Hate 6. Refugees
I agree on the likes, but how could you leave out Mauer Park on a Sunday??? I have no dislikes. Oh wait. Some times the U-Bahn is warmish.
Haven’t been yet much one awesome thing about Berlin… Katarina Witt!
Why not mention that almost everything is closed in Sundays?
Aggressive Rastafarians with dogs…..wouldn’t have happened in the old days……Deutschland has let its standards slip 🙁
So?? BERLINERS have nose in the air attitude, must have forgot the score. LONDON 2 BERLIN 0
Thanks for the video. It helped me decide to study abroad in Berlin rather than Salzburg. Only downside is I would like to improve my German more while I’m there, but it sounds like I’ll be hearing a lot of English 😀
What school did you go to?
I was only interested about the hates as I live here in Berlin my whole life and it starts being very annoying. #1 and #4 was very correct but don’t forget how fucking dirty the city is. Go ahead and find infrastructure without graffiti on it (there are literally none). Also the weather is horrific!
hi mark what is the best pass to buy for Berlin? for museums and transportation?
I found that Alexanderplatz was really tacky and not as nice as bikini Berlin or the area around potsdammerplatz
Hey, I’m Steven and I’m 17 years old. This summer I will be going to Berlin for a month, for a language and culture programs. I was wondering if you could tell me some of your best-hidden gems in Berlin or places people don’t really think to visit. Thank you!
So I lived in Germany for half a year (Northwest), so whenever I visited Berlin I found that Berliners are the friendliest and most open-minded people in Germany. I love the city, not because of its appereance since it’s not that special compared to other German cities, but the culture there is so inspiring since the place is filled with art and creativity, also, you really get that feeling that you are like at home since its very international, and, believe me, feeling included as an Ausländer in Germany is a big deal, specially since Germans, polite and nice as they are, are very hermetical people so it’s pretty difficult to enter their society even when you speak German decently. However, in Berlin, that’s super different, Berlin is all about peace and acceptance and freedom. So, give Berlin a shot, sure, there’s a lot of drugs, beggars and pollution and some parts in Berlin are genuinely ugly, but you won’t regret your visit.
I was in Berlin this summer and loved it. Lots of different vibes in the different parts of the city. I thought the people had a pretty relaxed attitude about life in general. I’m definitely going back.
I can to relate to the “Berliner Schnauze”, as the rest of Canada seems to feel the same about Toronto, even though Toronto is very friendly and most Canadians have never been here.
I am excited to try the many vegan restaurants in Berlin and shop at the first vegan supermarket! Berlin is a very progressive city, and the vegan lifestyle of many of the cities citizen’s is one of the aspects of conscious lifestyles better for one’s health, kinder to animals and much better for the environment to be vegan. And very delicious.
I enjoy you “loan and hate” videos. What you say about Berlin is very true and I felt it was a great city to visit.
Hate #6 It can be very dirty. Lots of litter and cigarette butts on the streets in many areas.
I was surprised about that.
London is squeaky clean compared to Berlin, but Germany supposedly is a wealthier country than the UK?… Guess their money doesn’t go enough into keeping streets clean.
How’s rent level there?
how is the concentration/labor camps a horrible history for the Germans ? whilst Americans kept Japanese in camps too ? huh ?
This is wonderful to hear!
I do not like anything about Berlin
You should mention that everything you talk about, is about the inner Berlin, if you visit Mariendorf or Rudow, you can also see many old houses and there are also no starbucks and no beggars
Alright then, Berlin is not my city!
One day. Here I come
I saw, literally, a hundred people lined up at a side walk kebab shop two weeks ago.
Berlin is an ugly city. So much evil buried deep in their roots.
I just love Berlin.. Been here 2yrs now , left Switzerland..Nothing is place like Berlin!!!!
Berlin didn’t sell it’s soul to capitalism. It was always a poor city and then people like you came by and just bought up the fucking city and kicked out the real Berliners
very accurate observations. I visited in 2004, and one thing I noticed was that people weren’t as nice as in Western Germany. must be hangovers from the communist era..
This video has got me so inspired and pumped. I wan’t to live in Berlin ! Great content as usual Wolter !
went to berlin last year , absolutely loved it, very beautiful and I’d definitely live there
The things he said he hated are things you wouldn’t like in any big city in the world.
Berlin isn’t even a top twenty place to visit in Germany.
One man’s hate can be another man’s love…And vice versa.
Do they have Taco Bell’s in Berlin?
Most important, I think, is that Berlin is a green capital, point four on +Wolters list. Hans Rosenthal (A.H.R.D.) PS: You can get from pure concrete to pure nature within less than 5 minits, just by using Berlin’s public transportation intelligence.
Hey Mark, I’m a food server in California and I just wanted to let you know that they took away the auto gratuity on parties of 8 or more at most corporate restaurants. Not sure about mom and pop places, fine dining or outside California. Not sure if someone brought this up in the comments down below, just wanted to share.
Berlin should learn from Asians how to build an airport and not trying to tell other countries and people how to rule their countries.
But a nice city with a lot of culture, as it should be for the capital of (one of) the countries in Europe with the highest heritage in arts, music, architecture and literature.
Would love to go to Berlin. Looks such a such an historical city.
Great! Thanks! I got a job there. This will help me.
130 echte Berliner. man should your fucking mouth talking about cities you don’t know
Your travels are so inspiring! :)))
I am going in june from the US and am planning on getting the German rail pass to travel tow a couple other cities. does the rail pass include trains within the city say from east berlin Center to West or the airport to charlottenburg palace?
