>Can you elaborate on this further? I do not know what this means. I was not part of any local assemblies as I am not German, nor do I speak German, and many of the assemblies at 35c3 seemed to be treating me very coldly as they are just local clubs from all over Germany. (Understandable, I do not fault them).
You don't need to be german. International hackerspaces also get vouchers for CCC and travel in groups. Check with your local hackerspace.
Think of assemblies as "interest groups" and several are quite approachable over IRC/Matrix.
Feel free to also poke me next time you travel if you need people to chat with or hang around.
>yes. I was looking into this, Do you have a recommendation for a good website to explore train timetables and routes? What I have to be careful about is timing because if I need to stay overnight in Berlin then it may increase the cost such that if it wastes a lot of time, then it may not be worth saving the additional plane money(as many flights have stops in some other city on the way to Leipzig anyway).
Google maps covers most of the train transits in Europe. But the leipzig train went almost every hour except for in the middle of the night if i recall correctly. This isn't a transit that goes twice a day and should be easy to jump onto if you don't arrive in veryvery odd hours.
