Best times to propose
- 1. 2pm in Berlin · 1pm in Dublin — Comfortable mid-day slot on both sides
- 2. 3pm in Berlin · 2pm in Dublin — Comfortable mid-day slot on both sides

Avoid 9am Berlin time and 6pm Berlin time — inside working hours locally but outside them for the other city.
Daylight saving

With 8 shared working hours, Berlin and Dublin can run standing meetings without anyone giving up an evening — as long as the slot sits inside that window on both sides of the next clock change.
Sending a booking link avoids the arithmetic entirely: each side picks a time in their own zone and both calendars get the correct local time, including after a daylight-saving change. See how LemCall handles cross-timezone bookings.
