Berlin

On the train I try to connect the memories from the past 4 days in Berlin. This was more that enough to feel the vibration of the past combined with new habits and mixed with different cultures. Here and there people are everywhere like a big ant house, tourists all the way from trains stations museum and shops to the Reichstag, pubs and clubs. Again Germans conquer the world but know in form of tourism so thumb up for this achievement.

I learn many things from my guide who moved somewhere from England as he told to us, quite funny because more and more people feel that they don’t belong to one place especially the place where you are born. I like the guided tours they are like teachers and learn you from the first hand where you can touch, hear and see at the same time. I’m not a type for a lot of theory better to get involved directly and it’s more fanny too.

   Never thought that I could experience Brasil in the middle of Berlin, when a group of people were performing capoeira with dance and songs. I don’t know if it was real or fake dance but for sure they affected me while passing thru the huge crowd who was looking at them. Maybe this is a reason why so many people moves to Berlin, feel at home without been at home.

The city feels chaotic after Stockholm people are in a rush to get something done the traffic is obvious not of the best one. I notice that the people just drink alcohol everywhere, not that is bad but not either good, compare to Sweden I think germans has a lot to learn how to handle alcoholic drinks in the public and social life. The speed of cars and buses in the city feels more like in London never know what can happen next but for sure nothing good. I prefer more controlled traffics where you have time to react if something appear in front of you, sweden gets again point of credit on this chapter no so strange that Sweden has the lowest mortality rate in traffic in Europe.

I wish I were in Potsdam which is about 45 min with the train from city center. The old capital of German for many years ago but still so splendid with their gardens and surrounding water. Reminds me somehow of Stockholm from the pics hope one day I will get there.
