Going to the Weihnachtsmarkt again this weekend? Take those gloves off! I’ve a less conventional way for you to get that warm, fuzzy, Christmassy feeling inside you (and still have your Glühwein fix). It’s a Christmas love story between a group of Bohemians in 1830s Paris, full of life-affirming merriment raucously fuelled by alcohol and … Read more ‘La Boheme’ Will Get You Feeling Festive, Even If The Glühwein Fails To

Souping is the Doping of the Office Winter Olympics

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

It’s really dark. Has anyone else noticed? Look outside now. See? And I’ve still a few hours of work to do before I’m done for the day. When it’s like this, all I want to do is quit working, draw the curtains on the night, curl up at home and attempt to chomp my way … Read more Souping is the Doping of the Office Winter Olympics

Stop Swiping. The Inner Circle is the Best Way to Find Love in 2017

header

Us Berliners live a seemingly perpetual youth: dancing and dosing and recklessly adventuring through the night. “Maybe I’ll settle down someday,” is the actual hurrah of a 40-something guy we’ve all met on the U8. (Those that went home with said 40-something guy do maintain regrets.) But finding noble partners with whom to stride off … Read more Stop Swiping.

To the rest, you know what I mean. They have names like Eve, Emma and Casper and they all want to sleep … Read more Meet and Quickly Sleep with Bruno, the Berlin Way to Mattress Shop (Without Regrets)

Last Week in Berlin: Christmas is Coming! (Whether You Like It or Not.)

tree

BERLIN LOVES YOU, even if you’re one of those lebkuchen-crazed hopefuls who decorates the Christmas tree November 1, eager for Jesus to come.  And Berlin STILL Loves You if you use the street as your personal elf parade, far before cracking open that Advent Calendar. It just assumes you’re kind of a Christmassy always-one-step-ahead fashion whack-job.  … when … Read more Last Week in Berlin: Christmas is Coming! (Whether You Like It or Not.)

It’s getting cold and grey out there. Long, dark, lonely nights are ahead in Berlin. A time to stay in and think.

We hate to bother you under your five-blanket-layers and steaming Vitamin D lamp, but between now’s dismal blockage of grey clouds and next year’s assured summer (if Trump doesn’t burn down the planet before then), there are a few weeks of twinkling, holiday hope. The sober kind. The Christmas Garden Berlin in the exquisite Botanical … Read more Christmas Garden Berlin is a Twinkle of Hope in an Otherwise Hellhole Year

berlin-loves-you-halloween-photos-facebook-1

“If you can see things out of whack, then you can see how things can be in whack.” — Dr. Seuss Berlin streets were certainly whacked this past weekend. Erratic energy, vibrant costumes, bloodied lovers–we caught the moments on film, before the monsters retreated to their caverns for the long, Berlin winter’s night. The eyes of … Read more Last Week in the Streets: This is Hallowe’en
