Hallo zusammen!
It’s your friendly neighborhood DeutschAkadamie classmate. Meine name ist Milan (yes, exactly like the city in Italy) . As of about two weeks ago, I just moved here from the USA- so I can escape from the new President. (Kidding… sort of.)  California to be exact, „Surfs up, dude!“

So now, like all of you, „Ich bin ein Berliner!“, and not the jelly-filled Krapfen kind. It is also my first time attending DeutschAkademie. Now, it’s quite possible that some of you reading this have recently moved to Berlin as well, so der Ampelmann und die Biere sagen ‚Herzlich Wilkommen‘. And maybe, through this Blog, we can get through the transition together!  Anyways, I’m incredibly glad to be here in Berlin, and I love everything about it. From the food (oooh! that Currywurst), to the sights (das Brandenburger Tor ist sehr toll!), all the way to the city’s history and language!

Speaking of language, with each day of DeutschAkademie Deutsch class, I will be writing a little bit about the Akademie, the city of Berlin, and all that they have to offer. Now, since my Deutsch isn’t quite that great yet, I’ll be writing in what I like to call Denglisch, a mixture of Deutsch and English, and you will have to bare with me as this Blog continues. Well, that’s it for now! Try to stay warm in this very chilly weather and hopefully you tune in next Blog! Bis bald!
