My *reading* knowledge is pretty good, I only have problems buying a U-Bahn ticket... I'm reluctant to sign up to Die Zeit in order to read it all, though.<br /><br />I must say Berlin is a curious mix of the half-built, the luxurious, and the downright run-down.

What spoils the fun for me a bit is that the conditions in my hometown are similar.<br /><br />Best, ThomasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
