Most of the time we were wandering around Friedrichshain and Kreuzberg. I didn’t make a lot of photos because one time I forgot to take my spare battery with me and the other day I left the SD Card in the laptop. But here you go with the pictures I managed to make ;-)

A big part of the crowd belonged to the german “Piraten Partei” and they also organized a large truck with loud music. It kind of felt like being at the Love Parade being near the truck and the overall atmosphere was really cool. Everybody had fun except the police. Probably you heard about the poor guy who got beaten up by them just because he asked for a police men’s ID.

Apart from the demonstration we were exploring Berlin without a certain destination just walking around, visiting certain spots and hanging around in cafés or bars.

As usual the pictures aren’t photoshopped but left in their original state. If you need higher resolutions without jpg compression or want to use my work commercially feel free to contact me.

The lighting conditions were quite bad as there was only a very dimmed light which changed a lot during the performance. Trying to take the pictures without a flash to accomplish more natural colors wasn’t easy. Especially as I wanted to take good pictures that didn’t look too blurry.

Melt!-Festival – First Stop

We started at the Melt!-Festival. It was really cool, except the weather was kind of bad on friday which is why we missed Trentemoller and Moderat. That was really sad as these were 2 of the acts we wanted to see most.

On the other hand we met some really nice people there and the acts we saw were really good. Digitalism was playing live and it was absolutely awesome. I kind of lost track of all the bands and DJs we saw, but Aphex Twin, The Whitest Boy Alive, Ellen Allien, Paul Kalkbrenner where really cool ;-)

There are no photos from the festival itself as I couldn’t take my camera on the festival but only from the life on the campsite.

Prague – Second stop

The next station on our trip was Prague, where we arrived in the middle of the night, without a GPS or any idea how to find our hostel. After driving through the city without much of an idea we finally found our The Czech Inn Design Hostel and it was really stunning. We explored the city the next days visiting some of the typical spots like the Carls Bridge and the Rajin but stayed there just as long as we had too. Wandering around the “real” Prague and the outer circles was much more interesting and the Spy-City Map was really helpful.

Weidental / Brebu Nou – Third stop

A little exhausted after some days of wandering around we drove off to Romania. We visited some of my relatives and then went to our house in the mountains where we stayed for a week. It was really relaxing with not much more to do than shooting some photos, cooking and wandering around.

Vienna – Fourth stop

Our final stop was Vienna were we also stayed in a famous hostel, the Hostel Ruthensteiner. Again we didn’t visit the first district, but explored mainly the 5th, 6th and 7th as they were much more interesting and alternative with a lot of small shops and loads of Street-Art everywhere.
