things that are cheap in berlin: wine, chocolate, meat, and beautiful local clothes ( blutgeswschwister ). i’m just concentrating on these for the moment, i’ll let you know if i run into anything unreasonably expensive. also, yesterday i met the pianos that i will be working on and they are very nice. alex ross’ book The Rest Is Noise continues to inspire.
Enjoy the time, as long as the summer weather still lasts. A book, some chocalate and a bottle of red wine is a good blend.
Any idea if you may come down more to the South, prefered in the Karlsruhe/Stuttgart area? Until now I find only shows far in th eNorth and Northeasst.

Not too far from Friedrichstraße… 😉
You heard here first…!
And, while we are at it, videos with Veda (and Dan Mangan):

ah, we already found samadhi! it is very good. haven’t made it to the chocolate palace yet, but we will.
Well, my sister recommended me this restaurant in April:

We never tried it in the end, but it seems very interesting. Not sure if Anders would enjoy it, though.
oh berlin – i wished i could have spent more time there –
i was going to say that if you get a chance, a field trip to the cassopeia club in friedrichshain is well worth it.. such a strange place – apparently it was an old train station that they turned over to artists… the artwork on the buildings is amazing, but it is going through a very organic process of evolution… i loved it. i did a search through flickr though, and apparently there was a big fire there at the end of august… so the area might not be in the best of condition… but if you get a chance, it is well worth the trip. it is on revelerstraBe behind a fence. it is like this weird little world of its own.
hoffentlich, du und deine Familie haben ein fantasiche Zeit!
