This week I have:

1) Taken yoga and Sanskrit chanting classes at a Jivamukti yoga studio
2) Had my friend Thomas take me out to the young, cool, hip parts of town
3) Gone to Tacheles, an alternative art community in an abandoned building with a bar in the empty area of the former Berlin wall
4) Had the best Mediterranean food of my life
5) Met several pieces of German eye-candy who speak English
6) Seen everything on the subway from punks to flamboyant gays to clean-cut teenagers to old women in leather pants
7) Had brunch at a Russian diner
8) Gone to the Jewish Museum
9) Had several bottles of Berliner Weisse

So much art, history, culture…cool, interesting and friendly people…places to go out…you see everything - people expressing themselves as uniquely as they want and others don’t blink an eye. I love, love, love it here.

Catherine,

Julia had the same reaction on her recent trip to Berlin, and has informed us she is moving there after college. It's nice to think that the two of you might be there at the same time.
