Thanks, Germany! 🇩🇪

This might be an unpopular opinion but I just wanted to take a moment to thank this country for everything it has given me.

Background: I come from an Asian country and I moved here as a student back in 2022. It was a rough start, as I had to work shit jobs for survival and didn’t speak good german back then but I have a really good working student job right now, and I’ve started to pick up the language fluency as well.

Germany has its own problems like every other country but I’ll be forever grateful to this country for free education and plenty of career opportunities. Back in my home country I used to compromise on my health due to costs related with doctor visits but here I can just walk into any hospital or clinic and get treated. I don’t fear for my life walking around in the middle of night. I get respect from all of my friends I’ve made here & I’m yet to have a negative experience with any German. Although I still don’t have a great social life as of now but with every passing day I feel more at home. If anyone else’s experience is different, please try to learn the language, it works wonders. I’m also trying to give back to this country by volunteering in my city, and I will also be a volunteer at UEFA EURO 2024.

Yes I know complaining about things is a national sport here, and I have got some things to talk about as well but I’ll leave that for another day.

Thanks to Germany I’m living a life which once seemed possible only in my dreams. Thank you for everything.
