This week’s guest is Canadian Jenna Davis. She’s been living in Germany for about ten years and shares her experiences so far. She has her webpages Life in Düsseldorf and Life in Germany and tells us a little more about the story behind them. Now also being a mother, she offers valuable tips for raising children in Germany, discussing the available benefits and how to navigate everything from the Kita System up to packing a Schultüte. Besides that we are also diving into the new Döner standards disclaimed by the UDOFED and what Germans mean, when they are „urlaubsreif.“

Week 32: New Döner standards, Feeling Urlaubsreif, Grumpy old Germans

In this week’s episode of Plus Forty Nine, we’ve officially arrived at election week. To help you make sense of the vote, we’re diving into the Wahl-O-Mat, an online tool that matches your views with party platforms. Joining us is Giorgi, co-founder of Loyi, a gamified loyalty platform working with brands like Deutsche Telekom and BMW. We’ll talk about customer loyalty in a digital world, the challenges of building a business in Germany, and Giorgi’s personal experience as an expat. Having lived here for over 13 years—and even married a German—he’s got plenty to share about navigating life in Germany, including a cheat code for German grammar. Plus, in Ask a German, we’re breaking down what Germans really mean when they crave something herzhaft.
