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.

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. :D |

| 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! |
