I’ve already said a few words about how great this city is for bikers, but I have to repeat myself today.. Since I got a great bike here in a second-hand bike shop, I’ve been riding it every day, not only to the Academy and back, but before and after as well, just exploring the city, taking pictures and so on. Even with my girlfriend, if we can, we ride the bike everywhere.
It’s not hard to get used to the feeling that the car drivers respect you, they treat you on the roads as one of them, so unlike biking in Budapest, you don’t have to be afraid of death every time you try to turn left..
And, I have to mention that you don’t even have to go on the same way with them – there’s an incredible amount of bikeways all around in Berlin, with their own traffic signs and lamps!

However, it’s not the only possibility of doing sports here. We’ve already been to a great swimming pool last week, which is open till 22.00 and after 8 p.m. you can go in for 2,50 Euros, which is really cheap. My girlfriend tried Yoga, which is also very famous here, and I’m sure there are lots of other options – we still have to find them!

See you tomorrow!
