Many of you have hear Graham and I talk about how great Berlin is. After spending just over 2 weeks in Berlin over a 3 month period I can honestly say there isn't a week that goes by that I don't think of going back. It is the first place I have visited that I have ever thought about staying and would consider moving there if I could work.

I came across this show on BBC Radio 1 that did a good job describing the city and the party scene. Listen to it.

What is the 'business language' in Berlin? is it english? if so I would definitely consider working there for a while

After visiting Berlin for 10 days, I didn't want to leave. I wanted to stay there indefinitely. Within the next 5 years, I'd like to live there for at least a month. Although it may not be the same place it is right now when I finally get the chance, I'd still like to make it happen.

If I like it enough, I may just stay there. Thank you EU citizenship.

Been there many a time. A fantastic city. I can't wait to be back this upcomming summer.

I loved Berlin too. The nightlife was impressive, but not as much as the history and the architecture that personifies the entire city.

I was born about 2 hours away from Berlin so when I go back to visit family it's always the first stop. I looove Berlin.

i have been obsessed with berlin for probably 20 years of my life, but i've still not been boo hoo. from everything i've seen, read and heard it seems like my kinda place especially for the art and design scene.

if you don't have EU citizenship, you could always get a one year working holiday visa until the age of 35. could be an option.

i always have it in the back of my mind to go for a year, but i've lost most of my german language skills through lack of practise. and last i heard, the unemployment rate in germany is quite high.

I have to get on that. I have German citizenship rights thanks to my father and have to harass him for the necessary documents so I can get my passport!
