Is Berlin German and my confusion by matcrazy1
Berlin is a multicultural city not as much German as I thought before my visit. I found quite many Asian and Turkish people there. They added a lot of new colors to Berlin's life. From my, visitor point of view, I could find many ethnic restaurants and some stores esp. Turkish and Asian.There were quite many people from all over Europe living and working in Berlin as well, among them Poles. I had one college friend living in Berlin but we didn't meet yet.
I was very confused and a little ashamed looking at the freshly painted wall at... the restroom of Jukebox Diner restaurant. Hmm... someone wrote there "Gdynia" which is a name of city in Poland. Behave my friends, please!
From my friend Ingo (german_eagle) from Dresden, Germany:
I also had the impression that Berlin is not a typical German city anymore - it tends to become a sort of cosmopolitan "international" city. Certainly with local flair, but not for a short-time visitor I think.
