Livraison

Aujourd'hui je dois livrer un bouquet de fleurs chez Heimat Berlin, une super boutique de chapeaux sur Kastanienallee. J'ai également mis quelque unes de ces fleurs sur Dawanda plus pratique lorsque l'on n'habite pas Berlin !

Anywhere you go...

Anywhere you go in Berlin there's always something to see and nice moments to spend.
That was an ordinary, mild and lovely sunday.

Today is a great day (suite)

Well it was raining cats and dogs, but it was great to be there to see all those dominos falling down. All of them were painted by people from everywhere in the world ; they symbolized the former wall and how it's fall had chain consequences on European history. Mikhail Gorbatchev was here and Lech Walesa made the first domino fall.

Today is a great day

I feel VERY emotional today because we're celebrating the fall of the Berlin wall.
It's amazing for me to be here in Berlin and to feel like i'm "from Berlin", twenty years after this D-day.
I'll come back later with my own pictures of the celebrations that are taking place today.

SNOW !!!

Today is officially the first day snowing in Berlin ! Oh la la... it's only the very beginning !

Brief fall

First time in a long while that we had time to enjoy Berlin on a Sunday. We walked in the park, had a nap and took spring rolls to go.
Wow it’s fall already and as usual here, it won't last very long..

Tag der deutschen Einheit

Today the 20th anniversary of the two former East & West Germany reunion is celebrated.

For the occasion two Royal de Luxe Giants (a french company) were invited and symbolise this reunion.

It is magic to see them walking and to see the sparkling eyes and cameras of kids and grown ups in the audience.

Have a look on the Arte reportage

Prenzlauer Berg, Kingdom of Children

I was interviewed by journalists of "Le Petit Journal des Français à l'étranger" (Online chronicles about French people abroad - in French).

This video is about Prenzlauer Berg (the part of Berlin where the Excuse my French shop is) and tries to figure out how come this district has sooo many children. It's a very lovely video, and i'm proud to be at the end of it. I don't have much to say about kids cos i don't have any yet, but you can see me working in the shop :)

Discover Berlin... again & again

When friends & family come to visit us in Berlin it's always a good opportunity to discover Berlin again. We tend to take them to the same places, to show them all the stategic things of the city : usually we bike, because we have developped a very effective route ; and with the sporty type ones we tend to extend the journey and discover new places.
It's never boring because Berlin is in perpetual change ; by the way did you see what they did to our Wall ???

No more Palast der Republik but a huge lawn instead
