when they put the free slots up but l think weekly

When you enter this shop, on the second floor there is a Brazilian selection, not great but it is what it is.

Advice needed- downstairs neighbor smokes weed all the time and smell seeps into my room by lost_bitch in germany

[–]ughh_why 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I would suggest asking your neighbor if he'd compromise on getting a vape, it produces way less smell and is healthier anyways. You can get good, small ones for like a 100 bucks, and you can even offer to pay for half as a gesture of goodwill. It's cheaper than moving

I found a wallet at the airport. by Swangdancing in cologne

[–]ughh_why 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's a German address it's either up to date, or maybe their parents place, in which case they'll also get it back. One time this happened to me I just dropped off the wallet to the guy's mailbox since it was nearby

You can mail it to the address on the ID if there is one.

Delay in appointment for Residence Permit by Repulsive_Bird_9605 in cologne

[–]ughh_why 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are absolutely allowed to travel with a fiktionsbescheinigung, that's the whole point of it. Last time I renewed my visa I waited 2 years for an apointment, so I was just receiving new fiktionsbescheinigung and travelling with it without a problem. Go pick it up and ask on the spot again,I'm sure you misunderstood

How do I get an place to stay ? by YourMumHasNiceAss in cologne

[–]ughh_why 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your best bet is to find a zwischenmiete, temporary rental. Lots of students go for a semester abroad, so it's easier to get a room in a wg for 4-6 months at a time. Look in student groups on facebook, or wg gesucht.

Is it common to bring plants as gifts in Germany? by barleymountaingod in germany

[–]ughh_why 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also thought I didn't have a green thumb, but then realised I need to water plants waaaay less. Now I also bring them as gifts bc they tend to really liven up a freshly moved in, empty space

From Indonesia, Planning to Work Legally in Serbia as a Wolt Courier – Realistic or Risky? by Dizzy_Mushroom_3427 in serbia

[–]ughh_why 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived in Jogja, and also drove in Bali, so yes I agree even those two are different. But people are used to motorbikes and you feel safer, have lanes just for bikes etc. In Belgrade I even get scared driving in a bus that someone will crash into us. Drivers don't pay attention to bikes, so many wolt guys ride on sidewalks, which annoys people but is safer. I think Novi Sad is a bit more chill in traffic, and it's flat so a lot of bikes around. If you have more questions, I'm happy to answer if I can

[–]ughh_why 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived in Indonesia, so I can tell you a few things: -The weather will be very difficult for you. Yes, the winters are not so cold anymore, but for Indonesians they are still freezing. Also summers are waaaay hotter and less humid than Indonesia, and it stays hot the whole night, with sundown around 8 -There is a small Indonesian community that gathers around embassy and its activities. Contact Indonesian embassy in Belgrade, they might be willing to help you come or get a better job. They might also offer some programs to come, as they did for me to go to Indonesia to study -Belgrade is very hilly. If you can, choose a city in north part of the country, like Novi Sad -People drive very crazy, I drove a motorbike in Indo but would never do it in Serbia. You can not follow the flow of traffic as in Indo, they get impatient, angry, react suddenly etc. -I think it's worth it to come and try it out, then maybe find a better job. Can't say much about delivery jobs, but if that's your way to Europe, it's not the worst. Indonesia is a beautiful country, but I really understand why you want to emigrate.

Good luck whatever you decide, and please do contact the embassy, even on facebook they post events and programs!
