Five years ago, when I first came to Germany, the Volksbühne in Berlin was the first theater I visited. Five years later, I finally had the opportunity to attend a performance inside the theater, and, incredibly, I was fortunate enough to witness the legendary device: the fire curtain!
Among the six productions I watched at this year's Berlin Theater Festival (Theatertreffen), "Die Vernichtung" from the Bern Theatre in Switzerland was my absolute favorite! I was so captivated that I was afraid to miss even a single captivating moment!
On the way to Berlin, my friend asked, "Do you know what food you should try in Berlin? The delicious Vietnamese pho!" I understood that she wasn't just talking about Vietnamese pho, but was highlighting that Berlin offers a variety of delicious international cuisines to try.
I really love the apartment we rented in Berlin! My friend and I each have our own bedroom and bathroom, and we also have a cozy shared living space for interaction. This way, we can enjoy a relaxed and undisturbed lifestyle. It's the ideal way for me to travel.
Fleeing Tokyo DisneySea within half a day, my friend who came with me was really unlucky.
Many years ago, when my friends and I were in Tokyo, we had a feast enjoying a delicious pufferfish hot pot. At that time, we made a promise that someday in the future, we would come back together to relish another pufferfish feast.
In Russia, caviar is everywhere, from supermarkets and restaurants to specialty stores. Initially, I purchased some affordable canned salmon caviar from a supermarket. Upon opening the can, I was hit by an intense fishy odor that was so strong it almost deterred me from tasting it. Eating it with some bread, I couldn't help but wonder if this daunting caviar was really the famous delicacy everyone talks about.
Suzdal, located northeast of Moscow, is one of the ancient cities on Russia's famous Golden Ring.
The sudden change of the program, which is rarely encountered in Taiwan, was quite an eye-opener for me.
The image printed on the Russian 100 ruble note is that of the Moscow Bolshoi Theatre, which is celebrating its 240th anniversary this year. It was one of the main reasons for my visit to Moscow. The facade of the theatre is dominated by a striking statue of the sun god Apollo driving a chariot pulled by four bronze horses, making it one of Moscow's iconic landmarks.
