This week on Plus Forty Nine, we bring you a very special conversation with DJ Tofee and his German friend Oliver. Tofee came to Germany from Iraq, where he not only built a new life but also learned to speak German fluently, so much so that he now navigates everything in German. Since he doesn’t speak English, Oliver will be translating for him as we hear about Tofee’s journey, the hurdles he faced as a refugee, and the strong friendship the two have built.
Additionally, we break down Germany’s latest coalition talks, what stricter border policies could mean for expats, and the ongoing strikes disrupting daily life. And if you’ve ever wondered why Germans drive the way they do, we’ve got a fun segment on that too.
