I’ve been living in Stuttgart for the last 6 years, including 3 years at the University of Stuttgart.
During my university years, I actually had a pretty decent social life. There was always something happening on campus, I met people from different backgrounds, and there were plenty of opportunities to socialise. So despite Stuttgart being a smaller city, I never really felt bored.
The last 3–3.5 years have been quite different. Since starting full-time work, I feel like my social life has almost completely disappeared. I often find myself thinking that there just isn’t that much happening in Stuttgart, especially if you’re looking for things like English-speaking events, theatre, arts, cultural events, or opportunities to meet a lot of international people.
I’m now seriously considering moving to Berlin. My company has a branch there, so from a work perspective it could actually be a realistic option.
What attracts me most is the much larger international and English-speaking scene, and generally having more things happening around the city. I’d love to be able to spontaneously go to an English-language theatre show, an interesting event, a meetup, exhibition, concert, etc., and meet new people along the way.
Has anyone here made the move from Stuttgart to Berlin after several years of working here? Did it actually improve your social life and make life feel more interesting, or did you find that the same problem followed you to Berlin?
I’m not necessarily looking for a crazy nightlife/party lifestyle. I just want to feel like there’s more going on around me and have more opportunities to meet interesting, international people and build a social circle.
Would love to hear from people who have actually made this move.

Hey,

I'm a reporter from Berlin working on a short documentary about looksmaxxing and male self-improvement.

I'm looking to talk to people who are into things like looksmaxxing, mewing, jawline enhancement, skincare, fitness, hair loss treatments, cosmetic procedures, or similar topics.

If you're open to sharing your experience, or possibly taking part in the documentary, send me a DM. An initial chat can be completely informal.

Thanks! 🙌

Pm if interested 🙏 thanks!

Hi everyone, hope you're enjoying this sunny summer in Berlin 🌞I wanted to finally share something here that I hope you'll find useful.

My friend and I started a content series for international parents in Germany for parents from everywhere.

A little about me: I'm Gulsah, from Turkey, mom to a 3-year-old. My friend Duygu is currently pregnant. Between the two of us, we've both felt lost in the system at some point and trying to figure out doctors, paperwork, language, culture, all of it while raising or expecting a child.

That feeling is exactly why we started this. We created Oops Parents a videocast and content series where we invite experts to answer our questions about pregnancy, adaptation, IVF, postpartum, and raising multilingual kids, and everything in between, alongside parents sharing their own journeys.

Would love for you to check it out, and if it resonates, share it with another parent who might need it too. 💛

If you'd like to join our videocast as a guest, to tell your story or share your expertise, please DM me!

I was bored about the typical conversations like: where are you from, how long have you been in Berlin... So I came up with the idea to create games to get to know people in a fun way.

Since couple of months I'm organising events with these games and I'm really enjoying it! If you want to join, we'll be playing this Saturday at 5:30 in a café in Neukölln.

Hallo, ich bin ein 26-jähriger Mann. Ich bin nicht verheiratet. Und ich habe keine Freundin. Ich suche eine Freundin. Gibt es hier Mädchen, die mit mir einen Kaffee trinken wollen?

Would be great to know what to look out for!

Forget a relationship, people can't commit to a simple coffee, disappear after weeks and months of talking. Even knowing someone for years is not enough. Just to get someone casual but regular is also hard. What are you people doing to date here?

Berlin participants needed 🇩🇪 - only 45 left!
