German Time: Love, Life & Why 5 Minutes Late Feels Like a Crime
Hello InterNations Fam,
welcome to my event:
German Time: Love, Life & Why 5 Minutes Late Feels Like a Crime
In Germany, time isn’t just a concept—it’s a religion. Being on time is more than polite, it’s a love language. But what happens when expats bring their “island time,” “Latin time,” or “Mediterranean chill” to the table?
This meetup is about:
The cultural clash between German punctuality and the rest of the world.
How strict time rules affect dating, friendships, and even work.
Hilarious stories of when “just a few minutes late” turned into a disaster.
If you’ve ever been told “you’re late” when you were only two minutes behind, this one’s for you.
For this Event:
These meetups are open to everyone—expats, locals, singles, couples, friends, or anyone curious about intercultural life in Germany. Come ready to share your own stories, laugh about your adventures, and leave with new perspectives and maybe even new connections.
Best Regards,
