YO there, how you’ve been doing?
Fine? That’s great to hear, listen. I know I haven’t interacted with you for a
while but not because I have forgotten about our small society of passionate travelers.
No way. It’s just the vague start of the New Year. Vague at least for me. I don’t
have any plan longer than 1 day – I mean from morning till evening and I
can’t show off at the moment, giving you details about any recent or future trips
because I am not quite aware how this year will go on.
Anyway, the good thing is that
the lack of plans and actual organizing sometimes leads to active visualization
and use of one’s imagination.
My travelling passion was
validated in a way by my family with the Christmas gift they gave me. A book
called “501 Cities Around the World You
Must Visit”. The MUST in the title encourages me to promise I will
definitely visit them, although in my account I have just 70 cities now, not
counting those from my home country.
So, I decided to browse the book opening on a
random page just to see what I will pull out. If for a moment we are
superstitious enough, I should say I opened Berlin – Germany, Jerusalem –
Israel and San Francisco – United States. Amazing deal. If I manage in the
months following to make those imaginary book suggestions true, I will be more
than happy. At least I have the dream in my head and it gives me the motivation
to browse travel guides and the Berlin Tube map.
Here is what I could do and would do for you if you ask me in a polite way. I could open the book
on your behalf and tell you what your luck says. Don’t be shy. Dare to dream…
Have you ever been to a place that makes you feel as if you
belong there in a weird way, as if it brings back memories from previous lives
or feelings of a Déjà vu. This place for me is Berlin. I feel part of my soul
belongs there from Potsdamer Platz to Alexander Platz…
I spent an amazing time in the capital of Germany in March
and now every time I feel sad I just close my eyes and think of Berlin.
Everyone deserves an experience like mine and my visit to Berlin made a New
Year’s wish to come true. I won’t give you any tips for places in Berlin
because the city will just open up for you if you open up for it.
