the longest word in the world

Third line. Truly astounding. The lady who gave me this form assured me that "this is a real German word."


We rented an apartment! It is two levels with a living room, kitchen and balcony downstairs and two bedrooms and a balcony upstairs. It faces away from the street onto a nice garden. It has a fahrradparkplatz (fahrrad=bike, can you figure out the rest?) and a basement storage space for us. And, best of all, it is next to a park and only a few minutes from great coffee (they make cappuccinos with 1/2 and 1/2)!

Congrats! You should get us some photos of the apt.

And what's a German lease like? And what's the apartment obtaining process like?

Yea - photos would be great. Connie flew into action when she read your cookie comment! They're in the mail - 7 to 10 days to delivery

What is a "Mietschuld" freedom certificate?

A Mietschuldenfreiheitsbescheinigung is a certificate from your previous landlord/landlady saying that you have paid all owed rent.
