Best times to propose
- 1. 9am in Berlin · 3pm in Singapore — Right at the edge of someone's day
- 2. 10am in Berlin · 4pm in Singapore — Comfortable mid-day slot on both sides
- 3. 11am in Berlin · 5pm in Singapore — Right at the edge of someone's day
Avoid 3am Berlin time and 4am Berlin time — only the other city is at work.

With 3 shared working hours, Berlin and Singapore 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.
