Streetlife – Experience and discover Berlin
“Berliners are unfriendly and reckless, rude and bossy, Berlin is repugnant, loud, dirty and gray, construction sites and clogged roads wherever you look – but I feel sorry for all people who can not live here!” Anneliese Bödecker
Get to know Berlin, its art, culture and people directly on the streets of Berlin and see what makes Berlin so special. In communicative situations, we move through the city and practice our German at the same time. On the street we discover Berlin’s alternative and creative side through graffiti and street performances or experience the intercultural and culinary side of Berlin in the Markthalle 9 in Berlin-Kreuzberg (excursions: visit of Markthalle 9 in Berlin-Kreuzberg, visit of the Urban Nation Museum For Contemporary Art et al).
