Berlin was great!

The day before yesterday at nine o´clock in the morning we arrived to Berlin and started exploring the city. It rained almost all day but we didn´t mind. We found some beautiful stores and ate a delicious seafood dinner. Rest of the afternoon, with sister we wandered around the city looking for a shopping center that didn´t even exist. We walked a lot and went through many shops and in the end, after the hard shopping, we bought cappuccinos from STARBUCKS (which I lovelovelove because we don´t have it in Finland (yet..)). 

In the evening we went to the Guggenheim museum, which was nice. I was a bit disappointed that the museum was so small: just one room. And it wasn´t even a big one. I thought that because it´s Guggenheim it´s going to be something big and amazing... The installation that they have there is great, though: room full of different kind of white "statues" made by Pawel Althamer. (read more) From the museum´s store I bought something really exciting and I don´t know why: a glass head. It´s  damn beautiful. I adore it and I have no idea where I´m going to put it. It´s made of recycled glass and designed by a Polish designer. 

Yesterday we did some more shopping and eating and late in the evening we arrived in Finland. Home sweet home, but I would´ve loved staying there. Berlin, I´m coming back!

With sister we bought these funny necklaces that represent our relationship: we are being mentally chained to each other. Want it or not. It´s just that we understand each other like no one else does and it kind of ties us together. Get it...?
