What websites do locals use to find apartments/jobs?, Auf welchen Websites suchen Einheimische nach Wohnungen/Jobs?
I… I want to move to Germany and I am wondering where you go to find the necessities! Every website I've have found seems like a scam. Specifically looking to move to Berlin and the surrounding area!,
Ich möchte nach Deutschland ziehen und frage mich, wo man das Nötigste findet! Jede Website, die ich gefunden habe, scheint ein Betrug zu sein. Konkret auf der Suche nach einem Umzug nach Berlin und Umgebung!
yeah i'd add immowelt to the apartment list, it's pretty solid too. for jobs, make sure u check out the berlin job portal thing, it's called berlin.de and they have an official job section that's not sketchy at all
for apartments try immobilienscout24 or wg-gesucht, jobs check stepstone or indeed, those are legit and used by pretty much everyone here
i'd say skip the big names and look at studiowest in prenzlauer berg, they do amazing japanese style but the waitlist is like 6 months. if u want something quicker, the artists at bitterlich tattoo in mitte are super underrated, especially for fine line. and honestly, walk past the instagram hype, go to a shop in person and ask to see their portfolio book, that's where the real stuff is.
The Berlin tattoo scene is pretty spread out, so it depends on what style you're after. For fine line and minimalist work, I'd look at A Fine Line in Kreuzberg, they're booked out weeks in advance for a reason. If you want bold traditional, check out Die Wilde Ecke in Neukölln, they've been around forever and the artists there are solid. Honestly, your best bet is to scroll through Instagram and find someone whose healed work you like, not just the fresh photos, because that's where the real skill shows.
One thing nobody's mentioned yet is the tattoo convention at Arena Berlin, usually in early summer. It's a good way to see a bunch of styles in one afternoon and talk to artists face to face without committing to a shop. I found my guy there three years ago, he works out of a tiny studio near Boxhagener Platz and does amazing neo-traditional, but he rarely posts on Instagram so you'd never discover him otherwise. Bring cash if you go, a lot of the booths only take that on the day.
