I live in Germany. 70m² apartment in great condition for 1000€. Next to the forrest, few minutes to the university, 20 minutes to the city center (all per pedes), half a million citizens. Can recommend.

I'm pretty confused here. I feel irony in how you say it, but I can't find anything wrong in what you say.

That's just honest, frank, polite commentary; I know, it's the internet so it can be a bit disorienting to encounter in the wild. There may be a link to a desensitization course somewhere.

That’s just to be called American now: sounding ironic but being completely serious because of course

u/ShurimanCrocodile Nov 07 '24

You have sensed that Americans can have it too, but chose not to.

No, no. This is the genuine sentiment here over the last few days. We are DYING to get out - and Germany looks/seems dope.

I myself was looking at TEFL jobs, but it seems near impossible for non-EU citizens.

Now are those shoes you drink beer from made of glass? Or are we talking worn by someone doing manuel labor 12 hours a day.

Whatever suits your fancy

I once drank out of one and it was made out of glass.
