Berlin on foot

The last few days I have spent exploring the city and the area immediately surrounding where I am staying in Moabit. I am so lucky to have the opportunity to stay with my friend here as it is such a central location with great transport links and surrounded by awesome food. On Friday I explored the area on foot and found that at the end of Turmstraße (the main street where I am staying) there is a nice park and cute little graveyard which all looked pretty covered in snow.

On Saturday my friend Christina had an essay to finish for uni so after she got us a beautiful breakfast of fresh bread rolls from one of the local bakeries I went exploring in Berlin to give her some peace and quiet to work by. 
I caught the bus and got off at Alexander Platz and walked around for ages in awe of the amazing buildings and history all right in front of me. I've been lucky with the weather as, even though it's freezing cold, it's still so lovely when the sun is shining.

Our Saturday breakfast - including chocolate croissant -yum!
