Frau K, the frail, elderly neighbour I sometimes go shopping for, left me a new list today. She recently told me she’d been vaccinated and I had to look twice at the top item which I thought said “6 x bier”, and that she was going to get hammered to celebrate! (It’s “Eier”) 😂

One of the greatest things about living in Berlin is that there is history baked into every corner. We're currently allowed to get outside for walks in nature and meet with one other household - what better place to do that than Schönholzer Heide?

[Our Passports @ourpussports]

A 1942 very rare late issued double J stamped German passport for a young Jewish woman. By late 1941 Jews were forbidden from leaving German territory and also the time when an additional J was applied to the covers of passports, approved by Himmler July 7th that year.

Schöneberg’s Pallasseum housing block, which was built in the 70s and straddles a large WW2 bunker (out of shot) and is home to around 2000 residents. Quite a few of the satellite dishes have been customised with artworks and even family photos. #berlin #walkingberlin
