The nice people of Rotary know how to show their American guests a good time. We've been wined and dined like royalty and getting VIP treatment wherever we go. It's been a pretty sweet first trip to Eurpoe. Although we are in exchange to the Rotary district in the state of Hessen, they thought a trip to Berlin (which is outside their district) was a must-see for all visitors to German and we agreed.
But unfortunately, the trip was a whirlwind and we did not have enough time to see what we wanted to see and enjoy all the things we saw. However, there are a few things that I came away with from this short trip to this incredible city.
1) I have never been more emotionally charged by a city in my life.
2) Smoking seems to be more popular that Starbucks.
3) I am oddly intrigued by the currywurst, but have yet to try one.
Luckily for me, I will have another opportunity to enjoy more of what Berlin has to offer when Sean joins me in just 20 days (yes, I am counting the days till his arrival) when we will get to leisurely stroll the streets, stopping for many Berliner beers and currywurst along our way.
