I moved a month ago. I agree 100%. I don’t see myself leaving Germany anytime soon

First way of making friends, besides the work place, is to enter a club (local sports club, music club, choir, voluntary fire brigade, marksman confraternity, carnival association, etc.). Meeting people with the same interests, brings people toogether and Germans like to be part of a club.

Finding employment in Munich can be quite challenging, especially for outsiders. The job market tends to favor those already residing in the city, making it tough for newcomers to break in. I've been trying for quite a while now.
