How much should an intern be paid?

Apparently, the editors at DETAIL think that 500 Euros a month is sufficient for a first-time intern's starting salary. Unfortunately, as an intern at an architectural firm here in the U.S., I made more than that in one week. Granted this internship would be in Germany and therefore ridiculously amazing, I can't help but feel like I'm getting jipped...

So. Over the course of the next few weeks, I am going to do a little research starting at the German Embassy to figure out a few things:

1. The average cost of living in German and what that means exactly.

2. How much an intern should be paid

3. Where and how I should go about finding housing

4. The best places to party in Munich.



Looks like I have my work cut out for me!

More later.
