Honestly, my place feels like a little slice of Berlin — right in Kreuzberg, near Oberbaumbrücke and Schlesisches Tor. It’s that mix of calm and chaos that makes the city special. In the morning, you hear the city waking up, smell coffee from the cafés downstairs, and by evening, you can walk by the river or grab a drink at a local bar — everything’s within a few minutes.
The apartment itself is small but full of character. It’s cozy, filled with light, and has everything you need to feel at home — I usually start my day with coffee by the window and end it watching the city lights outside.
It’s the kind of place that makes you feel part of Berlin, not just visiting. You get the creative energy of Kreuzberg, the view of the Spree nearby, and the freedom to just step outside and find something new every day.
