this shop has very unique and whimsical smells and you can get a testset with 6 fragrances for 19€, which isnt that much for a small business i think. they have also have perfumes inspired by ficitional characters (the witcher, twilight, baldurs gate, acotar, lotr etc.) and greek mythology, which is cool :) i recommend misa misa, after shower and sunbeam bliss, but take a look for yourself, theres a ton of options!

specifically love Luminae skin scent, Alkemia makes perfume oils that smell amazing and have some great combinations- you can get a sample set for $20 if you want to test a few :)

This indie perfume company makes the most gorgeous, unusual scents. I have Wash Me In The Water, which is so cool and sexy and smells like Troye Sivan emerging from a freshwater pool. They have these cute sample sets you can buy so you can try out a whole bunch if you're feeling indecisive. I gave my sister a tester called Mother Nature's Naughty Daughters, which has this unusual, gorgeously vivid raspberry smell.

A world within a mini atomizer bottle. Get them at ministry of scent, scent split (USA), nose (eu), Bloom, perfumista (UK). Pick a semi-random selection using the notes function - the weirder the better! I think using your nose is good for your brain (source: me, 2024)

is a japanese magazine about art, design and travel. i mostly read the photography articles and haven't had time to check out their other stuff, but those alone are really cool :) definitely worth a read if you're into japanese culture

Hey there, here are some cool things to do in berlin that are not too touristy :)
Activities
~ Herzberg Golf (really pretty minigolf place in Neukölln, if you go in the evening the lights are amazing)
~ Prachtwerk Neukölln (small venue where local artists perform)
~ Berlinische Galerie (museum for modern art in a nice neighborhood)
~ Tempelhofer Feld (used to be an airport, now its just a giant field where you can skate, picknick or just walk around - i think you can rent skates or bikes there, not sure tho)
~ Humboldt Forum (art museum in an old castle, very impressive structure and they have changing exhibitions - this one is not very unknown but worth a visit)
Food
~ La Maison (french bakery in Kreuzberg, a little hipstery but they have amazing pastries!)
~ La Bolognina (handmade pasta, very delicious :))
~ La femme (turkish cuisine, they have multiple restaurants in berlin - the food is heavenly, especially the pide)
~ Sahara Imbiss (for a quick snack, sahara has amazing falafel/halloumi etc. for 4-5€)
Bars
~ Villa Neukölln (cocktails and sometimes livemusic, can get pretty crowded tho so come early)
~ Zum starken August (amazing interior, they have good cocktails and sometimes burlesque performances)
I think thats it for now, hope you have a nice time in berlin :)

try to visit as many onsens as possible, it was one of the best experiences i had in japan! there is nothing like soaking in hot water after walking around in the city all day - and it only costs 3-5€. if you've never been to an onsen you should look up a tutorial beforehand, because there are some rules that are important to know. i also suggest visiting an onsen in the city center for your first time, because they are used to tourists and are more likely to have english signs. i linked an article with some onsens in tokyo, i hope you try one and have an amazing time in japan!
