Just Me – Your Berlin Wanderlust Companion

How a Guy from Argentina Fell in Love with Berlin

It started with curiosity – and turned into a tradition. After my first visit, something kept calling me back.
Berlin isn’t just a destination for me; it’s a feeling. A clash of history and energy. A place that accepts contradictions, reinvention, and depth.

Over time, I stopped being a tourist. I found rhythms, places, and stories that felt like mine. From Kreuzberg’s corners to early morning walks along the Spree, I started mapping my own version of the city – and now I share it here with you.

Why You Can Trust My Berlin Tips

• 10+ visits to Berlin: I know the city beyond the highlights – and I keep coming back.
• First-hand experience: I don’t repeat what others say. Every recommendation comes from my own walks, tours, and discoveries.
• Local collaborations: I connect with Berlin-based guides, cafés, and curators to bring you real insights.
• No paid placements: My tips are not sponsored – if I mention a place, it’s because it moved me.
• Passion for places: This is not a mass travel blog. Berlin Wanderlust is a personal map of memories, ideas, and joy.

Why Berlin? And Why This Blog?

Berlin is more than a travel destination for me – it’s a place of personal resonance, curiosity, and constant rediscovery.
What started as a spontaneous city break has become a tradition. Each visit feels like returning to a familiar rhythm,
while still uncovering something new.

I created this blog to document my experiences, share honest insights, and highlight those small moments that rarely make it
into official guides. Berlin’s energy, contradictions, humor, and rawness speak to me – and perhaps to you too.

Whether you’re visiting Berlin for the first time or the fifth, I hope you find something here that inspires your own
journey. This blog is a blend of street-level impressions, practical tips, and heartfelt enthusiasm – always honest,
sometimes messy, never mass-produced.

My Philosophy as a Guide

I’m not a professional guide. I don’t wear a badge, wave a flag, or follow a script. What I offer here is personal,
imperfect, and shaped by experience rather than training.

To me, being a guide means pointing to the things I love – and explaining why they moved me. It’s not about ticking
off top ten lists, but about finding your own rhythm in the city. Sometimes that’s through a tour, sometimes through
a quiet bench under linden trees.

I believe that real travel doesn’t need perfection. It needs openness, good shoes, and a little context. That’s what
I try to offer – here, on this site, and through every recommendation.

Favorite Places to Begin Your Berlin Journey

Everyone has a different Berlin. For some, it’s historical. For others, wild, artistic, or green. Here are a few
places I keep returning to – perfect for first impressions or quiet rediscoveries.

• Brandenburg Gate – History, symbolism, and a perfect place to start walking.
• Kreuzberg – A mix of resistance, street food, and everyday Berlin.
• Museum Island – Quiet courtyards, world-class collections, and slow beauty.
• East Side Gallery – Art on concrete – and memories you drive past.
• Berlin Cathedral – Baroque, powerful, reflective – a dome above it all.
