A list of Berlin things
A non-comprehensive list of things I'll miss from Berlin Published on thought
It's the last day of 2022, 5.40 AM, and I can't seem to sleep anymore. A lot of thoughts are going through my mind. Most of them relate to our move to France in less than a month. I won't dive into the list of logistical to-dos that is keeping me awake. I'll go the other way around and take a snapshot in time. A snapshot of our time spent in Berlin and the things I'll miss from here.
- Our morning bouldering routine with friends, climbing at 7 AM and going to La Maison for pastries
- The amazing Neapolitan pizza restaurants
- Getting our weekly groceries from Herbie Unverpackt and chatting with Carmela
- The extensive and delicious Turkish food offer in Neukölln
- The Middle Eastern breakfasts on Sonnenallee
- Being welcomed regulars at La Vineria, our local wine bar
- Cycling everywhere
- Sunny lunches and coffee breaks by the Landwehr canal
- Playing chess or working at Geschwister Nothaft Café
- Reliving the Southeast Asian food stall experience at the Thai Park
- Cooling down in lakes in the summer
- Being max. 15 minutes walk from everything we love
- Weekend trips in Poland to eat pierogi
- The strong and friendly bouldering culture
- Beers and picnics at Tempelhofer Feld
- The carefree pace of life
- Playing table tennis in the streets on summer nights
- Always discovering cool new places to eat and drink
- The diverse mix of people playing pétanque in front of La Maison
- The super spicy Sichuanese restaurants
- Glühwein at Christmas markets
- And all the precious friends we've made on the way
I have forgotten many things, for certain. But as my friend Max said: I am not crying, you are
.
Anyway.
