Germany it is not common to sell 0.33l water bottles. Usual sizes are
0.5, 0.7, 1.0 and 1.5 liter bottles. The price for a mineral water
bottle (PET) in a supermarked like Aldi ranges from 19 to 39 cents.
Higher quality water (more minerals) is in a range of 0.90 to 2.00 EUR
i looking for master study in performing art. can somebody tell me which good uni in hamburg?
Hamburg has a good job situation, with many international companies.
Most still expect you to have some knowledge of german language though.
Rents are much higher, than what this website suggests, so you'd be better off with a job before you arrive.
Please advise so I have an idea. Thank you for your time.
