Tips and Advice on Germany from Your Fellow South African Expats
Obviously, expat life in Germany goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow South Africans is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the German mentality and way of life. South Africans in Germany are a part of our community, calling cities such as Hamburg, Munich, Berlin, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow South Africans in Berlin, for example.
