Travelling to Germany: checking out Berlin as well as Reuniting With good friends
“I believe we’re going to fly to Germany from Thailand”, announced our good friend Jarryd.
Our response?
“We’ll book our flight as well as satisfy you there”!
After wondering where we must choose 13 days between Malta as well as the Caribbean, we lastly have a plan of action.
We are Berlin bound!

Berlin is a destination that we’ve wished to travel to for lots of years. It’s really a location that we believed we would online as digital nomads one day. There’s so much going on in Berlin – it’s a city with an underground music / club scene; a location for the “hipsters” as well as art lovers; a foodie’s paradise; as well as of course, a top area for history as well as culture buffs.
With underground nightclubs (literally, they’re below ground), the graffiti-painted Berlin Wall, an island of museums, abandoned buildings as well as quirky neighbourhoods, we’re sure that booking our flight there will verify to be a great choice.

The city of Berlin itself has tons to offer us travellers, however there are many day trips that we’re thinking about as well. even though we only have 1 week in the city, we believe we’ll have time to head out of Berlin as well as check out a few of the surrounding areas.
In particular, we’re planning to rent a cars and truck to see the city of Leipzig, which is about 2 hours away as well as is understood for its culture, arts, music, as well as the second oldest coffee shop in Europe! As we are coffee lovers, we’re absolutely going to inspect that out.
Oh ya, we like coffee
We’re likewise believing about heading to Dresden, which is 2.5 hours away. This city utilized to be understood as the Florence of the Elbe because of its gorgeous collection of art as well as architecture. Sadly, much of the city was destroyed by WWII bombings, however obviously a great deal of restoration has been completed as well as the city has returned to its lovely self again.
We liked Florence, as well as I’m sure we’ll be surprised by Dresden.
If Dresden is anything like Florence, we’ll like it!
Finally, we’ve heard that Potsdam is a prominent trip from Berlin, as well as it’s only a 45 minute drive away. up until 1918, Potsdam was house to the Kaiser as well as Prussian Kings, which indicates that there are some charming palaces as well as formal gardens. But, I believe we’re a lot of looking ahead to inspecting out the Sanssouci Castle!

Renting a cars and truck is always a great deal of fun. Our recent road trips in Macedonia, Croatia as well as Albania were incredible, as it enabled us to get off the beaten path, as well as provided us flexibility to go where we wanted, when we wanted.
Driving in Germany will most likely seem like a piece of cake after the interesting road conditions we withstood while road-tripping around Albania. Although, understanding us, I’m sure that we’ll still handle to get lost!
Getting to Berat, Albania was difficult, however worth the crazy journey
Apart from checking out the special city of Berlin as well as surrounding areas, we’re a lot more than a bit ecstatic to satisfy up with our good friends ?
As full-time travellers, our friendships are rather fleeting. We satisfy people, we take pleasure in their business for a few days, weeks, or months, as well as then we state goodbye.
Saying goodbye to good friends is never easy…but it’s excellent to satisfy up again!
It can be tough to part methods with people that we’ve shared some excellent times with, however since we’ve satisfied people from all around the world, it’s truly interesting when we can message them as well as state “Hey, we’re pertaining to see you”!
In the situation of Berlin, that person is Henrik.
If you’ve been complying with our blogging journey considering that it very first began method back in 2012, you may keep in mind this ukulele-playing character. We satisfied Henrik during our month spent backpacking around Mozambique, as well as he truly enriched our travels there.
We’ve stayed in get in touch with with Henrik considering that we split ways as well as are truly looking ahead to satisfying up with him again, as well as it just so occurs that he just recently transferred to BErlin. Parfait!

Les personnes que nous satisfaisons sur la route (régionales et étrangères) ont vraiment un effet sur nos expériences. Ils peuvent s’associer au voyage car ils ont aidé à le façonner – avec le rire, les larmes, l’exploration ainsi que les aventures.
Nous avons la chance d’avoir des amis que nous pouvons indiquer «Hé, gardez à l’esprit quand nous…» ?!
Hé Henrik… tu te souviens quand nous sommes tombés en panne au milieu de nulle part au Mozambique ?!
Nous envisageons de nous souvenir de notre séjour au Mozambique avec Henrik. Nous avons passé près de 3 semaines avec lui ainsi que des aventures assez incroyables – de la plongée avec tuba avec des requins baleines, de la plongée de plongée avec des baleines à bosse, de l’auto-stop du sud au nord, ainsi que de la navigation dans les îles désertes ainsi que de camper sur eux!
Il en va de même pour Jarryd ainsi que Alesha, il sera excellent de les rattraper ainsi que de discuter de voyager à Plovdiv, en Bulgarie, les événements fous du Forum du tourisme mondial à Istanbul, ainsi que bien sûr, notre Occupations partagées – Blogs de voyage!
Nous louons vraiment un appartement ou un condo avec ces deux-là, et je suis sûr que nous aurons autant que des schenanigans autour de Berlin ensemble.
Nous envisageons de nous satisfaître avec Jarryd ainsi qu’avec Alesha!
Du sud au nord (droit comme le corbeau) le 27 mai, nous disons au revoir à la charmante île de Malte, notre appartement ou notre condo ainsi que nos bons amis ici.
Cela a été un extraordinaire de deux mois, ainsi que nous espérons qu’une journée de personne bientôt, nous pourrons nous reconnecter avec les bons amis que nous nous sommes faits ici, ainsi que de croire à nos moments de plaisir ensemble: «Hé, gardez à l’esprit lorsque nous…”?!
Mis à part nos vidéos, nous n’avons pas beaucoup publié sur Malte sur le blog, mais il arrive bientôt. Nous allons produire des guides approfondis, voyager des commentaires, des essais d’images ainsi que tous les autres, alors restez à l’écoute. Ce blog sera rempli d’informations sur la vérification de ce pays européen quelque peu hors piste.
Hé, gardez à l’esprit quand nous avons eu un barbecue dans une grotte ?!
