Definitely All About Berlin. A few years ago, I started documenting how to deal with German bureaucracy as a foreigner. The website grew and grew until it became a well-known resource for immigrants. It has become my full-time job at some point in 2020.

It's been a little over 5 years since I started, and I'm still super stoked about my work. I still enjoy doing the research, rewriting guides a dozen times, and answering reader mail. People seem really grateful for it, and it means a lot to me.



That's awesome! Wish I had heard about it when I moved there, definitely going to hunt through the site to see if you have a guide to getting some of my pension payments refunded now that I've moved


I do! https://allaboutberlin.com/guides/pension-payments-refund

Don't forget your tax return too. If you didn't work the full year, you'll get money back.


Ha, amazing, thank you!


I use your site often. Thank you for creating it, it's a great resource!
