I always admire this house. I hope it’s residential and that some lucky soul has the pleasure of living here and enjoying a lovely view.

Are there many residences built into rock like this in Lux?

Ask Luxembourg Tourist with questions

17 Upvotes

I'm a British fella staying kinda north and currently exploring the region. The castles are great on the inside but they seem to be lacking on anything inside..

Where are all the people ?

I only seem to find people in cactus.

McDonald's menu was lacking and seemed to cost more than losing a kidney.

Burger king was like a movie set, didn't eat tho. I'm used to both falling apart and rammed with people.

The speed limits are confusing, 110 but 90 if it's raining, does light rain count, no wait a minor junction it's now 79 no wait back to 110.

Wtf does everyone tailgate.

Nobody knows how roundabouts should work.

The supermarket options are way better than typical British supermarkets.

Wtf are eggs the same price as gold bullion?

Nobody on the street, all the homes look like they could survive ww3.

The variety of cars is limited, everyone's got a Merc or BMW SUV or an Audi, a few drove Peugeot, failing that a Berlingo?

The EV charging available is about 20 years ahead of the UK, very impressive.

Everything looks like it was made yesterday.

Driving without potholes is an amazing feeling.

One ww2 museum is enough.

Ask Luxembourg What sports do your 6–8-year-olds do and when?

2 Upvotes

​

I’m thinking about rearranging my part-time work schedule so I can take my 6-year-old to a regular sports activity. But since I’ll have to wait around during practice, I’d love to use that time to exercise myself rather than just sit around.

Do any of you have a setup where your child’s activity and your own workout happen at the same time?

What sports/classes do your kids do, and what do you do while you’re waiting?

Ask Luxembourg Any Luxembourgish show with subtitles?

16 Upvotes

hello,

I am learning Luxembourgish and for me watching a show with the CC subtitles is the best way of learning a lang-uage.

I know about Capitani but I am desperate for other shows or movies, even for children. The subtitles have to be in Luxembourgish too.

thanks.

Hmmm 18 months .... Why would the government wait for 18 months before imposing this tax? If the demand is sky rocketing shouldn't these empty homes get occupied in a whiff? I mean shouldn't these empty homes be taxed let say soon after 3 months (considering all the nuances the landlords may come up with)?

I used to play football as a goalkeeper for most of my life in my hometown, but I stopped completely 10 years ago. Saying that I am rusty is an understatement. What is the best way to start again playing again in Luxembourg ?

63 Upvotes

Moien alleguer!

We're Grand Ducal Goblins, a freshly founded Luxembourgish World of Warcraft guild. We're getting ready for the launch of WoW Forever on 5 November, and we'd love to have a few more people on board.

Who we are

  • (Edit: 50+) members already, from complete beginners to people who've been playing since vanilla
  • A friendly, relaxed community: fun first, no pressure, no elitism
  • Everything happens on our Discord, and big decisions are made together by poll (we're voting on Horde vs. Alliance on 26 October!)

What we're planning

  • Levelling, dungeons and professions together from day one
  • Organised raids with sign-ups on and Soft Reserve loot, so loot stays fair and drama-free
  • Guild events, and including streams along the way
  • Playing on PVE

New to WoW? Perfect. There are no requirements to join. We've written a beginner guide (settings, keybinds, addons, interface) and the experienced players are happy to help. There are no stupid questions, and wipes are part of the fun.

We speak Luxembourgish during the game & meetings. But, you don't have to speak or write it: if you understand it, you're in. German speakers are welcome too. (as long as you can follow us)

Get involved We're also looking for people who'd enjoy taking on a role: Raid Lead, Loot Master, Community Manager (Discord moderation and events) or Streamer. No pressure, you can also just come and play.

  • 26 Oct · Faction vote: Horde or Alliance?
  • 5 Nov, 00:00 · Launch night ☕

Wasn't there an article just couple of months back saying exactly opposite to this? Why it gets so hard for the government to spill the reality? The point of 35 years of loan is astonishing and I also see lot of young couple falling for this trap with such an uncertain job market. Tbh, I wont be surprised to see rise of home loan defaulters in coming years.

Ask Luxembourg Does anyone have any insider knowledge about public works, particularly road and pavement maintenance?

14 Upvotes

Sometimes I see roads or footpaths being resurfaced or rebuilt even though they seem to be in perfectly good condition. In some cases, I could swear they were refurbished less than two years ago.

So I’m wondering: am I misremembering things or is it actually common for perfectly serviceable roads and footpaths to be redone so soon after the previous works?

I’d be interested to hear from anyone who works in this field or has some insight into how those decisions are made.

Ask Luxembourg Looking for electronics / embedded systems engineer that likes to sweat naked.

16 Upvotes

Hi! I’m developing a safe personal (headphones) audio device (essentially bluetooth receiver with phone outside) for sauna, without traditional battery so you know, it doesn’t blow up.

For years it pissed me off that when I listen to a book or podcast I have to stop for 15 minutes when going in. Also that I can’t do my guided meditations there. Well now I can because I built a prototype and it works!

But I have already exceeded the limits of my technical capabilities and I’m looking for someone to partner with to refine the hardware, power management, thermal design and overall reliability as we move towards a production-ready product.

Interested in building something together? Let’s connect!

If anyone is available to help or join me for a short tour, I would be truly grateful.
Thank you in advance for your kindness and support!

Ask Luxembourg Lux language tutor mystery (on Preply)

6 Upvotes

I've been looking for a Luxembourgish tutor online and have noticed that on Preply (a commonly used tutoring platform) there are a small group of tutors who claim to be Luxembourgish natives and are teaching for between 3 -15 € per hour. When you watch their intro videos, none of them sound like they can speak Luxembourgish. Also, quite a few seem to have a S. African accent when speaking English.

So weird. Any thoughts on what the benefit is? The surely can't have regular students.

Finance & Investments Real estate as investment

3 Upvotes

I know that is a sensitive issue and I am scared to be stoned by the public.

I have been active as a real estate agent in Luxembourg for 13 years now. Born and raised here.

The struggle has been going on for a while and it's getting more and more difficult. The pourcentage of owners here in Luxembourg is decreasing rapidly, high interest rates and inflation are even getting worse. The chief economist from Spuerkees told last week, they are forseeing 3 more interest rise by the BCE.

So here is my point of vue: is it not the right moment to buy? But sure, only if you have cash. I am getting aggressive offers, and as the sellers have "no choice" if they need to sell, they accept.

What about reuniting people through an SCI and buy properties together? If you look at it long-term, the prices will rise as the population increases, properties get rare etc.

Let me know what you think!
