Funny that a lot of people don't trust me with details, giving directions, reading a map, though they do trust me to get lost, have accidents, causing random disruptions...
Never mind that. I really loved Berlin. Nice city. West Berlin is civilised, almost tranquil. Stayed in a hotel in Moabit, which apparently attracts turkish, arab, pole, russian dwellers. This probably explains the various ethnic restaurants, cafes and kebab houses. Colourful but still tranquil, as quiet as a city the size of Berlin can get.
East Berlin is another matter. Some special vibe there. You feel the edginess. I almost envy the crowd. Went to an indie club called Rosie's - rough, punk band, bratwurst in the yard, pils, enjoyed it. Reminds me of Denel, there used to be a club like that in Rousse, at some point I almost lived there.
I would love to spend some time in this city. It's worth checking out the museums. It's one of the great European capitals after all.
