Guys, I recently arrived from Jo'berg. Started work begin October for a small company called Siemens. Maybe you've heard of them? Anyway, are there any other South Africans out there in Munich? Shurely there must be?

There's quite a few Seth Efricans about the place.

Good luck and welcome.

Why were the South Africans upset when the UN weapons inspection team visited Cape Town?

Because they don't like Blix.

Boom boom.

A new South African wine shop is just about to open on the Fraunstrasse, Isarvorstadt. The opening party is tomorrow night. A friend of a friend of mine is playing drums there. Apparently all are welcome. See: Taste of Egoli

Hi there!

I have just started my studies here in Munich and was wondering if there are any South Africans about? Unluckily I left SA at the age of ten, so now I am more or less "germanized", anyone feel like helping me get back to my roots?
Jimbo
I'm just back from an Stammtisch and there happened to be a South African Stammtisch on in the same place at the same time - maybe ten or twelve people there, so there are definitely other people from SA out there.

That SA Stammtisch is always on the first Saturday of the month so now you know when the next one is...
Silver_Angel
Hi all!

I organise the SA Stammtisch for Munich.

It happens first Saturday of every month, 7pm onwards, at the Löwenbräukeller - Stiglmaierplatz.

If anyone needs any more information or would like to be added to our mailing list, see the website: SA Munich

I'm a South African that's been living in Munich for the past almost three years. There's quite a big community of Saffers in Munich and always more joining.

We do organise get-togethers in between the Stammtisches too... depending on the weather and season, anything from an outing to the Christkindlmarkt to braais in the park! smile.gif

Cheers
Michelle

Hey all,

Just wanted to say the Braai on Saturday went really really well, even though the weather wasn't 100%. Goes to show that Souf Effrikens can braai anywhere anytime!!!And to think we even had BILLTONG!!! Doesnt get any better than that.

To all those who couldnt come...we missed you. To all those who did come , THANKYOU VERY MUCH for making it such a great occasion. Look forward to seeing EVERYBODY at the next one.

Hi,

so no new comments on here recently.

Are any of you still out there?
melrose
Hi Sandals,

my husband and I arrived in Munich appoximately three weeks ago. We're from the beautiful Cape.

I bought Mr's Balls Chutney at Hamburger, very happy about that! And will make a nice Malva Pudding soon to ease the Homesickness!

Where in SA are you from?
Silver_Angel
Hi Sandals & melrose

Yip there's still plenty of South Africans in Munich. biggrin.gif

I myself moved back to Johannesburg last November after four years in Munich!

The monthly Stammtisch also still takes place, so if anyone is interested, see: www.sa-munich.com

Regards,
Michelle
aka Silver_Angel
More tea, Vicar?
I'm an Saffer too.

If you need any advice or help or anything, just txt me (but only been here 7 months from London).
Sandals
HI

Very sad to say that I wont be able to make the Stammtisch

Anyone interested?
maddul
Im game.

Hello there,

Have only been in Germany for the past 3 weeks, and will be here for the next 3, with husband, who works for Siemens. We are originally from Cape Town.

I know that you are all based in Münich, but is there, or do you know of any S.A's living in my side of the world, or any other contacts? That would be Forchheim, or any in Erlangen, or even Bamberg area.

Your get-togethers sound lekker, but alas, we don't have a car yet, and the train takes 2,5 hrs to get there, so it would be a bit difficult to get there, even though we would LOVE to attend. Still adjusting to the culture and people, as well as the transport system.

So PLEASE, anyone, HELP, CONTACT, ANYTHING...

Would love to hear from people. wacko.gif
Sandals
hi

welcome to Germany...
not sure if anything happens in Bamberg area but if you
make it to Munich or there abouts in the next few weeks
give us a shout...

In the meantime, hope you enjoy your stay.
klein1
Thanx Sandals,
Will do that. Defn sounds like you guys are having fun. Would have been great to be in that vacinity since husband will be away next week, leaving me behind.
Told him about all you guys there in Munich, so he's keen too. So will defn make the effort.

Hi Guys

Hi Klein1,

I am a Saffer and will be in Erlangen in September on business, also with another South African colleague of mine. We're also from Siemens.

So maybe you'd like to join us for dinner?

Regards
Nu

Hi

We lived in the Landkreis Bamberg for 4 years but have moved to Bad Aibling (close to Munich). I really miss living there as I find the region(Franken) much better than Oberbayern.

We are often in Bamberg as my parents-in-law live close to the city. Maybe we could meet the next time we are there. smile.gif
Ulysses
Most of the South Africans go to the Outland to watch the football and rugby at Rosenheimerplatz. There's also a SA Stammtisch which meets once a month. I'll pm you their contact details.

Hi, welcome to TT!
There are loads of South Africans roaming about the place.

Type in South Africans into the search bar on the top right and you'll find loads of info about being a South African in Munich.

As far as English TV sports goes - you can always check the TV listings and different bars in the right hand column of the TT main page. The Arc pub shows most English sports and you can request to watch particular games there too.
NOFXmike
I'm pretty certain there are NO south africans, sorry
DDBug
ph34r.gif nope, especially none reading this thread...
Marshbot
I think I saw one in a dark alley way last week. Could have just been shadows though.

Timmeh
If you're into watching the Boks lose ( tongue.gif ) the Arc in Schwabing is a good spot, they play loads of ruggers, cricket, footie etc. Tends to draw a fair number of Saffers when you guys are playing
Ulysses
www.sa-munich.com

There you can moan and groan about how shit it is here and how great it is back home. Actually, there are some nice people there. And they'll let you know the rest i.e. where all the Saffers are watching...the All Blacks lose again in the World Cup!
marrs attack
hey mark.im a capetown boy living in munich for the past 7 months with my german wife.would love to get together for a beer and a chat.let me know when and where and maybe we can get a small group together.
Keydeck
Marrs attack, Mark's post was three years ago and the last time he logged into TT was in July. Just read some of what people say and go along to the places that they say to go.
