Living and working in Berlin
-
I thoroughly recommend the www.mitwohnzentrale.de website. Your first priority is to find a place to live and the rent here is incredibly cheap. Make sure you come with at least SOME cash in the bank to get you through any period of no work. On the job side - there seems to be a shortage and I know quite a few Germans leaving Berlin to head to Munich and other parts of Bavaria where there is currently an economic boom. There are however thousands of coffee bars, cocktail bars, restaurants, clubs etc. so if you don't mind that kind of work you'll be fine. As far as the language goes - I've rarely come across people who can't speak at least some basic English. I can't speak German and I know people who've lived here 10 years and still can't speak it. Good luck!
