0s | Welcome to Berlin! |
1s | The city of everyone. |
3s | So I have been here now for three weeks |
6s | and I absolutely adore the place |
8s | Right now, what we are going to do |
10s | is we are going to find out what other people in Berlin |
12s | think about the city where they are living |
20s | Where are you from yourself? |
22s | I'm from Germany, from Bremen |
24s | From the Netherlands |
25s | Ahhh, very nice |
27s | I'm from Basel, from Switzerland |
29s | I'm from Hanover, Germany, so like 2 hours from here |
32s | From New York. New York! |
33s | Do you have to be an English native |
35s | No, you can be from anywhere you want |
37s | No, no, we're looking for a German just like you |
40s | Okay |
41s | So what do you like about Berlin? |
44s | I like my son and his girlfriend |
47s | I know absolutely nothing about Germany or Berlin |
49s | The people are very open |
52s | Uuum Berlin has very different people, and yeah |
60s | And there's more hipsters like you |
62s | I won't call it hipster, but yeah maybe |
66s | What I like about the city is that you get to be yourself |
68s | and you get to meet a bunch of new, international people |
72s | since this is such an international city |
75s | You get to drink on the street |
77s | Exactly, you get to drink on the street |
79s | In the US exactly... yes |
80s | And, it's cheap, Berlin is cheap |
87s | And how do you like Berlin? |
90s | So far it has been really, really awesome |
92s | It has a lot of history and a lot of architecture |
95s | There's a lot to do |
97s | And there's also beer! |
99s | It's going to sound very cheesy |
100s | but it is easier to enjoy life here, I believe |
103s | Is that because the alcohol is cheap? |
106s | So judge a city by its beer |
108s | And do you feel part of Berlin right now? |
110s | Or do you feel like you're a foreigner |
112s | No, I don't really feel.. |
113s | I feel like I'm a foreigner |
115s | I feel like everyone can spot the English, the British |
118s | From like miles away |
120s | What do you have British about you? |
123s | English! |
124s | Yeah ok, we want an English person |
126s | And how do you find the people? |
128s | Do you think the Berliners are nice? |
130s | Do you think they are civilized people? |
131s | Do you think they are friendly? |
132s | Do you think they're angry, you know, impolite? |
135s | What do you think? |
136s | Well, so far they've been more than polite |
139s | I can only speak for my experience here |
142s | and it's been a really good experience |
145s | I've had really good conversations with Berliners |
149s | I've actually met people |
150s | You're lucky, because there's not many |
153s | And Stefi, you told me you're from Berlin, an original |
157s | Yes I'm an original, I'm born in Berlin |
160s | I was born in Berlin |
161s | What do you find different in Berlin now to before? |
165s | Oh, it's much more lively, it's much more fun |
168s | and well, more traffic and more of everything |
172s | Ok, so would you say Bremen over Berlin? |
175s | Which gets the brownie points? |
177s | Which do you prefer? |
179s | Oh, I prefer Bremen because it's my hometown |
183s | So you have to say that because you live there |
185s | I mean Bath and Berlin are massively different. |
188s | Yeah I know |
189s | What do you prefer? Bath or Berlin? |
191s | Berlin, yeah it's definitely one of my favorite cities |
194s | Do you think you'll want to come back to Berlin afterwards? |
196s | Yeah, definitely, hopefully in the near future |
200s | So it's fantastic to hear what everybody had to say about Berlin |
205s | All these different people from different places doing different things |
208s | And it's a wonderful city |
210s | and I think that's what makes Berlin |
211s | an amazing, buzzing, interesting, diverse city |
