New here?

Start with what nobody tells you.

About

From Germany to New York City.

I write the useful things down, especially the ones that are difficult to find in official instructions.

My perspective comes from living across countries and languages, navigating the move from Germany to New York, rebuilding my work, and slowly making a home here.
