Now I am in fact back in Berlin for good for the next two weeks. The first weekend I spent in France and the second in Praha oder Prague. They were both sort of the same sort of deal in a sence. Amazing food, beautiful historic cities, and terrible people who try to rip you off at any turn. Don't get me wrong, Paris was amazing and the FRENCH are very nice people, the scam artists that have moved into the city are trash. Berlin has no tourist really, well not like Prague and Paris. The people here are honest. I feel like this is the place for me, but who knows what I`d say after a winter here. It has been so crazy hot, Berlin? Who knows. This city seems to be one in constant motion, it´s hard to contemplate the change that has gone on here in just my life time. I never really knew what happened with the wall really, I feel a lot more knowledgable now. One painful thing about europe is it is such a place for lovers. No one hides their affections and I am like wahhh all alone. What can you do I guess right? Berlin is cheap though, so that has definitally been good. I´m having a lot of fun with my program compadres and some ramdom Germans trying to teach us the language. Everyone loves americans in Berlin. They will give you free drinks simply for being american. Even though drinking beer here is significantly less exspensive than buying a good no gas bottle of water. Silly germans and their mineral wasser. appearently there is tons of nudity here that I have just not noticed? I feel like life is so easy, but that could just be because I am finally not working. I would never go back to Prague again. I like that no one here ever assumes that I´m an american, because before I came here everyone told me that americans stick out in such a crazy way. People have asked me for directions in german, started talking to me assuming I was french in Prague. I don´t feel like a leper.
