Anthropologist looking for young Europeans in Berlin

Hi people!

I am a student of anthropology at UCL London and currently doing research in Berlin for my final thesis. I am looking for young Europeans who have moved here related to the crisis. If this sounds like you, please get in touch and become part of my project!

A few words on what I do and why:

As much as this phenomenon of young Europeans moving country after the crisis has not been studied sufficiently, neither has Berlin as a place to move - opposed to London or other strong economic performers. So what I'd like to do is meet people who are in this situation, have a couple of conversations with them about their motives for moving, their expectations, their current situation and their vision for the future. This will give me a good idea about why people choose Berlin, what it offers, where it fails to live up to wishes and demands and where it is going. Also, I will particularly exemplify my study by looking at how people live and what they have around them in their homes. I'll be interested to see if you brought anything big or small with you, bought anything locally - if so what, where and why - or are just using other people's things on a very temporary basis. All of this will help to colour the general picture.

Contact me if you're interested, if you know anyone who might be or if you have any questions. I speak German, English and French. You can email me to isabel.bredenbroeker@gmail.com

Looking forward to hearing from you!
