I have spent a lot of time in Berlin over the past year, and like it better than any other city I have visited, even my current place of residence, which is Seattle. I barely know how to speak German (however, my boyfriend does, thankfully), but even so, I still feel at home there. I have this unusual attachment to Berlin. If you're into somewhat whacky mystical stuff, maybe this could mean I may have lived there in a past life. Or not. Who knows.
On this upcoming trip, I am going to hopefully buy a flat. This will serve as a "vacation home" so I don't have to pay high rent for a vacation flat each time I go. I've mustered together what I hope is enough money to just pay cash for it and not have to deal with being financed by a bank over there.
On this trip, I will be staying in a flat in Prenzlauer Berg. Last time, we stayed near the Hackescher Markt, but weren't able to find anything near there that wasn't ridiculously expensive this time.
Until then, here are some pictures from when I was there in June.

I think this is Rosenthaler Str.
