Berlin

Recently I’ve been thinking tonnes about how much I would like to visit Berlin. After a very brief visit in July I have become fascinated with the city. It has so much history yet feels completely contemporary. The centre of the city acts as a creative hub that has attracted a mass of artsy individuals from all over the world, undoubtedly as a result of the cheap rent and cool bohemian vibe. You only have to walk around the place for a matter of minutes before you cannot help but absorb the fascinating street art that decorates all corners of Berlin. 

I am planning on taking a trip back next summer and one place I cannot miss is the Kunsthaus Tacheles – a former  department store that became occupied by artist squatters after the fall of the Berlin wall. Unfortunately, at the beginning of this year, half the residents accepted one million euro’s to leave the Tacheles, leaving a huge feeling of uncertainly of what’s to come for the place. I just hope I can visit the iconic building before the whole thing is bought out...
