who is coming to Berlin?
Well, in my German class, we are a wild bunch. There’s us two, one French, one Chinese, one Saudi, one newzellanden (I think this is the way it’s spelled), one Swede, one Canadian and one Uzbekistani an. All different. All liking Berlin.
The French girl was telling me Berlin is a better city to be living in than Paris. That may be true…I liked Paris when visited last year.
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
I was there an hour ago when Mr. Leonard Cohen sang the verse above. And a chill came down my spine when the people of Berlin shouted the name of the city. It was a great concert, a great singer, some great songs for some great fans.
O2 held about 20.000 people that witnessed the last tour of a great troubadour. Thank you, Mr. Cohen.
language barriers
How do you tell an Englishman that you do not speak German on the streets of Berlin? In French, of course.
renting a car in Berlin is hard
Took me half an hour to rent a car. No sites, no usability, no English, no cars, no car details…
How do you want to rent a car to foreigners if you do not have a website in English? And why do you send me the order details in German?
cold air
I went on the balcony to see if it has rained, and a breeze of cold air hit me.
Berlin smells now like Romania in the mountains. Cold, fresh, clean, refreshing. Sounds like a commercial. But it’s not.
It’s Berlin
