احلى من برلين

I always thought I was neutral to Berlin. That I could easily be happier elsewhere. Now I’m realizing what I actually love about it.

The chaos in the U-Bahn, especially U8. The districts like Kreuzberg and Neukölln.

You get to meet people at varying distances—from brief encounters to familiar faces to actual friends. Indie (or whatever better word exists) movies at Yorck. I love Yorck, by the way, as it reminds me of Zawya in Cairo.

Saw concerts of some of my favorite artists: Godspeed You! Black Emperor, London Grammar, Anouar Brahem.
