Where do students/young professionals usually go for drinks here?
Just arrived to Berlin a week ago and I'd like to have some bars recommendations to check out.
I used to live in Amsterdam and really enjoyed the kind of bars full of students/young profes… more
Depends on your vibe, really. Kreuzberg is packed with quirky bars, Friedrichshain's got the grungier, alternative scene, while Prenzlauer Berg is a bit more upscale. You'll find something for everyone, though.
TU Berlin's Secret Societies?
So, I'm heading to the Technische Universität Berlin next semester. Heard whispers of secret student societies – like, *really* secret. Old, established groups with bizarre initiation rites and lege… more
Yeah, those rumours are… mostly true. TU Berlin has a surprisingly vibrant, if discreet, scene of student societies that go way beyond the usual clubs. Think less "secret society" in the Dan Brown sense, and more "close-knit group with exclusive membership and some seriously wild traditions." You won't find anything advertised on the uni website. Word of mouth is key. Getting in? That's the tricky part. It's not about applying; it's about knowing someone who knows someone. Network intensely during your first semester – join other clubs, get involved in student life, make friends. The information tends to trickle down. Think of it less as joining a society, and more as being invited into one. And be prepared for some… unusual initiation activities. Let's just say the stories you've heard might be underselling things. Think of it as a Berlin-style version of "finding your tribe." Good luck, you'll need it.
Whoa, okay. That's... way more intense than I expected. Unusual initiation activities? Sounds like I should probably brush up on my German emergency phrases. I'm pretty good at networking, so hopefully that first semester hustle will pay off. Thanks for the heads-up – I'd have gone in completely blind otherwise. Seriously, though, "underselling things" is a pretty ominous statement. Guess I'll be keeping a low profile until I figure this whole thing out.
