From döner kebabs to techno beats—hallo from Berlin! In September, I embarked on an exciting journey to Berlin for my exchange studies. I started with a two-week German course, which was a great way to get familiar with the language and meet new people. I had always wanted to experience life in a big city, and Berlin seemed like the perfect place. The city was full of energy, diversity, and creativity, and I quickly realized that this would be a life-changing experience.
