Oh that's really cool! I'll be traveling to Berlin in a few weeks. I can't wait to discover all of Germany.
Can recommend Hamburg as a beautiful city to visit!

I adore Hamburg, it's such an interesting place, elegant and peaceful.
I would love to live there.
Something I saw there, in a restaurant called the Old Commercial Room near the Michel, was a piece on the wall about a dish called Labskaus. It said that sailors doing the Hamburg - Liverpool route made Labskaus for themselves and shared it around when they were docked in Liverpool, It took off, was adapted a little, the name was shorted to Skaus by the local people and the rest is history.

Oh cool! Yes, I especially adore the Speicherstadt
I'm from Cologne myself, and I have to admit, the city doesn't have much going for it aesthatically apart from Christmas markets and the Dom

Is there anything that I should look out for in Germany? Some taboos or things to avoid doing that might irritate the people?
Can I get around using public transportation just fine, or do I need a bike?
Would be great to know a few things before landing!

Top tip: preferably don't cross a red pedestrian light, especially if you are not in the city centre of a big city and especially especially when there is a kid among the other people waiting
might seem silly, I know hahaIf you meet up with somebody, I generally advise to be at least somewhat punctual. There is of course always be that person whos gonna be late, try to not be them
Don't be the ******* on the Autobahn who thinks that because there is no speed limit, they actually have to drive 240 km/h.
Public transportation depends on the city you are in and how centrally you live
generally, it is quite good (even though everyone always complains about the Deutsche Bahn). But if you live somewhat centrally and In a city like Berlin, you should probably be fine Original post by waitanddrinktea

Be sure to have a quick look at this to make sure that everything is shipshape, just in case.

definitely! We might be in Lockdown until mid march (it is being debated as we speak), and I'm not sure if you would be able to get into the country until then (especially if you are looking to travel here from the UK) and also if it would be worth visiting when actually everything apart from supermarkets is closed
