>They're personal, but it's just a fun city to live in

Sure that's understandable, but that's nothing objective in that, that's just a personal choice based on personal taste and circumstances, which can apply to any other city if you think about it.

There are so many other fun cities in Europe where you don't have to put up with all that nonsense.

That's nothing special to warrant overhyping Berlin even further, it already suffers from a branch of the Paris syndrome they could call it Berlin syndrome.



Agree. DACH countries are among the most desirable for immigrants globally. Natives are hyper self-aware about their desirability and one can feel it when negotiating a job with them or making business with them. Many immigrants (ehem.... expats) masochistically buy into their hosts' superiority. Well if suffering if fun for them... in the end masochism is invention of German speaking world.


Absolutely. I ended up here by chance. It could have been elsewhere. To each their own.
