I'm serious about moving so I'm gonna start researching the property now and see what places cost. Would be good to get all the above in a chat room...I'm going in now.

it's been in the planning stages off and on for a while... a small one in autumn is realistic I reckon. Ironically, the larger the city, the harder it gets to organize a larger event and actually get outside people to show up - especially with electronic music in Berlin.

i know that one - stfu london - oooohhh headache.

gonna be moving june/july next year.

yah id love to go to berlin. or anywhere good really.
its just getting a job once you are there....especially when you speak nein deutsch

as long as you speak english that people understand that's no problem in berlin ;)

Mmmmm, could imagine that. On the other hand, stfu Rome was a huge sucess. In that particular case it probably had a lot to do with the venue and the fact that it had a faithful crowd.

im fucked then!! ;)

so what kind of job could you get with only speaking english?

palac and myself have been wondering about the whole STFU Berlin issue for a while and since we're both kind of involved with record labels and so on there's an ambition to push a possible STFU Berlin enough to be recognized as one of the go-to events of that weekend... - finding the right venue is harder than you'd think though.

Some of you know Zentrale Randlage, an obvious option to do an STFU, and Palac is organising a record release party for his (net)label Frozen Elephants there in a couple of weeks again, but for a proper STFU it'd be a bit too small and it doesn't lend itself to a mixed experimental/dancey event like STFU.. the large techno venues obviously are too large.. so we're still trying to find the right mix. We should just rent a huge flat and have it take place there
english language customer support for some software company? well, for starters at least :p

keep in mind that you can get by easily with 500-600 euro/month there.

really?!?!? that little?
im on £1100 and im ALWAYS skint and having to borrow off my mum. suppose my car is a lot to do with it....
i could bring it with me!!!

hey! you could give us german lessons at night ;)

1100 quid, heavens! you can start thinking kids with that kind of money ;)

you could possibly certainly by a chance definetly someday count me in on this.

500-600 euros!? Most people i know are paying around that for rent each month!
Is Berlin really that cheap???? I mean its a capital city!
i thought you'd be on more than that Kris, is that post or pre tax?
i just started a £1135 a month job (pre tax) but its a lot less than i should be earning given my qualifications

Berlin as a whole certainly is not that cheap and I'm not saying that you can go out and party every night on that. but you can certainly have a part-time job and get by with living in a shared flat. However, if you're earning 1500 Euros after tax steadily you can live very comfortably in a single household with most amenities you'd want (including car).

I would really really really like to live in Berlin in that case
