I’m a 28 year old Canadian guy. I grew up in Canmore, Alberta, and I’ve lived in Japan and in Switzerland besides Germany. I have a BA in philosophy and I minored in German, and now I’ve moved here to get on track with starting a masters at a school here in Berlin. I do freelance translation, produce electronic music, and I write this quite informative and entertaining blog from my apartment in Prenzlauer Berg. Please feel to get in touch with me if you need any help with any of the items in this blog. I may not be an expert, but I’ve been where you are now, at the beginning, and when I was there I didn’t have any help. I learned the hard way, and I want to share my experience with you to make things easier…
