This week is great: It started, of course, Monday – I was one of but a few people at the office – and public transport was, essentially, empty. I couldn’t have imagined a better day of work – I actually got work done and had an enjoyable lunch with one of my colleagues. Since Tuesday […] Lots of languages. No English.
The Eisbären won the German ice hockey championship! Sweet!
The Lives of the Others
Haupstrassefest in Schöneberg.
