Captivated by Berlin

This blog post was originally shared summer of 2014:

Coming back to Berlin after my four day getaway to Amsterdam has been quite amazing. With my new appreciation for the city and roaming around the city center filled with rich history around every corner. I can actually see myself living here for an extending period, and not only party. I see myself starting over new, with a different lifestyle in a city that offers a lot more space and activities to continue my growth. Which is exactly what I was looking for upon leaving New York. With that being said, I am currently applying for a Freelance work visa in Berlin that would grant me up to two year stay in this booming city. Wish me luck, as there are a few obstacles I must jump through before I can make this happen. Though as I always believe, everything happens for a reason. 

As for my outfit, I’ve said this before and always do during the summer in New York, Texas, and now Berlin. It is hot, hot, hot! At least in New York and Texas I had ac to escape to. Germany does not believe in such a cooling system, so I have been wearing endless tank-tops, but don’t want to always be exposing my shoulders. My best option is to throw a light button down over for protection from the sun, while also allowing easy access to take off and wrap around your waist if need be. This is something I apply while at the clubs here, because if you think a club with ac is hot. You have never been to Berlin club on a hot summer night. Talk about walking into a sauna and dancing. Sweat is pouring out of you within minutes, though for some crazy reason it’s okay and you keep dancing well passed the sun rises… Can you tell I am falling for Berlin?
