I have a pretty specific question about Flensburg - hope someone can answer. I'm from Denmark and I'm going there on the 25th of October to see Tina Dico at Deutches Haus. Unfortunately, since it's a Sunday, the last train back to Denmark leaves at 9pm, so I have to spend the night in Flensburg to get on the first train at 5:49am. Are there any 24 hour pubs or something there, or will I just have to find a bench and hope not to get robbed or arrested? Also, I'm thinking of bringing maybe €20-30, is that enough? The tickets for the show are taken care of.

Nasenbiber posted:It's been a while since I've been to Flensburg but usually it shouldn't be a problem to find a pub that's open till at least 4:00. However it could be much harder on sundays and if you find one you might be spending the night with middle-aged alcoholics. Money wise you should be fine. Thank you for this - I'm actually travelling with a GIRL, so maybe it'd be better to avoid the middle-aged alcoholics. Maybe I'll contact the tourist agency - they ought to have updated info (no put-down to you)  Thanks again!

polyfractal posted:Question on how LiveMocha works. I worked through the first full lesson, started the second and realized it won't let me progress anymore. I have to earn 300 "Teacher Points" by reviewing other submissions first, right? Then it will open up the next lesson and the process repeats? LiveMocha is a piece of poo poo. They lure you in by writing "free" all over, and then they want money anyway. gently caress'em.

I'm pretty sure every service exists to make money.

Hungry Gerbil posted:There are treaties regarding tickets between many European countries. You might actually get a nice letter asking for money soon. And you won't be able to talk yourself out of this situation. In Denmark they follow foreigner's cars to the nearest ATM to pay the fine right away. I'm not sure if they impound the car if he can't pay, but I just wrote and asked them. Danish News via Google Translate posted:Immediate Fine for Macedonian chauffeur

So, I decided to watch "Herbstfestival des Volksmusik" on ARD 1 last night. I understand German well enough to get by, and the show and music is fun to laugh at. First of all: All acts are playback. Painfully so. They walk around on a set of giant mushrooms and gaze, singing their hearts out. Even when they do have instruments on stage, they're not plugged in. The chords they take on the guitars have no resemblance to the music playing. Second, the show between the acts. It's like a variete, or vaudeville, or whatever it's called. Light entertainment with popular German singers and TV hosts. They had a host in from a news program. Apparently he started to wear glasses a couple of months ago on the show, but after a bunch of complaints he was forced to go back to wearing contact lenses  They had him try three different pairs of glasses and gave telephone numbers for people to vote on them! They chose the second pair. Also, some American dude who could break tiles and Roger Whittaker. The guy bet he could break a row of 50 tiles faster than Roger Whittaker could drink a glass of water. The guy won.And on and and on for three and a half hours. It was mind numbing. Is this what all Germans listen to, or just the old ones? We have "Volksmusik" in Denmark too, but they at least have the decency to keep it to one channel (on the radio) and occasionally an hour a week in the summer time. God drat. I have to find better things to do on Saturday nights

Zwille posted:Well [moin] is only really an universal greeting in northern Germany, so there's that. Everywhere else it is sort of considered an abbreviated "Guten Morgen", at least that's what I heard. Wikipedia, however, claims it's even only used in the morning in certain regions of northern Germany. It's also used extensively in southern Denmark, to mean both hello and goodbye. I've never heard it's only used in the morning. Then again, I didn't know it was a German greeting - I just thought it was another sign of South-Danish people being weird

The trick is to force your body into the new time zone, so I hope you got up at around 8 or something, and don't go to sleep until around 10-11 or whenever you usually sleeps. This all worked for me when I went to Canada from Denmark. No naps!
