About me
About me
Hi! I’m Josephine, a Berlin local since 2008. I grew up in Munich, in the south of Germany, and moved here as a teen. This means I had to learn all my local knowledge from scratch and be it on foot or by bike, to this day I have never lost the drive to explore Berlin!
A foodie through and through, finding and testing new, engaging places that serve or produce good food is what I enjoy most. Since I work in Tech, you can bet I have some sort of kanban board to keep track of my discoveries.
Why Berlin?
I love Berlin because every single district, or even smaller neighborhoods, has its own unique, special character. Appearance and architecture, but also the types of people, shops, cafés, restaurants, and bars play a role here. The variety is staggering and the sheer size of Berlin guarantees you never truly finish exploring this city!
Where else can you find me online?
My spots (20)
Sardinen Bar
Very special canned fish
"Sardinen Bar" in Berlin is a gourmet bistro all about (premium hand-picked) canned fish. I recommend ordering 1-2 cans per person and taking it from there

Du Bonheur
A real patisserie
"Du Bonheur" close to the Berlin Wall Memorial is one of the best patisseries and cafes. Whatever you choose here, I assure you the calories are worth it.

Galander Bar
Opulent, dignified and cozy
"Galander Bar" is one of those hidden gems of ex-West Berlin. A long time ago, it was known as Mon Cheri, a brothel well known for its raucous parties...

The Catch
Contemporary Japanese
Sometimes I just have a craving for sushi, and most people agree that "The Catch" is one of the best places in Berlin to indulge in fresh fish...

Tree Stumps with Faces
Green street art
Steglitz-Zehlendorf in Berlin is full with "Tree Stumps with Faces"! It's a great specimen of street art, and there are more than 500 in the neighborhood!

Mosaic Seats
Rest your feet in style
The decorated "Mosaic Seats" in Berlin's Neukölln are located in a beautiful residential area. I like coming to rest my feet here if I'm in the area...
