The Difference between Berlin & the Rest of Germany
Ойын-сауық
Berlin life is very different from the rest of Germany. The lifestyle, the people, their mindsets and their values are a long way away from each other. See the difference in culture, dressing up, nightlife and general behavior.
From all German cities, Berlin is by far the most exciting one.

For all people who are complaining about the bike part: you need a Kiezgurke. get some old bike, paint it in the most horrible way using standard wall paint, attach some "mildly useful " stuff like a beer bottle holder made from an old coke bottle and zip ties and voilà now you can leave your vehicle even on the Karl-Marx-Str without a lock :)
@mynamejeff3545
Жыл бұрын
Yeah, you just need to make sure it doesn't look new or valuable. Paint it over in some horrible color, swap out or dirty up shiny new parts (bell, lamps, even wheels) and don't wash/wax it. Double points for the personalizations you mentioned, faded plastic flowers or stickers also seem to do the trick. Of course this won't always save you but expensive things tend to get stolen faster, so making your good, expensive bike look like a piece of junk is a legitimate strategy.

The thing about Berlin is that you can have all this, but you don't have to. It doesn't have the typical concentrical structure of a city center that's surrounded by progressively less "city-like" parts of the city. Neighbourhood-culture is very strong in Berlin and if you live in a more quiet part you won't really see these things. I'm from a medium sized city and moved to Berlin for uni and I've found it extremely freeing because I could wear and do whatever I wanted without ever getting stared at so I think if you're young it's a great place to discover yourself. But I also think that when I have a family I'll want to live a bit outside the city again, mainly because rent is extremely high and it takes ages to get anywhere because the city is so spread out.

@@snowwhite4133 You will have to be extremely "lucky" to even meet a Berliner in Berlin, so how you're treated is going to be entirely different from one person to the next. That said, the original culture is to impolite, frank, "herzig" (extremely friendly and caring in the most impolite way possible - "Schnauze mit Herz" is the original term), talkative and laissez-faire (you could run around naked with pink hair and no-one would even bat an eye - however, go around and tell people what to do and you'll be met with ... scorn ... let's call a spade a spade: verbal, or just outright, violence).

The bike thing is true of Manchester as well, funnily enough. I found it hilarious when I moved here how often you'd just see the bike frame chained up to a bike post and all of the other parts had been removed. No idea why someone would want all the parts of the bike but not the bike itself, but I wish I could see the person's face when they come to collect their bike and it's just a frame
