The Berlin/Prague Diaries - DAY 1 - 31/12/24 - A Bumpy Start!

 After a bit of a misunderstanding, wrongly thinking that my flight might be cancelled, I say goodbye to my flatmate and I am off!


On this trip I am flying with the dreaded Ryanair to Berlin as I am not currently financially stable. I will not arrive til nearly 9PM. Just in time to celebrate New Year's eve in Berlin! I have my SanDisk mp3 player with me to listen to on the flight as I try to switch off from technology when I travel. I hate having to be glued to my phone!


The flight is quite bumpy but the city is beautiful at night.





For this trip I am staying at the Generator at Berlin Mitte, I have a bed in an 8 dormitory room, w/shared bathroom for two nights. 




I would stay here again as I do feel safe here. I have some plans to meet some people downtown. I get changed.



Unfortunately due to the holdups I am late meeting them and spend midnight alone watching the fireworks from the station.




I do not speak German fluently but I have been travelling since I was young so I can get my way around quickly. Berlin is beautiful at night. 


I meet some people at a bar in Berlin and we celebrate the night by having a few drinks in a Berlin bar. All in all a great start to the year!



Please see my Youtube channel for videos of my trip and to follow my career.
