抵達德國當天
The day of your arrival
抵達以後，記得要過海關。台灣的護照基本上可以在慕尼黑機場與法蘭克福機場半自動通關，但詳情必須查資料以及詢問現場人員。另外，掃描護照的方式也要確認。

After your arrival, remeber to go through the customs. Basically, Taiwanese passport can benefit you by giving you access to EasyPass in Germany, but you still need to search in advance and ask staffs on-site further for more details. In addition, how to scan your passport near these EasyPass gates is another important issue you should ask.
拿完行李以後，務必要確認居住的地方何時拿鑰匙以及時間是否有對上。如果這些都沒問題，就可以準備前往你要居住的地方。機場有免費WIFI，所以如果沒有買網路的人拿完行李以後，就可以立刻用google map導航。除了花貴森森的錢叫Taxi以外，也可以考慮跟我一樣選擇乘坐他們的公共交通運輸系統。要注意的是，雖然德國的公共交通進站不會有人查票，但是如果你不買票就上車，在車上被臨檢到的話，會是好幾倍的罰金，所以千萬不要僥倖。如果你是學生的話，也要注意，沒有攜帶學生卡的話，你沒有辦法證明你有在特定時段使用的權利，因此剛下飛機沒有學生卡的狀況，就只能把自己當一般人一樣買票。
Once you make sure you have carried all your luggage, when to get your key of your accomodation and the time you can arrive there is matched, you can prepare yourself to continue. Normally, these airports can provide you with free-WIFI, so you should use google map to navigate immediately if you have no SIM card for the access to Internet. Apart from spending a forturn on Taxi, you can try the public transport as I did here. Be attentive to this: although you will not be exmained for legal tickets by entering stations, you will be heavily fined many times of the ticket price if you haven’t bought the ticket and you are caught on the public transport. Thus, do not take any chances. Moreover, even if you are a student, you will have no certificate other than your student card to utilize your rights of use during some periods. Therefore, you should consider yourself as one of the public without any privilege under the condition that you just arrive there and do not have your student card.
使用google map應該大家都沒問題，但是還是提醒一下，如附圖:
"Leuchtenbergring"是要坐的車開往方向的最後一站名稱，所以以這個圖來說，到月台以後，請直接找S1 Leuchtenbergring 的班次，這個資訊可以直接看月台裡的電子看板或是進站前的提示紙板。
Even though everyone should be fine with google map, I still kindly remind you with the attached picture.
“Leuchtenbergring” is the last stop of the train you should take, so take this picture for example, you only need to check whether the train now is S1 and heads to “Leuchtenbergring” after arrving in the platform. This information can be confirmed via the platform display or the display in paper before entering the platform.
至於要怎麼乘坐慕尼黑的運輸工具呢?這邊就先不討論Bus,但是以S-Bahn或U-Bahn來說的話，基本上有兩個方式，要馬使用MVV這個app線上買票拿電子票(必須要在兩小時內使用)，或是到站台附近有購票機可以使用。購票機可以切換英文來操作。但要注意，如果是買實體票，必須要在進站的地方打卡，進站前有一個藍色的打卡機。如果沒有時間研究票的種類，選擇完起始站跟終點站以後，請選擇Einzelfahrkarte(Single ticket).

Ticket Machine:
Stamp Machin:
As for how to use the public transport, we should first put aside buses. For S-Bahn or U-Bahn, normally, there are two ways to purchase your tickets. You buy tickets either online via MVV app (only avialable for 2 hours) or on the spot via ticket machines near where you enter the station. In the process of using machines, you can switch the language to English if you want. However, for those buing tickets from machines, you should validate your tickets by putting your tickets inside the stamp machines nearby where you enter the station. If you don’t have time to dig into every kind of ticket, you can select “Einzelfahrkarte” or “Single ticket” after entering your destinations and the station you are inside.
到達居住地以後，要記得禮拜天除了餐廳以外，便宜的超商基本上都不會營業，還有要注意德國國定假日是不是就在最近，去決定要不要多買食物。像我10/1禮拜六抵達德國，除了要準備禮拜天的食物還要準備禮拜一德國國慶的食物。基本上，食物跟清潔用品可以在家裡附近超商購買，ALDI 或是LIDL都是很便宜的超商，至此，德國的第一天就算可以結束了。
After arriving your accomodation, please keep in mind that most supermarkets selling cheap items are not open on Sunday except resturants and whether there is any German holiday around the corner. Therefore, you can decide whether you should buy more food based on these two points. For example, I arrived there on Saturday, first Octobor, so I need to prepare food on Sunday and the next Monday, German National Day, as well. Mostly, you can buy all your food and cleaning tools in the supermarkets around your house like some very popular supermarkets ALDI or LIDL at very low price. Now, we can call it a day on your fisrt day in Germany.
抵達德國兩周內
During Two weeks after your arrival
接下來的兩周內，務必完成以下三件事，一個是入籍，一個是限制提領帳號的啟用，最後則是保險的繳費。
其餘準備事項
Other preparation after your arrival
銀行開戶
Opeining a bank account
有鑑於網路銀行的使用風險，因此建議可以趕快辦一個實體銀行的戶頭，基本上這邊開戶都需要付每個月的保管費，但大部分銀行會給學生專案，所以可以有最多十幾年的時間不用付管理費，如:Stadtsparkasse München。
Given the risk of use in online banks, I recommand yo to open your bank account of a brick-and-mortar bank. Despite the fact that most banks there need their customers to pay a monthly payment of custodian fee, they also provide students with a student special plan so that you don’t need to pay them for more than 10 years, like Stadtsparkasse München.
MVV學期票
MVV semester ticket
拿到學生卡以後，基本上根據現行的制度:https://www.mvv-muenchen.de/tickets/zeitkarten-abos/mvv-semesterticket/index.html
就可以在假日以及平日晚上六點到早上六點盡情使用大部分MVV的運輸工具了，包含S-Bahn, U-Bahn, Tram, Bus 跟一些慕尼黑地區的區域性火車。不過因為通常上課時段不是這些時段，所以花個209歐元買學期票是相對划算的選擇。
After receiving your student card, you can take advantage of most MVV vehicles, including S-Bahn, U-Bahn, Tram, Bus and some regional trains in Munich according to the webiste above. However, your courses usually do not fall on these periods, so it is still a better and worthwhile choice to purchase a semester ticket at 209 euros.
