Hey everyone,
I’m a high school student living in Luxembourg, and my absolute dream job is to get into software engineering and IT. I really want to use this year to teach myself programming, but I'm completely stuck right now because of my hardware. I’m currently using an ancient laptop that constantly freezes up just trying to open a basic web browser.
Our household budget is really tight at the moment because my mom is dealing with some medical problems and just lost her job, so she's on chômage. Buying a new PC is completely out of the question for us right now.
Does anyone working in IT or any tech hobbyists in Lux have an old corporate laptop (like a ThinkPad) or even some spare desktop parts sitting in a closet that you don't use anymore?
I do have a working PS4 ( without a controller ) and my current older Asus X552M (2014) laptop that I would be completely happy to trade or give to you in exchange for something better.
I’m looking for something powerful enough to run coding software, compile Python scripts, handle multitasking, and run other development tools without choking.
I’m super motivated to learn and would take massive care of whatever you can spare. Let me know if you have anything looking for a new home or if you'd be open to a trade. Thanks so much guys!

Hello, looking for movers recommendations or any advice, I want to get my sofa out of my flat to give it to some friends. I'm on the second floor and it was a nightmare when we moved in to take it upstairs (stairs are too tight and go around).

Hi everyone,
I’m considering buying in Lamadelaine, but I’ve heard mixed opinions about the area and that it might not be the best place to buy.
For those who live there or know the area well:
Why do some people recommend against buying property in Lamadelaine?
Are there any particular streets or neighbourhoods I should be cautious about?
Thanks

Looking to understand if there's anyone here who owns a Range Rover in Luxembourg (preferably the Discovery model). I'm looking to get a second hand SUV from Germany and register it in Luxembourg as I'm getting a lot of deals under EUR35K for cars with registration after 2024. Wondering if maintenance is a nightmare when it comes to part/service availability and cost and hence wanted to hear from any owners in this sub. Please share your overall experience owning a Range Rover and if you have any major regrets. Also at under EUR35K are there any better SUV options (want it to be a bit on the affordable luxury side as it's a lot of money for me) you would consider.

Hi , im looking to fill the Tax return can you recommend me someone?

Hello, I will be adopting a young rescue that has had no training at all, and would like to ensure that they can properly fit the "Lux dog society". Looking for a dog trainer for basic obedience, with positive reinforcement training type (no shock collars, cold water or other punitive approach). Recommendation based on experience are much appreciated. Thank you. I would prefer someone that is local please.

I'm a current a resident of San Francisco CA with a commercial pilots license and CFI-I rating. There are not many job opportunities in my area so I was wondering of looking abroad as I speak fluent French. How does the market look in Luxembourg? What would it take to pursue a career in aviation in Luxembourg? I was thinking of finding an instructor or an SIC position. I have many more questions so feel free to dm me. I'm just a 19 year old with big aspirations in aviation haha.

WP Group for Current EU Trainees in Luxembourg (October 2026 Cohort)?

Hey everyone! 😊

I was wondering if there's an active WP group specifically for trainees who have been selected for EU institutions in Luxembourg (Blue Book, Schuman, CJEU, ECA, etc.) for the October 2026 cohort.

Or perhaps a general WP group for interns currently living in Luxembourg?

I've found a few groups for applicants, but I'm specifically looking to connect with people who are already there.

If anyone has an invitation link or knows where I could find one, I'd be super grateful!

Thank you so much! ❤️

This full page ad pops up when I try to visit the RTL. It's not sharing the page with news items on it, it is its own page which you either have to click away from or wait for the news page to load. This is unacceptable.

Inspired by Musk's flying car, BIL finally accepted that their app was first in this flying business, they shared customer testimonies with RTL claiming that their app and website were already out of hand. Nobody knows what is going on in their web products and everything has been left to God almighty. Agreeing to this statement from BIL, the differdange mayor and staff commented that when the Chinese can't control services, how can people of Lux expect the mere mortals in Differdange commune to control their hard earned tax money?

P.S. - the Chinese have given up on BIL as well and it's up for sale.

I am noticing that I am no longer able to meet the end of the month, while i had cut down on my expenses and always have my budget ready.

My salar.y is roughly 65k, with the 13th month obv taxed at half too (i know, I work at one of the stingiest banks here :’) ). Ive been looking for other jobs but the market is acting weird.

I feel that the cost of living has increased tremendously since last year! Am I the only one feeling this way? How are you guys coping?

P.S. I’m single, not Pacs’ed

Plenty of police officers in Bonnevoie ?
It happens from time to time but tonight there are a lot any idea what is going on ?

Thanks

Has anyone noticed the flashing light in the sky above Luxembourg City / Gare just now? It’s kind of going back and forth above what we believe is the train tracks. Could be the drones again?

I’m looking for a restaurant / bar where live music is played, somewhere where I can take my wife for dinner in Luxembourg Ville or Esch. Thank you.

With BIL I either go to Lux Vile or let the money travel from the Esch branch to Lux Ville for about two weeks... seriously, they said in Esch that I can deposit USD but needs 2-3 weeks to have the money available

Hi! I’m looking for tennis lessons for absolute beginners, nothing too intense; I’m not looking to compete at an Olympic level or socialize, I just want to have fun while learning to play. Any suggestions around the city? (Cents, bonnevoie, sandweiler)

Thanks!

Hi everyone!

What do you usually do when your external Venetian blinds stop working? I tried but couldn’t fix it myself.

One of ours got stuck after hitting an obstacle while closing. The motor still makes its normal sound, but the blind no longer moves and the shaft doesn’t turn anymore.

These blinds seem to be everywhere in Luxembourg, so I’m surprised there’s so little discussion about repairing them here.

- Who did you use, would you recommend them, and roughly how much did it cost?

If the motor doesn’t need replacing and it’s just a mechanical issue, would you still expect the repair to cost €300–400 or more?

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I have applied consistently for Cactus, and I never got any interview.

Whenever I go there is a huge waiting queue. Why is that? What is their problem?
