VHS Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg's Secret?
I'm heading to the Volkshochschule Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg next semester. Heard it's got a crazy diverse range of classes, from traditional German to avant-garde film making. Anyone know the lowd… more
Forget the obscure historical stuff; VHS Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg's real secret is the sheer randomness. I took a course on fermentation once – making kimchi, sauerkraut, everything. The teacher was a total eccentric, showed up in a full beekeeper suit one day... Turns out, he kept bees on his balcony. Another time, a friend did this insanely detailed urban gardening class, learned how to grow edible flowers all over the place. You might not find it on the main course list – just browse the PDF catalogue carefully; they often have one-offs that only appear for a semester or two. Check the Künstlerische Kurse section; that’s where the truly wild stuff hides. Good luck, and prepare for unexpected adventures!
Titanic Gendarmenmarkt's Secret?
So, I'm heading to @Berlin next month and booked the Titanic Gendarmenmarkt. Heard it's swanky, but the online reviews are…mixed. Some rave about the location, others mention a slightly stuffy vibe.… more
It's definitely swanky, location-wise. The building itself is gorgeous. Breakfast…eh. It's fine. Not chaotic, but not exactly opulent either. Think…very nicely done, but standard hotel buffet fare. Plenty of choices, but nothing particularly memorable. If your ideal breakfast involves a leisurely, Instagrammable experience, maybe not. If you just need a decent start to the day before exploring, it'll do. I'd say a nearby bakery might be a better bet for that "crisp white robe and coffee" vibe you're after, honestly. There are some amazing bakeries around Gendarmenmarkt.
