Meeting people in Bonn

27 year old Australian, just moved here for work and don't know anyone!

Who is out there and where are the good places to go?

Cheers, Em

Welcome to Toytown.

There seem to be about 20 TTers in Bonn (and probably more, but these 20 or so have listed Bonn as their location). I'm afraid I can't give you any practical advice about Bonn since I've never been there, but I'm sure someone will do so before long. I hope you'll meet some nice people soon. All the best!

Hi there!
I am a German trainee teacher from Cologne but I work in Bonn. I am looking for native speakers to speek English from time to time. Next tuesday I will meet an English guy in Bonn in order to talk. You can come too and I could bring another German friend, so we could speak English-German and you can find out more about the city and the area perhaps.
See ya...

Great, thanks! I tried to IM you, but couldn't seem to get that function working.

Are you happy to post the details here?

cheers,

Emma

hi! tried to email you too, didn`work either!?
i am not tooo happy leaving details. would you like to meet next tue at 6:30 p.m. with uns in the city??
greetings!

Just click the "PM" button to the left

<--- over here! (except not mine, but Rosana's).

For personal messaging, yes, do as Small Town Boy says.

There's no need to be nervous or shy about publically posting suggested meet up times and locations, however. In fact, it is better to post in public. That way more people know what's happening and will be able to join you.

hi emmaville, please let me know if you received my answer to your email.
Thanks. See you tomorrow! :-) Rosana.

I live in Munich now but plan to move to Bonn in 20days. I would like to meet some people in Bonn as well. I don't know many people in Bonn and my German is very poor. Is anyone out there to give me some information of living in Bonn?? I will take the German course there.

Welcome to Bonn!


I can help you with whatever info you need. You have to ask for it. For housing, I will suggest you to lookup in the local newspaper site for housing: Kalaydo

For learning German, this is a good institute in Bonn: steinke-institut

And as you are Korean, this restaurant Shilla might be of interest to you.

Cheers,
Bandu.

Bandu - Thanks, but I think you are replying to a post in another thread - possibly to a homeless, non-German speaking korean. That's not me. The person you are message probably won't see your message here.

I ain't replying to a different post. Just one above me is a Meeting people in Bonn from aga where she is asking for all that info. She is Korean.

Alles klar! Confusion over.

Aga - Welcome to Bonn. I'm afraid I can't give you much help with advice on Bonn as I am new here myself and still finding my way around, but I'd be happy to meet up for a coffee when you get here.

Hi Bandu, Thank you so much for your very kind information. Yes! I am a Korean and the information of Korean restaurant is very useful. I already have found a place to live(funny enough that is near Silla) but will check German courses when I am there. How is livig life in Bonn? Is Bonn really a sleepy city? Yes! Let´s arrage to meet up for a coffee or wine if anyone interested... I will be so happy to have some contact.

Hi Emmaville, Yes!!! I would like to meet you. I have lived in Melbourne for 2years as an exchange student. How is life in Bonn? I will be moving to Bonn on 18th of April.

Me too!!!

I moved to Bonn now. Is anyone interested to meet next Thursday(3 of May) afternoon for coffee or tea? Any good idea for place and time? I will be free after 2.00.
Best,
Aga

Hi Everyone,

My name is Ana and I'm a university student on holidays staying with my parents. I am originally from India, have Singaporean citizenship, and grew up in Malaysia. My parents have recently moved to Bonn and as I a) know no one here and speak no German, I don't have very much to do! I'm up for anything and excited to meet basically anyone so drop me a line!

Hi everyone

I am moving to Bonn from London. Reckon it will be a tiny bit of a culture shock ..

Is anyone still meeting up? ( Have seen the Pub Thread already) Please let me know, I'm keen to join in.

Hi,
I'm an italian boy, 27 years old, just arrived in Bonn and I don't know anyone.
I would like to meet somebody to go out with and have fun together because the life is boring with no friends.
I'm also available for a tandem, so if some of you
wants to learn italian is welcome!!! I need to master my English and also to learn German.

Cheers,
Riccardo
