Relocating to any new city around the world can be challenging especially if you're unaware of things you need to do. As a major European capital, everything you could wish for can be found in Berlin, but our Berlin relocation tips will help you settle in easily.First off, it’s worth organizing a German bank account as soon as possible. There are many online ways to sign up to a bank, from visiting a branch to signing up online, all of which can be done without speaking a word of German. As well as sorting a German bank account, it is also advisable to get onto a German cell phone network, ensuring you have clear communications from the get-go.
