Hi! I'm from Windsor, too, but have lived in Germany for the last 11 years. I live not to far from Frankfurt along the Rhine. I think you will like it here.

Finding a job not being able to speak German is a little hard, except in 2 fields: english teacher or IT. There is actually a shortage of qualified IT people here, so you may have good chances there. I don't know about Berlin as being the IT place to be, I think that is more in the south, in Munich and area. As for teaching english, the big companies look for native speakers, but they also want teaching experience. Even the tutoring companies won't hire you unless you have some sort of educational background.

I think it would be a really good idea to learn a bit of the language BEFORE leaving Canada. You will learn it quickly once you are here, but you will learn it faster if you have a base to build on.

Let me know if I can help you at all!

Take care,
Stephenie
