Living in Berlin

Montag.

Today I feel very exhausted after an extremely busy weekend with my friends! Amy left on Sunday and Serena left early this morning. I was so tired that I considered not going to class, but then I remembered that if you miss a lesson it can be very hard to find your place again, so I made up my mind to go!

We are doing something called pronominaladjektives, which I find very difficult. The lessons are quite varied, sometimes I find that after a bit of effort I have a fairly good idea of what is going on, other times it is super hard and I feel like I’m just taking guesses! This was one of those times, though I think it would’ve been easier if I knew all of the prepositions by heart. I can see that this is something I will need to revise!

Life in Berlin is a lot of fun, I’ve said that before but since I’m supposed to write about my Berlin leisure activities I thought I would begin with this fact! My favourite leisure activities are meeting with friends, walking with Lukas and going for fruestuck/kaffee in a cafe and just soaking up the atmosphere. I have been here for almost 7 months and I often still feel excited just walking down the street as it is such a beautiful city!

My favourite places to walk with Lukas are along the kanal near my apartment and in Hasenheide park, especially in the Hundt park! Lukas is very shy in the hundt park, he mostly stays by me. I think maybe the other dogs are speaking German? Either way, he seems a bit confused by them and doesnt play much. Maybe dogs do speak in other languages too!
