What are the must-have items Germans have at home?

Can there ever be a German home without a potato peeler? Or the family's beloved breadbasket? When DW's Shabnam Surita moved to Germany from India in 2017, she was new to the German housewarming traditions and household must-haves. Now, her home is the perfect mix of her life as an Indian in Germany.

So, what does that look like? In the Meet the Germans video series, Shabnam looks at all things German, but from her perspective. You'll see her trying out typical German activities, providing insider tips about life in Germany and helping other newcomers like her understand Germans a little bit better.
