11 weeks in Berlin (tomorrow!), but there's one part of my life that has gone largely unmentioned on here: my love life.As my blog site makes my site into a book I can keep forever after I finish it, I want everything important to be here. And the last 9 weeks were important to me. I didn't want to talk about it at the time, but now is the time where I guess I'm allowed to.Nine days into my time in Berlin, me and Nadi (my housemate for those who haven't been keep...

Ever had one of those weeks where everything just seems to fall into place? I just have, and it sure does feel wünderbar! During Caron's visit last week (she has been instructed to write up a report of said visit for the blog, so that will hopefully come soon!), we went to Ku'damm for some shopping therapy.

Which is good news for the Berliners in my life, and also means I'm less likely to embarrass myself when meeting new people. But Felix...

I've been having some epic fun recently, and expanding my friend circle outside of the two people (however lovely they might be!) I have been spending almost all of my time in Berlin with! I have 3 separate blog posts to write and post, so expect an inundation in the next day or 3! First of all, there was the small matter of my first visitor from England: my brother.
