My German SIM card doesn’t work. I found out when Roman showed up at five after two and apologized for being a little late. …late? I thought we said we were meeting at 3p.. He tried leaving me a message. I looked at my phone – It says no service with my German SIM card. …but the international one works fine. ..Lovely.
We set off to knock a few things off the massive list. Step one: Bank account. It’s necessary, and makes things a lot easier, because JLU takes the rent from the bank account each month.
- - - Too bad I’m not studying in Switzerland for the semester. I’d feel more high profile with a Swiss bank account than with my German one. - - -
Next thing on the list was German health insurance. …Which turns out you have to buy a minimum of 6 months (even though I’m only here for 4.5) and what I have thru UW-Oshkosh as part of my study abroad fees supposedly doesn’t cover me here. …What’s the point of study abroad health insurance if it doesn’t cover you abroad??
6 months at €57/month = €342. (I later found out my study abroad insurance does cover me, so I went back and cancelled the €350 insurance.)
