@Rachel: Glad you found this useful for your upcoming trip. Just be in touch if you have questions on anything. Berlin is a huge city — and so different from one side to the other — so it’s good to start with a few things and allow time to explore and get lost.

@Klaus: Berlin is certainly among the most affordable of Europe’s capitals and large cities. From our experience, it’s possible to experience multiple cities in one. That’s been one of our aims — to experience all the different feelings across all of Berlin’s neighborhoods — of each of our experiences and visits in Berlin.

Berlin is one of the most affordable European capitals. And you may discover two cities in one.

@Jeremy: There are some great German dishes that go perfect with a perfectly pulled beer. Perfect after a long hike.

@Brian: Thanks for sending this to your friend! The neighborhoods are one of the best things about Berlin – and you’re right, they can make or break a trip.

Hi Audrey! Great guide on an amazing city. My friend has been looking for one so I decided I’d send yours over to him. I really like the way you include the distinct neighborhoods in the writeup–something most guides overlook. They’re the cities within the city and can really make or break your trip if you don’t have the right expectations. Really great stuff.

Cheers

I always hear people say that German food is boring but I love it… highly underrated food in the Deutschland for sure!

@Jason: We just rode past Tempelhof (old airport) yesterday on our bikes. Such an incredible and huge building. We’ve never been inside, so it will be fun for you to see the inside for the trade show. And if you are an ex graffiti artist, you’ll have a great time here – everywhere you turn there is some piece of street art.

@Nicola: Yes, having a job sorted before moving here would definitely cut down on the stress. The Berlin couchsurfing community is quite close and strong, so you shouldn’t have a problem finding hosts for the first part of your stay. Sometimes Couchsurfers also post in the Berlin apartment forum when they have a room to rent – not as cheap as free, but usually reasonably priced if you don’t need your own flat. Good luck!
