Cerro San Cristobal is one of the most famous tourist spots in Santiago, Chile. When my mother decided to visit me during my days in Chile, this was the first place I thought about bringing her. I knew she would enjoy the amazing view overlooking Santiago, the Andes Mountains and the Cordillera de la Costa.

If you are looking to travel back in time to Prenzlauer Berg in 1993, this short movie from Hannes Stöhr might be one of the best ways to go there. A short trip back into a neighborhood that was still, somewhat, divided between East and West Berlin.

Most people don’t know but there is a piece of Africa in Berlin and you can find it in Wedding, a district north of Berlin. There you are going to see the African Quarter of Berlin and we only manage to discover that because we were invited by With Locals to try one of their tours. Once we took a look at what was available, we knew we had to explore Wedding with Henning, our connection with the African Roots of Berlin.

The Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood in St. Petersburg is a church of many names. Some call it Church of Our Savior on Blood, Church on the Blood, Temple of the Savior on Spilled Blood and the Church of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Either way, this is a special church since it was built where Tzar Alexander II was fatally wounded in March 1881.

The first thing we did when we got to Saint Petersburg with the guys from Timetravels was the visit to the Sphinx of Saint Petersburg. Such an unexpected sight to have in Russia. It is even more weird when you look across the river into all the neo-classical palaces and building overlooking the waters. Somehow it felt like a weird trip back in time.
