People in this city. Just why is it that they are staring so much? Why must Berliners be so rude in every walk of life – well, or those who liove aorund here? I constantly avert my eyes. General feeling of insecurity right now, hope it passes.

Hm, contact lenses help. I’m getting better at this. But in the winter, with the city so dark and everyone hidden away in big coats and scarves, you don’t really see people’s faces anyway ;-)

In my neighborhood, people, especially men, will get the wrong idea if you walk around with a too happy and open face and happen to meet their gaze. Some will practice their stare on you and not even avert their eyes when you catch them doing it. Last but not least, the streets are very dirty so it does make sense to watch one’s feet.
I’ve been living around here for seven years now and have really come to internalize this “law”, but I’m so fed up with it, and I’m making a resolution to be look up when I walk and to ignore the stares and whistles!
As for stepping onto dirt, well that’s just a chance I have to take ;-)

I’ve managed to ditch this particular habit. Which is good. It kinda helps when there is someone walking next to you. Particularly if that someone is tall, cute and male…

Worth doing!

I always do this when I walk, and I walk alot, just for pleasure.

People think you’re wierd to be looking all around instead of averting eye contact, but I don’t mind, and neither should you.

The important thing is that it lets you examine the details and beauty of the world around you, and all the care and thought that goes into all the things we see and hear and smell.

To touch the walls and flowers and lamposts as you walk and embrace the weather is great.

WORTH DOING.

I’ve stopped doing this subconsciously. I’ll probably still do it occasionally, but definitely not as much as I used to – constantly.

I’m much better at this than I used to.
But I’m not going to mark this as done just yet.
