    we have the same recycling system for plastic in Denmark as well. I do admit that I sometimes pick up bottles people leave on the table and bring it home because as you said it's free money 😅

    The card for the public transport system is currently 29 Euro and will be starting from May 49 Euro with which you can then use every publics in all over Germany. I didn't know that on sundays the museums are free I will use that from now on! But isn't it then too full there?

    • @OliveraDarko
      @OliveraDarko  Рік тому +1

      Oh nice I didn’t know that! I knew the 29€ ticket was running but I heard you had to get a yearly subscription in order to be able to qualify for it? Or something along those lines.
      I’m not sure, I’ve never been! But worth a shot I suppose 😊

    Many people suffer from the "I have to be as close to the center of the city as possible". I also had this syndrome but learned over time that - at least in Germany - living 20-30km far from the city is not really an issue especially if you have a bicycle/car/other means of transportation. I live in Potsdam and it's very easy to get to Berlin. In fact at least on the west northern outskirts of Potsdam you can take the DB train straight to Berlin and it takes you less time then going through even half of Berlin on a bus. :D

    I received advice to spread my investments across various assets like stocks and bonds, a strategy that safeguards my retirement portfolio. I intend to invest $200,000 across different markets, but I'm uncertain about where to begin.

    Hello :) thank you so much for your berlin videos! I am hoping to move there in the next year, or 2 years maximum. I am wondering if you happen to know which neighborhoods would be best to visit or live for 30 year olds who are artists/musicians? Like are there areas of the city that are known for young artist adults living there?

    • @OliveraDarko
      @OliveraDarko  Рік тому +2

      How exciting!! I’d say probably Friedrichshain, Kreuzberg, Prenzlauer Berg and perhaps even Neukölln are good areas with plenty of those types of people 😁
