The typical Berlin winter is biting cold and grey. In combination with the hardness of the city and the angry natives, it feels like a hostile area. Why it's worth experiencing it? Because that's the way this city is.

One of my favorite magazine stores in Berlin – a wide range of temporary magazines and books and the smell of printed pages. Located in the center of Berlin, it's a must go for all print lovers.

Tuesday's lunch hour tip is the amazing Berlin Philarmonic. A short-duration concert (around an hour) happens every Tuesday at 13h, for free. People make the Philarmonie's foyer full, sitting on the stairs, on the ground and everywhere around. Little advice: bring with you a little cushion for more comfort and try to arrive early to find the good spots.

Beautiful atellier-stores around weserstrasse, this is from a very nice girl that make "sculpure hats" as she said. Excellent record store across the street also.

Chalet is one of many clubs in Berlin. It's a very interesting option if you want to know what Berlins night can be. Music is great and environment too. It 's a decadent building in the inside with curious corners...
