India, Panoramen eines Landes

The Volkswagen Forum on Unter den Linden is an interactive place, where you can find a nice place for a cake and icecream, the latest models of Volkswagen, but also regular exhibitions, mainly focused on photography. 

As the company has a factory in India, they went in contact with the local people and entrepreneurs. The beautiful architecture and mysterious colours are the subject of the current exhibition, that can still be admired - for free - till 18 November.

Welcome to the Indian labyrinth

India's most important cultural and tourist objectives are featured in very inspiring photographies that invite you to include this destination as one of your favorites for the next year. You will not see exposed too much the poverty - that it is mentioned though in some of the descriptions of the photographs - but only what will attract anyone curious to find out more about this amazing culture. 

The future is somewhere in between and I know that both sides of the coin are a good lesson of life. The photographs are offering serious reasons to discover India and a good start into a different world. 

Working around Unter den Linden

I have not been in the Unter den Linden/Friedrischstrasse area for a couple of weeks, but I noticed some massive works around. Practically, due to the works at a new/old U-Bahn station, you will cross the Unter den Linden direction Galeries Lafayettes, near the construction works. There is always something to build in this city but especially in the domain of transportation. Even though they found some creative pavillions allowing you to go safely to do your shopping without looking around at the construction site, it is still not a good memory for someone visiting the city for the first time. 

Autumn in Dahlem

If it is something I love about autumn, this is the diversity of natural colours

A curious eye around the campus of Technische Universitaet

One week ago, the weather was gorgeous: mild, sunny, and if not the yellow leaves all over the place I would believe that it is spring. But it was clearly an illusion, as yesterday evening and today I started to read more and more news about the snow in the South and even in Cottbus. I do not have too many plans for the winter - at least not in Germany - , but I wish that the weather will stay for a couple of weeks sunny and pleasant enough to continue my active work as a photographer and Berlin chronicler. 

A little bit of Monday self-promo

Because till now - 9.48am - the bad weather - cold rain - reduced significanlty the chances for a good walks in the sunny woods, I had a bit of time to evaluate the activity of the ForeignerinBerlin: in the last 11 months, we had 204 posts and 1,006 readers, lots of pictures and daily news about the city, as well as very subjective reports about the daily reality - the weather included.

Thank you to all my readers for stopping by and promise to keep the stakes high!

Keep in touch!
