what to do in Berlin

We passed by bike a few times on our way to Adlershof, and we always wondered what it would look like from inside the fences. We knew about the abandoned Flugplatz Johannisthal for years, and we even tried to find our way a few years ago. Still, we only made it in early January 2021.

In 2023, I got my hands on the Lomography LC-A+, a super cool analog camera. It's my first camera with control over exposure and ISO, so I knew I had to get out and use it! To kick things off, I loaded it with a Fuji Superia X-TRA 400 roll. This film is amazing for all situations because it's sharp, has super fine grain (meaning it looks smooth, not grainy), and can handle different lighting conditions.

Schöneberg has a story to tell. It dates back to 1264, a tiny village that rose from the ashes after a devastating fire in the 1700s. Industry boomed, grand mansions appeared, and the neighborhood became vital to the city after becoming part of Greater Berlin.

Many cities claim fame for their art scenes, but only a few come with their killer soundtrack, right? Berlin has its own rhythm, from Lou Reed to Iggy Pop, Atari Teenage Riot to Depeche Mode. And for those lucky ones who lived here in the late ’70s, the spirit of David Bowie still hangs in the Berlin air like glitter in a rockstar’s hair.
