Summary

It's been a squillion years since Jacinta Nandi arrived in the German capital – and like Jesus, she has suffered, so you don't have to. In this collection of short texts, she'll tell you everything you need to know about stingy male "feminists", oppressive church taxes, unnecessary Anmeldungen – and how to make the perfect German Abendbrot (exhausted cucumbers are key).  

Why are Berlin house numbers so confusing? Why does everyone love dogs and hate babies? And do you really need to learn German to survive in this city?  Join Jacinta on her expatsplaining journey through the German Hauptstadt filled with ketamine and glitter, judgy grannies and scary Beamte, and, of course, Currywurst and pain. A travel guide is nice to have – but this book is essential if you want to survive in Berlin!
