One more day in Berlin, before we take the night train back to Belgium. Fortunately it’s not going to be super hot, there’s even a short drizzle this morning while we’re packing! Ready for check-out, we ask the concierge around nine thirty where we can leave the bike and bags and he replies that we… Continue reading A bunker with modern art

I take the first taxi in the row - the driver is not impressed with… Continue reading Some random strolling
I’ve just returned from one holiday last Wednesday, but I’m preparing to leave again! Just lucky, the previous holiday was with a group and I didn’t determine the date, the next one is with my mom and I didn’t determine that date either. At least I have a few days at home to do the… Continue reading The sleeper train to Berlin
