On November 24, there’s going to be a vote on changing the Basel Constitution to allow C permit holders to have passive voting rights. I’ve been looking into it, especially trying to understand the arguments for voting JA, but all I keep seeing are idealistic statements without much practical backing. I’m curious to hear your thoughts on it. I’m already leaning towards NEIN, but I’m trying to keep an open mind and convince myself otherwise.

Han s‘erste mol probiert und bin en grosse fan. Chan mer die selber mache? Kennt öbber es rezept?

I am travelling to Basel to see Enrico Sangiuliano at Nordstern on 15 November. I'm trying to plan the night, but the website of the club doesn't mention anything about the schedule for the night, only that it's open from 11pm to 6am.

At what time does the main act have its DJ set, usually?

Hi all! I am looking for a Gym membership for Nov and Dec only (have other plans afterwards). Can you recommend something that's not too expensive. Thanks.

I will be in Basel for work Nov 17-24 and I would love to find a trail with a tall scenic location to go to. I've been looking but I'm having trouble finding something that is relatively accessible via public transit that doesn't take several hours to get to.

Can anyone make recommendations?

Who has some skills and listens to your suggestions and doesn’t cost too much. Maybe with alternative touch if there is such a thing. (M, 27)

Ich kenne jemand, der seit ein Paar Monate eine solche Wohnung vermieten will (sogar zwei Wohnungen eigentlich, je 4.5), aber er sagt dass er keine Mieter findet. Ich wohne nicht in Basel, und deshalb weiss gar nicht, wie es dort wirklich aussieht, aber ich hätte jetzt gedacht, dass dieser Mietpreis schon angemessen ist. Oder nicht?

Hey, I'm looking for a shop where I could buy small electronic parts. I need a few led lights, some wires, a battery, nothing fancy, but because I need such a small amount I don't want to buy bulk online.. Is there such a store in Basel?

I thought all of them have drinkable water but today I got water from one and when I went to drink from my water bottle, it was super stinky… Now I’m unsure

I'm hoping to come to Switzerland for Eurovision in May. As always, price of accomodation is ridiculous whenever the host city is announced, so staying in Basel itself is most likely a write-off.

Can anyone recommend any nearby towns or cities that are easy to get to/from Basel?

The shows usually finish late - in the case of the final it'll be after midnight, so ideally somewhere with good nighttime travel options.

There's also the possibility of hiring a car - would that be recommended? Is parking ok? I'm thinking even if there's car parks near the outskirts of the city where you can leave the car and catch a bus it might be a good option.

Any ideas?

1. Would I need to get Moped permit before purchasing the Moped or after purchasing?

2. Would I need an insurance for Moped? And if so, then what will be the approx. monthly cost?

3. Would I need MFK for Moped? And if so, then what will be the approx. yearly cost?

4. Would I need parking for Moped or is that free?

5. What are the couple of better brands of Mopeds that are available in Basel?

6. Where are the mechanics for Mopeds in Basel?

7. Any other advise/tip you like to give regarding Mopeds.

Thanking you in advance.

Hi,

has anyone been able to get the German VAT refund back from zapptax?
From what I get, it generates a form that has to be validated at some terminal. For French VAT, I know the form generated by the app can be validated easily at the "Pablo" terminal in Basel airport, but what about the German VAT form? Is there an equivalent terminal close to Basel?

Are there any parts of the city where I might be able to spot some Halloween decoration? Missed the zombie walk, unfortunately.

Hi all, I have been advised lamb bone broth for my joints. Where can I get broth or the lamb with bones to be able to make it at home? Thanks.

Hey guys - most of us probably realised, every morning there are people in SBB smoking inside. It is not just disgusting to breath in smoke air but also very annoying to see people that inconsiderate to smoke inside and crowded area. Is there anything that can be done for this? Am I the only one annoyed by this?

Recently, I've seen a bunch of morons standing around Predigerkirche with signs telling people that abortion is against God's will bla bla bla. I've seen them this evening, but also during the days. I would really like to go there with a large sign telling them that every woman can decide for themselves. Anybody in? I'll bring my 2.5 months old daughter...😬

Liebe Basler redits, Am 26. Oktober habe ich mein Kinderanhänger (Croozer Kid Plus für 2, Version 2018, blau leicht verblasst) vor dem Marriot Hotel (Messeplatz) geparkt. Leider war der Trailer nach dem Besuch der Herbstmesse verschwunden. Der größte Verlust ist nicht dieser Trailer von 2018, sondern die darin enthaltenen Schulbücher. Wahrscheinlich ein Scherz und der Anhänger ist jetzt irgendwo im Busch ... Wenn Sie einen sehen (mindestens einen, der der Beschreibung entspricht und scheinbar keinen Besitzer hat, schreiben Sie mir bitte eine DM. Ein Dankeschön im Voraus…

Hello everyone, sorry if this question has been asked before. I am going to celebrate new year’s eve in Basel but i don’t know the city well. If there are any places interesting to celebrate it recommendations would be appreciated🙃

Hello,

Thank you.

Hallo!

Ich bin in der kommenden Woche vier Tage alleine in Basel und wollte mal fragen, was man in Basel so erleben kann?

Der erste Tag ist bei mir schon mehr oder weniger verplant, da bin ich beim Eishockeyspiel vom EHC Basel. Den nächsten Tag wollte ich mir die Stadt angucken und denke, dass ich damit auch gut den Tag fülle. Es ist ja gerade auch die Herbstmesse soweit ich weiß, da werde ich bestimmt auch mal vorbeischauen. Den vorletzten Tag hatte ich überlegt in den Zoo zu gehen, lohnt sich das? Was sollte man unbedingt noch gesehen haben?

Das ist mein erste Reise, die ich alleine mache und freue mich über jeden Tipp!

Viele Grüße aus Nord-Deutschland!

Hi Basel,

I am wondering whether GA allows me traveling to the final German station or do I need to buy a ticket for the last few stops in Germany?

Could anyone recommend an affordable dentist in the Basel/Binningen area? Ideally, someone who speaks English or Italian. Thank you in advance!
