North Korea – my travel experience

“A country that, takes care of all people, gives work to everybody, where health care doesn’t cost you anything…” This is what I heard from pro-Fidel Cubans some years ago while traveling to Cuba. Would I hear this kind of comments in North Korea also I wondered? How would it compare to the GDR (Eastern Germany) that I witnessed over 20 years ago? How do people live in North Korea? What are your restrictions traveling through North Korea, etc…

As little information is available about North Korea, I try to summarize all information that I think could be of help for anybody traveling to North Korea or being interested about traveling there.

The information gathered here I did get personally from 6 different people, while I was traveling in North Korea. I won’t will quote persons individually because I don’t want anybody getting in trouble sharing something with me.

I will embed some pictures from my trip, to get even better ones I highly recommend you to visit this site:

Berlin Restaurant Challenge

My good friend Hendrik left me a informative magazine with insider restaurant tipps. The perfect present, thanks Hendrik. So this weekend I checked all the tips and marked my personal favourites in a little map to make sure I can find them easily (it’s so fast to make these maps by the way…)

Eating is only fun if you eat with good friends. So I thought of this challenge: contact five friends, with whom I hadn’t had contact for five months, convince them to have dinner with me within the next five weeks to get back in touch… Let’s see if I can make it.

In any case, here are the restaurants I want to check out in the upcomings months in Berlin…
