Today was yet another fun day in Berlin. My son and I spent the morning shopping in the Charlottenburg area and the afternoon walking through different neighborhoods in the city, including:
Here are a few pictures from the RAW Berlin area.
Our first afternoon in Berlin started with a ‘Warm Welcome.’ Apparently, public transport works a little differently here than in the Netherlands. As we forgot to stamp our train tickets, my son and I were fined 60 euros each. There is no exemption; “Rules are rules,” they said.
Anyhow, we took our loss and moved on. We had a great first afternoon in the city; we visited some prominent landmarks and drank along the river.
The previous week has been fun and exhausting. Enjoy reading my thingsThisWeek below.

I’ve updated my /follow page with the latest information on where to find (and follow) me on the internet.
I’m going on a city trip to Berlin tomorrow with my 17-year-old son. It will be our first visit to Berlin, and we look forward to it. I’ll use this Berlin tag to capture our city adventures during the next 2,5 days.
I have saved my research of possible things to do in Berlin on this bookmark list. I’m open to tips from those who have been to Berlin before, so do let me know if you have any.
This Kingsday run is the first and only run I can complete this week. I’ve been traveling Europe since last Monday evening, and I’m only home today as I will be going to Berlin tomorrow with my son for a father-son trip.
I’m collecting 52 songs in 52 weeks. Every Friday afternoon, I will add a song to my playlist. The aim is to capture my energy and feelings for that particular Friday with the chosen song.
Week 31/52: Mick Jagger – Strange Game
After 52 weeks, I will have recorded all the seasons, holidays, and high and low weeks of the year (from October 2024 to September 2025) in one self-curated playlist on Apple Music. Don’t use Apple Music? Subscribe to weekly updates via RSS.
After a little over 36-hours in Milan I’m already on my way to Germany this morning. I had a great day with our team in Italy yesterday and enjoyed our visit to the ‘Last Supper’ and the Duomo last night.
I’m flying out to Milan this Monday evening for four days of European travel with my team from the US, who came over this week. I will be in our Milan office on Tuesday, in our German office on Wednesday, and on Thursday, in our UK office.
It’s going to be a busy and fun week, again.
