Berlin’s architecture is quite varied. Although badly damaged in the final years of World War II and broken apart during the Cold War, Berlin has reconstructed itself greatly, especially with the reunification push after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. It is now possible to see representatives of many different historic periods in a short time within the city center, from a few surviving medieval buildings near Alexanderplatz, to the ultramodern glass and steel structures in Potsdamer Platz. Because of its tumultuous history, Berlin remains a city with many distinctive neighborhoods.

My job takes me all over the world and I have had to get used to the idea of flying. As I grew up I was terrified of flying, but I managed to get over that fear eventually with hypnotherapy. What I learned during my therapy was that it was actually the organizational side of flying that scared me! I wasn’t actually too scared of falling out of the sky, I was worried about my bags being lost, suffering from jet lag, not being able to find the people who were meeting me off the plane and losing my tickets! A while ago I found a website which really helped me sort out my problems with flying. It was full of great flying advice and it really helped me prepare for my business trips.
It’s funny that I started off my life so frightened of flying, yet I end up with a career which takes me all over the world – on planes! Now that I can deal with flying I actively seek out flights which will take me on different routes! This is probably a little bit perverse, but it is a way of me saying that I have conquered my fears, and I am now going to cover as much sky as I possibly can! I regularly use a website which shows flight maps so I can get an idea of the route the flights take.
