Day 122

4 months: 17 weeks: 2928 hours: 175,680 minutes: 10,540,800 seconds.

We are alive (although I am hungover) in Berlin! Sorry for the lack of updates. I guess we are lazy or something. I have never had so much free time in my life and I dont even know what to do with it.

The last post in this blog showed you Stockholm. Since then we have been to France, Spain, Italy, and now Berlin. Someday I will have to do some backstories of our experiences in these different places because they were all amazing and full of incredible people. But for photos, check out the flickr

But now, we are living in a world of darkness. We find ourselves waking up daily from 12-2 after going out the nights before. We wake up to grey skies and then watch them turn into black at 4PM.

However, we can both safely say that Berlin is awesome! The city is massive, with copious things to do everyday and all night. We have explored abandoned locations like a massive hospital that hosted a party and Teufelsberg. We have partied until 10AM (not too uncommon for most here), played ping pong all over the city, bought kilos and kilos of produce and fruit for only a few euros from the Turkish market, kept warm with a coal heater, and gotten lost around the city for the most part.

We got a 2 month sublet here, and half is already passed by. Its amazing how time flies. Luckily we have met some really great people so far, and in my typical New York style, had a Sunday brunch that brought back fond memories!

As you can see though, we have a lot of time on our hands. Any recommendations on hobbies to take up? We have been watching Good Eats episodes on youtube to improve our cooking skills. But I think I want to buy a set of dominoes.
