Berlin, August 6 – August 11 2013
Not knowing much about Germany aside from the fact that they are a leading manufacturer of cars, that most of the history people associate with the country revolve around the World Wars, and that my good friend Maurice loves David Hasselhoff, I was quite excited to open up my eyes a bit more to German history, the people and their culture. My first stop in Berlin showed me some not-so-pretty parts of ex-Communist East Berlin, their vibrant underground artistic scene and their love for all things pork.
