Going Dark

July 31st, 2008 · No Comments

Today is the day I move into my Berlin apartment, and it marks a change in how life has been for me so far. The big difference – no internet! I’m pretty sure I’m an internet addict, and I spend far too much time online every day. I know what a distraction it is for [...]

Week One in Berlin

July 27th, 2008 · No Comments

Well, I’ve now been here a week, and I’m feeling rather settled. I’m still somewhat shocked at how quickly all the “Must Take Care Of” things were crossed off my list, and now I’m left with nothing but to live and enjoy the city and my friends here. Saturday was my first whole day [...]

Slowly Settling

July 22nd, 2008 · No Comments

Well, I’m starting day three here in Berlin, and things are just starting to settle in. I’ve managed to line up some apartments to look at (two of them today), find a language school, and get a European SIM card. The neighborhood where Carsten lives is beautiful – we’ve been walking around a lot, checking [...]

Off the Boat

July 19th, 2008 · No Comments

Well, the cruise is done. My family managed to get off the boat and make it to the airport in one piece. I put the rest of the crew on their flight to Boston, and now I have 5 hours to kill before I finally fly to Berlin! 
I loved being on the boat – it [...]

St. Petersburg

July 16th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Russia was a trip – you get a definite impression of a city based on its port, and the port in St. Petersburg was…. well, a dump. The city itself was amazing – so steeped in history. I got to spend a day in the Hermitage, which was a total dream come true. The collection [...]
