Cool, my best buddy lived in Rüttenscheid near Essen (working for Karstadt I think), Dortmund is perfect for football (shit I live in Munich with that useless shit club Bayern) - Frankfurt was my home turf when i started Techno DJ stuff - been there every weekend but as city it is a shit hole (still) -but others think different.
PS: Realized i used three times "shit" - apologies for that.
Last time I looked Bayern are winning all around them with Kane scoring bucket loads. 😄. Yeah I would know the Karstadt well there. I found Dortmund a much bigger shithole than Frankfurt and then Gelsenkirchen is even worse than anywhere but every German knows about Gelsen. 🤣. Munich is a good spot. I was down there just sound visiting my former landlord in Frankfurt in a place called Mt Wank. I found it very funny.
Munich aso changed but it is ok -Frankfurt to me simply a shit hole as i worked there and had issues walking from trainstation to work - was hard - Gelsenkirchen many Assis (as we Germans say) but still nicer as the crowd in Frankfurt - ok biggest sht hole of course is Berlin lol
