Random Scrap:

On Wednesday, I jumped onto the U2 Bahn and went to Kudam Strasse. I first came to Berlin with my parents, when I was six years old and the wall was still dividing the city into two. I still remember the graffiti on the wall and the bright colors and lights of West Berlin. These days, going back there is like pushing a reset button. Walking out of the U-Bahn station always takes me back to the feeling of excitement when I arrived there for the first time. These days, I can afford many of the things around, so I stopped by a department store and bought myself an eighty-euro sweater.

The days had been getting shorter and I could already feel a chill and a slight gloom of an autumn chill. I spent the rest of the afternoon walking around and taking some photos. I knew it was probably going to be a while before I came back there, so I somehow wanted to preserve the memory of those last days. When I got home later in the evening, I put a bottle of Riesling in a bag and took a U2 Tram to attend Miko’s house party.
