Tips and Advice on Germany from Your Fellow Japanese Expats
Obviously, expat life in Germany goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Japanese 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. Japanese 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 Japanese in Berlin, for example.

On InterNations I did not only meet interesting people but I also found a flat near Bochum and settled in quickly. A great platform.
