Living in a big, dense city like Munich can sometimes be hard. Here is my advice for any foreigners who want to feel more at home and comfortable here.
1. Get lost in the city: it is the best way to get used to the Ubahn, Sbahn system, and you are bound to discover a new restaurant or store that you like
2. Talk to strangers: whether it is in english or german, don’t be afraid to talk to people in munich, they are usually friendly and can help you if you are lost
3. Meet other foreigners: if your german isn’t so good, you can always meet people from your country, there are tons of websites for english clubs like www.toytown.de
4. Do tours: there are lots of bike tours and walking tours in different locations of Munich… take advantage of them!
5. Do some sightseeing: Take a sightseeing bus and get a general overview of all of the places you can see in Munich, they are usually at Hauptbanhof. Afterwards you can visit the places that were interesting to you.
Well I hope you all are having a great time in Munich! That’s all for this blog.
