I took a long weekend to visit friends and family in Berlin. Sven and his family live in a suburb to the southeast of Berlin called Köpenick. I spent Saturday morning and afternoon with them and toured the nice downtown area while they were out doing errands. On Sunday, I met up with my cousin Felix and his girlfriend Dörthe and went for some urban exploration.

Teufelsberg ↑
Felix and me climbed the Teufelsberg hill and joined a tour of the former NSA listening station on top of it. The abandoned facility is now in the hands of street artists, transforming its morbid charme into a colorful gallery.
Tempelhofer Feld ↑
For a walk over the Tempelhofer Feld, an abandoned airport turned local recreation area.
Köpenick ↑
Taking the camera out for a tour through downtown, posing for a selfie with the Hauptmann von Köpenick. Köpenick is situated alongside the Dahme and Spree rivers, the latter of which also flows through Berlin.
