I will be in Zweibrücken, near Saarland and near Kaiserslautern.

I will be doing software development from home. Specifically, I will 
work as a website developer. I am currently living in the UK but my visa 
is running out at the end of June so I have to go somewhere. My 
girlfriend lives in Germany and I want to see more of Europe, so I'll go 
there. I currently work for a company called The Learning Machine and I 
will continue to work with them but my status will change from employee 
to contractor or something like that.

I have started the application process to be a self-employed businessman 
in Germany, but that process won't be complete for a few weeks. Some 
things I can only do after I arrive to Germany. I'm a bit nervous about 
this. The German official assures me that everything is great and I 
should have no problems, but I won't be happy until I have the permit in 
my hands.

Cheers,
Daniel.
