Not European so I’m probably not that knowledgeable. I was just wondering since some countries seem to have their own currencies and I understand that the German economy is one of the most powerful ones in Europe

I’m (21F) from southeast asia and will be doing an exchange in austria for the winter semester.

Towards the end of the semester (appx early-mid february 2027) i’m planning to visit eastern europe for about a week. I have never been to this region in europe and would love love love to see and learn more about it.

I’m open to any suggestions on your “favorite” countries to see in eastern europe!

Therefore, please enlighten me on these topics:

\- Coast sides: I would prioritize to see coast sides. I come from an archipelagic state but europe coast sides with its own style of infrastructure is extremely beautiful to me.

\- Historical: I love learning about places that have significant influences on a regional / global history and geopolitics. A place with many of these things + good museums to visit would be a plus point!!

\- Warmth: Haahaha dont come for meee! I know that it will be winter. But i would love just a tolerable winter.. the warmer the better for mee

\- Affordability: Would imagine to not “have much left” after the semester, so perhaps take friendly costs into your considerations for suggestion. Also, I would be flying from around Munich to the destination, so I would consider flight ticket prices.

- “Safety”: All places could be equally both safe and unsafe. I understand this from past solo travels. Though, for sure some places are less catering to certain genders, races, age and would tend to take more advantage of these vulnerabilities. I just wanna vibe bro

Thank you!❤️

Halooooooo kawan

I’m (F21 Indo) planning to hike gunung kinabalu around 18-25 August 2026. I’m planning to find some friends.

Is anyone else interested? Or are there groups I can accustom myself to? Or are the official package tours offered enough?

Makasehhh❤️

Hello everyone!

I, (F21) am a final year law student. Throughout my studies, I had several researching jobs + one internship in international law (whether it'd be criminal law, human rights law, business law). I love learning international law, but more precisely, the branches of it that hones to marginalized communities--basically the jobs that pays close to nothing.

However, I didn't come from a rich family. Trying to have a career in international law is like trying to find a treasure at a random beach these days. It's filled with many, many unpaid internships and geographical luck.

I have had two internships in corporate law. A consultancy firm and an arbitration law firm. Both paid well but made me want to die. And the greed and "immoral-ness" they talk about is real. This is why they say 50% of hell is made up of lawyers. Hahahhahaa

But corporate law is (arguably) much easier to get into and you have direct significant remuneration.

This has been my dilemma for a couple years now and I was wondering if anyone ever had to make a similar decision, idealism vs being realistic when they were a younger.

I don't reckon I was a horrible person, but just pretty individualistic. For instance, previously, I would just monotone-ly and really shortly give answers to strangers in my city who ask for directions.

But after doing a few solo travels, and living in 4 different countries, it made me more sympathetic, more observant, more open.

This is because I now understand how intimidating it is to be in a vulnerable position in a place you're not familiar with and a language you don't speak.

I have been helped and welcomed warmly with so many locals when I am abroad, and now I always go out my way to give the same energy back to foreigners in my country, and making sure they feel safe and welcomed.

Discussions on xenophobia now sounds extremely illogical as ever to me, since after visiting many museums and learning about cultures around the world, i realized how similar we all are

Have you had enlightening experiences like these?

Hello I'm non EU,
Doing an exchange in Innsbruck and will use "Haftungserklärung" to proof financial funds through my siblings who reside in German.

This is permitted and much easier than opening a block account or etc. There is this requirement though in the Haftungserklärung:
"Hinweise:

⟶ Die Haftungserklärung muss von einem österreichischen Notar oder einem inländischen Gericht beglaubigt werden!"

My siblings speak fluent German, currently working there for about 8 years now, and yes, they do have the sufficient funds needed.

Q:

1. Does anyone know if this can be done through online? Most jurisdictions can.
2. If yes, how and where? (documents needed, cost, time needed, etc)
3. If no, how and where?

Thanks so much guys have a lovely day <3

I hate indo gov for numerous reasons that u hate them for too. Tapi beberapa bulan ini kadang suka kesel ngeliat kritikan orang2 ke pemerintah yang berdasarkan ragebait aja dan fast-paced content dari tiktok/twitter/instagram dan jadi triffle effect panas ke semua orang. Padahal dibalik policy/keputusan itu ada konteks yg lebih besar dan tidak dibahas. Misinformation juga sering bgt terjadi yang mengakibatkan kritikan jadi terdengar bodoh.

Contoh: a) rupiah lemah REKOR sepanjang masa (not true, inflasi di thn 1998 itu ngebuat 1 dolar jadi 86rb kalo dimasa skrg) b) prabowo sering ke luar negeri (i wish people learned more about the diplomatic influence a head of state needs to do to have an international standing) c) Demo sering ngehighlight revolusi (apakah orang-orang tau dampak dari negara yang sedang kena revolusi separah apa?) d) Prodi ditutup. (Penyampaian dari pemerintah jelek tapi policy ini makes sense. Bukan menutup tapi mengurangi untuk mencocokan jumlah pekerja. Banyak negara maju mengimplementasikan ini, bahkan beberapa negara "gabolehin" rakyat yang nilainya lebih jelek untuk tidak bisa langsung kuliah.) e) dan banyak lagiii..

Pernah bekerja utk pemerintahan (hated their work ethic and gaakan lagi) tp para pemerintah ini juga benci dengan kritikan "konyol" dan menurut saya ga akan tergubris dengan kritikan rakyat indonesia krn bagi mereka ga spot on (due to the lack of critical thinking in the first place)

Jadi lingkarang setan aja ini. Rakyat makin benci pemerintah. Pemerintah jg jadi nyepelein rakyat karena yang paling berisik mengkritik yang cuman ke rage bait dari fast-paced content. Wdyt?

Has anyone here experienced marriage w a Kazakh? Im from southeast asia and my boyfriend is currently a kazakh. I am wondering how itd be like. There are mixed reactions since kazakh culture is known to be a bit "patriarchic"

hi everyone! im an incoming exchange (bachelors) student from southeast asia to university of innsbruck for the winter semester. ill be taking classes from the faculty of law.

this opportunity is not cheap. hence, i want to make it extremely worth it by participating in "academic stuffs" outside of classes, ie. conferences / competitions. i have numerous experiences on an international level for researching / competitions beforehand.

what is the best way to do this? is it possible to reach out to the lecturers for such opportunities?
