“I believe we’re going to fly to Germany from Thailand”, announced our good friend Jarryd.
Our response?
“We’ll book our flight as well as satisfy you there”!
After wondering where we must choose 13 days between Malta as well as the Caribbean, we lastly have a plan of action.
We are Berlin bound!

Berlin is a destination that we’ve wished to travel to for lots of years. It’s really a location that we believed we would online as digital nomads one day. There’s so much going on in Berlin – it’s a city with an underground music / club scene; a location for the “hipsters” as well as art lovers; a foodie’s paradise; as well as of course, a top area for history as well as culture buffs.
With underground nightclubs (literally, they’re below ground), the graffiti-painted Berlin Wall, an island of museums, abandoned buildings as well as quirky neighbourhoods, we’re sure that booking our flight there will verify to be a great choice.

The city of Berlin itself has tons to offer us travellers, however there are many day trips that we’re thinking about as well. even though we only have 1 week in the city, we believe we’ll have time to head out of Berlin as well as check out a few of the surrounding areas.
In particular, we’re planning to rent a cars and truck to see the city of Leipzig, which is about 2 hours away as well as is understood for its culture, arts, music, as well as the second oldest coffee shop in Europe! As we are coffee lovers, we’re absolutely going to inspect that out.
Oh ya, we like coffee
We’re likewise believing about heading to Dresden, which is 2.5 hours away. This city utilized to be understood as the Florence of the Elbe because of its gorgeous collection of art as well as architecture. Sadly, much of the city was destroyed by WWII bombings, however obviously a great deal of restoration has been completed as well as the city has returned to its lovely self again.
We liked Florence, as well as I’m sure we’ll be surprised by Dresden.
If Dresden is anything like Florence, we’ll like it!
Finally, we’ve heard that Potsdam is a prominent trip from Berlin, as well as it’s only a 45 minute drive away. up until 1918, Potsdam was house to the Kaiser as well as Prussian Kings, which indicates that there are some charming palaces as well as formal gardens. But, I believe we’re a lot of looking ahead to inspecting out the Sanssouci Castle!

Renting a cars and truck is always a great deal of fun. Our recent road trips in Macedonia, Croatia as well as Albania were incredible, as it enabled us to get off the beaten path, as well as provided us flexibility to go where we wanted, when we wanted.
Driving in Germany will most likely seem like a piece of cake after the interesting road conditions we withstood while road-tripping around Albania. Although, understanding us, I’m sure that we’ll still handle to get lost!
Getting to Berat, Albania was difficult, however worth the crazy journey
Apart from checking out the special city of Berlin as well as surrounding areas, we’re a lot more than a bit ecstatic to satisfy up with our good friends ?
As full-time travellers, our friendships are rather fleeting. We satisfy people, we take pleasure in their business for a few days, weeks, or months, as well as then we state goodbye.
Saying goodbye to good friends is never easy…but it’s excellent to satisfy up again!
It can be tough to part methods with people that we’ve shared some excellent times with, however since we’ve satisfied people from all around the world, it’s truly interesting when we can message them as well as state “Hey, we’re pertaining to see you”!
In the situation of Berlin, that person is Henrik.
If you’ve been complying with our blogging journey considering that it very first began method back in 2012, you may keep in mind this ukulele-playing character. We satisfied Henrik during our month spent backpacking around Mozambique, as well as he truly enriched our travels there.
We’ve stayed in get in touch with with Henrik considering that we split ways as well as are truly looking ahead to satisfying up with him again, as well as it just so occurs that he just recently transferred to BErlin. Perfekt!

De människor vi tillfredsställer när de är på vägen (både regional och utländsk) påverkar verkligen våra erfarenheter. De kan associera till resan eftersom de hjälpte till att forma den – med skratt, tårar, utforskning och äventyr.
Vi har turen att ha vänner som vi kan säga “Hej, kom ihåg när vi …”?!
Hej Henrik … Kom ihåg när vi bröt ner mitt i ingenstans i Moçambique?!
Vi ser framåt för att påminna om vår tid i Moçambique med Henrik. Vi tillbringade nästan 3 veckor med honom såväl som några ganska otroliga äventyr – snorkling med valhajar, dykande dykning med knölvalar, hitchhiking från söder till norr, samt segling runt öde öar och camping på dem!
Exakt samma sak gäller för Jarryd och Alesha, det kommer att vara utmärkt att komma ikapp dem såväl som att chatta om att resa i Plovdiv, Bulgarien, de galna evenemangen i World Tourism Forum i Istanbul, liksom naturligtvis vår Delade yrken – resebloggning!
Vi hyr verkligen en lägenhet eller lägenhet med dessa två, och jag är säker på att vi kommer att få lika mycket som vissa schenanigans runt Berlin tillsammans.
Vi ser framåt för att tillfredsställa såväl Jarryd som Alesha!
Från söder till norr (rakt när kråkan flyger) den 27 maj säger vi adjö till den vackra ön Malta, vår lägenhet eller lägenhet samt våra goda vänner här.
Det har varit en extraordinär två månader, liksom vi hoppas att en persondag snart kommer att kunna återansluta med de goda vänner som vi fick här, samt tro tillbaka på våra roliga tider tillsammans: ”Hej, kom ihåg när vi…”?!
Bortsett från våra videor har vi inte publicerat mycket om Malta på bloggen, men det kommer snart. Vi kommer att producera grundliga guider, resa hur man, bilduppsatser såväl som resten, så håll dig uppdaterad. Den här bloggen kommer att vara full av information om att kolla in detta något europeiska land utanför banan.
Hej, kom ihåg när vi hade en BBQ i en grotta?!
Om du har någon typ av Berlin -idéer såväl som råd, vänligen visa oss! Ge oss dina finaste dagsresor, mycket älskade restauranger, måste-se och måste-dos!
