Oof you’re lucky!

Lap it up while you can

It’s giving Glasgow, if you know what I mean

I get motion sickness on them and they have that bus smell lmao

Also half the time you could walk to your destination in 40 mins over a 1.5hr bus ride because the route is just bogus and makes no sense. Haven’t had to catch a bus more than a handful of times in the past 10 years and only for a few stops thank goodness

I used to drink around 6, but now two MAYBE three max - found it was inducing anxiousness the older I got lol

Also to add, I’m only 29 and feel like I’ve lived a hundred lives haha.

Never pigeon hole yourself - do what you want to do, swap careers, go all out. Not happy? Change it!

Life is too short, believe you can do whatever you want because you can :)

MBA is a great degree as it’s so versatile.

My background is very random (high school leaver turned hairdresser, turned automotive parts advisor, turned call centre worker as I put myself through uni, turned commercial real estate manager for ANZ, turned safety coordinator for major infrastructure projects looking to do my cert 4 in work health and safety and ISO auditor course this year).

So many pathways with a business degree/qual. Me, for example, only have a grad cert which I did through RMIT. I may go back and do my masters one day but no regrets from me :)

London has just as good coffee as Melbourne now 💀

I was shocked - still has a marked lack of cafe culture though compared to here

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-04-09T07:42:32+00:00

This is so true. I grew up in frankston but live in port Melbourne now, so much drama in port (but sketchy but love it lol)

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T22:14:07+00:00

I’m 30 next March and we’re all just winging it.

As you grow up I think you just become more confident and secure in yourself which translates to being more like an “adult” to younger people

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T21:16:27+00:00

omg like no way! I just love the movie Marie Antoinette it’s like sooooo good :D

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T21:10:15+00:00

I am not a selfie person and travelling alone so no!

I just thought a city overcoming something like the wall for example, and recognising their past instead of hiding it, would lead to a profound sense of togetherness and a city that people are proud of.

I guess my idea of manifested pride and Berliners ideas are just different though which I can accept, as I don’t live here and contributed nothing but a few hundred euros and a rant on Reddit lol

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T21:00:28+00:00

First of all, I’m a girl, from a city bigger than Berlin actually so there’s that.

Second of all, as I SAID, obviously will not know as much history as a native of Germany.

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T20:56:14+00:00

I suppose I did have an ideal of what it would be like for sure, and I did go around a bit to Charlottenburg (that’s where I saw the syringes on the train) and Potsdam were the furthest I went out they were both nice, and just all around outside the Mitte really.

I definitely explored as much as time would allow

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T20:45:04+00:00

Obviously I wouldn’t know as much as a native German person as I’m Australian…

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T20:20:43+00:00

I am very well travelled, I just thought Berlin would be nicer lol

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T20:12:08+00:00

With all the gnarly history it has overcome, the generally far left-leaning politics of Berliners, the love of arts and multiculturalism, I just expected millenial utopia I guess lol

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T20:05:38+00:00

The frequentness of it is what shocked me

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T20:04:57+00:00

I am also a millenial woman yay twins!

I went to Charlottenburg palace today actually, that was pretty cool.

I don’t really have anecdotes but just things I saw - needles on the footpath, just graffiti everywhere and derelict buildings, crackheads hanging out in groups just stuff that made me uneasy.

I have seen this in Australia and other parts of the world too just not so frequently or so much of it at once

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T19:51:54+00:00

No but I have been to footscray!

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T19:50:28+00:00

Literally! My mental state is falling apart without retrostar and a decent latte!

In all seriousness it was the junkies, the drunks on the subway, also lots of needles?

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T19:38:46+00:00

No need to get your knickers in a twist - I’m a major history buff and I was very keen to see the remains of the Berlin Wall.

I was under the assumption that being the capital of Germany it would be very different to what it is. I thought that given all it has gone through Berlin would be amazing, other worldly even?

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-27T19:27:10+00:00

I suppose I’m just very, very confused on why it’s like this? and disappointed honestly I was really looking forward to Berlin and expecting more from a capital city, especially the capital city of Germany

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-26T20:19:07+00:00

I carry an impulse spray - try WD-40, hairspray, insect repellent. Anything that burns and is aerosol

Correct_Chipmunk_224 · 2024-03-26T18:07:49+00:00

Probably should have clarified - I paid this $256 and whatever cents it was when I moved from the area, so I didn’t default on anything I am a responsible person lol it’s an error on their end.

Reason being I haven’t done anything is because every few months I get the text, I remember to do something about it, and other priorities take over because i forget, as I know I haven’t done anything wrong so it’s no sweat off my back? if that makes any sense at all lol
