I’ve been out for lunch with Crissi, a friend i have met while living in hamburg (can’t remember how we met, if it was because of my blog…). She was kind enough to welcome me for some days in her flat in berlin’s prinzlauerberg (i think this is the young and hip plateau of berlin) while i visited the city.
Funny how things evolve. 2 years later, Berlin is still going bankrupt, the chancellor Schroeder might be replaced by Frau Merkel – who is, she said, not that good but not that bad either.
We discussed about life in montreal and in berlin, about her considering moving over here. Made me miss germany and europe, again.
Hi M-C! Back in Berlin and missing Montreal, I guess that shows how these 2 cities both have ALOT going for them!! Good news about you planning to take german lessons again… I plan to take french lessons again here!! You never know what it might be good for, and I don’t want to lose this language! Jaaaaaaa, it would be pretty cool if you did your blog in 3 languages one day… By the way, to set it straight I said it would be neat to have a female chancellor, but not Frau Merkel and not from this political party! I still think they will win the next election here, because everyone is so fed up with the way the government is being led. Too bad there’s no better alternatives…
