Description

Ever wondered what the big machines in the entrance areas of supermarkets are for? Don't know where to get rid of glass? Stressed out by the many waste bins and don't know what has to be thrown in which? Want to save money? Let us help!

Pro Tips: 

collect your bottles and use the deposit on your next purchase
throwing glass away during Sundays is illegal
rinse meat packages before throwing them away
empty out the 'Biomüll' (brown bin) daily during summer
carton milk containers belong in the 'Gelber Sack' :)
when in doubt: the black bin is a life-saver
drinking tab water spares you carrying heavy bottles

This podcast is directed to our international students. We talk about study-related issues but also about your new life in Germany which can be tricky: Where do I get curtains? Which shops are cheap? Where do I find jobs? But we also want to bring you closer to the country and its people, get to the bottom of Swabian peculiarities and discuss German culture with internationals - and what is that anyway? Tune in! Further information for international students and prospective students can be found here: https://www.uni-hohenheim.de/en/office-of-international-affairs
