We organise your path abroad. With a little help from you!
Hello traveler, or how you would say in Hamburg: “Moin, Reisender”. We are happy that you got an internship place in Hamburg. IAESTE Hamburg wants to help you as much as possible for a pleasant stay in the city. In the following, we would like to give you some “Good-to-know”-Information for your stay. For any questions, write us at info@iaeste-hamburg.de or on Instagram.
First, you don’t need to worry about an apartment. We’ll take care of it. Second, for a warm welcome in the city, one of us will pick you up from the Airport. As well, we’ll help you with a Mobile-Phone Sim Card, Public Transport Ticket etc..
Please bring enough money to cover the first month, since the company pays you at the end of each month. As insurance, you usually get the DAAD internship insurance which includes a combination of health-insurance, accident-insurance and a private liability-insurance before coming to Germany. We will hand you out the insurance documents when you arrive. Last but not least, be aware that in Germany might have different types of sockets than your home country.
In Hamburg a lot of people speak English, so don’t worry, you can easily get through without speaking German. The salary will always cover the minimum cost of living, and it will hand to you in cash by us. To navigate yourself in the city, Google Maps or the HVV-APP (Public Transport App, but not in English) are the right choice. For travelling in Germany you might use the trains (exp. Deutsche Bahn, Flixtrain), the Busses (exp. Flixbus) or Ride sharing Services (exp. BlaBlaCar).
Important telephone numbers are the one from the Police (Nb: 110) and from the Ambulance/Firefighters (Nb:112).
Enjoy!
