Tapetenwechsel
Tapetenwechsel
From Reno to Berlin
The German word Tapetenwechsel means a change of scenery, literally a change of wallpaper. (It’s also the title of a great song by Hildegard Knef.) Going from Reno, Nevada to Berlin is a major change of scenery – from the dry desert on the edge of the Sierra to the green flat lands along the River Spree. From the “American way of life” to the German way of life (and the German language). I hope you’ll join me. > Berlin Blog > Photos (New!)
