The KMC Local

The five-minute email that helps you feel at home in Kaiserslautern: base news you can use, weekend-worthy local events, and Germany news that actually affects you β€” all in plain English.

Between in-processing, house hunting, and learning the hard way that everything closes on Sundays, nobody has time to chase six Facebook pages and a German news site. So we read them for you.
