On the Show this week

Simon tackles the hit and miss nature of German shopping online to buy a new lawnmower, while Nic explains why he likes the indifference of German customer service.

We’re discussing romance and dating in Germany this week, Simon and Nic talk about how they met their wives and learn about the financial realities of online dating in Germany. We also find some of the more niche online dating websites.

We ask if the British are really as suave and sophisticated as they appear with a guide to dating in Britain and explain why the pub is an important place to meet new people.

Finally, we welcome our first guest to the podcast as 40percentgerman.com guest contributor Dilini Algama joins us to talk about her experiences of German dating and using dating apps in Germany.
