Spreebaden 2.0 aber, das ist eine ganz andere Nummer. Stellt euch vor: einen kulturell-stimulierenden aber hirn-ermüdenden Tag im Museum verbracht und durch die Touri-Massen auf der Museumsinsel gekämpft, Badehose an, rin inne Spree jehüpft! … Read more Spreebaden 2.0

Dachterrasse und Restaurant

  The building which houses hotel-maverick-charlatans 25hours Hotel’s latest venture has somewhat of an iconic status in West Berlin. Built in the fifties by architects Paul Schwebes and Hans Schoszberger, the idea was to create an architectural expression of a new attitude towards life marked by dynamism, freedom, lifestyle and consumerism.

Der Kinderbauernhof im Görlitzer Park ist kein einfacher Streichelzoo, nein, hier sollen Kinder ganz spielerisch den verantwortungsvollen Umgang mit seinen Bewohnern lernen.

Paul Salamone

Why did the potato get the munchies? Because it was baked. See, vegetables can be funny too – at least as funny as fruits, cats, internet memes,  and jokes about white men not being able to dance. A case in point is We Are Not Gemüsed, the comedy open stage held on Tuesdays at Sameheads bar … Read more We Are Not Gemüsed, stand-up comedy on Tuesday nights
