Revisiting Berlin: 2007

I'm trying to have all of my travel photos and adventures congregated in one place.
Obviously I have them all from the last year in Germany, but I want to share my first trip to Europe too.
The trip that really inspired my love of travel.

I love Berlin, that is a well known fact.
in June 2007, the love affair began. 
The above are some of my favorite photos from the trip.

a weekend in berlin.

last weekend, the whole family drove east to berlin for the cousins holy communion.
we stayed in a hotel in the same building as the fam's flat, and enjoyed walking around all day saturday.
we explored the "neues museum", or "new museum" which housed the current egyptian exhibit.
we also wandered around the nice shopping areas and artsy bits of town...the best parts, duh.


all of the photos were taken on my iphone since my beloved canon point and shoot broke.
yes, it is dreadfully tragic.
i loved that camera.
but, the best mom in the whole entire world freaking bought me a new one and is sending it my way!
yes, yes, you can be jealous she isn't your mom. 
and no, i'm not spoiled. i'll be dishing out a lot of moolah for my dream DSLR the second i get back stateside.
my mom just rocks, that's all.





i love berlin.
really, really love it there. when i was there on the grad trip almost four years ago, i adored it.
it is full of culture, full of history (of course, c'mon now), full of art, and full of things to do.
it's a huge city, but one worth visiting for sure.
if you haven't already.

  that's my dream vintage vespa...drool.
