After a short time, their everyday life was overshadowed by discomfort. "I have never felt as insecure as here," she said desperately on Reddit.

unexpected challenges for emigrants

What does it mean to find a new home in a foreign country? It was not the longed -for fresh start for the Spaniard. The culture shock met her with full force as an example of the misunderstandings that exist in society without scruples. When looking for an apartment, her friend was ignored and only the male companion was taken seriously. The disappointment grew with every further incident, and the feeling that security is only an illusion was strengthened in their consciousness.

The disturbing experiences of the emigrant are not isolated cases. Under your contribution there are hundreds of comments that report similar experiences. One user told about an incident on the train, in which a drunk man molested his fellow travelers, while others reported situations that robbed them of trust in their surroundings. The Spaniard, who once enjoyed the open and lively atmosphere of Madrid, is now forced to have pepper spray with them in Germany. A decision that only reflects part of her new reality.

uncertainty: a growing problem in Germany?
