Berlin is for lovers
Maybe not the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the German capital, but after my latest trip there, I might have changed my mind a little.
It actually started in Brussels
Our story actually started in Brussels, on a hot evening in early July.
We met for the first time and what was meant to be an ordinary escort date somehow turned into a genuine connection. I felt there was an ease between us from the beginning, and before I knew it, the evening had flown by, and i felt sorry I had to leave. He told me that he would like to see me again, but you never really know if it will actually happen.
So when Bianca called me a few weeks later to say he wanted to see me again, this time in Berlin, my answer was a very easy yes. 🙂 After Brussels, I was genuinely looking forward to seeing him again.
Brussels to Berlin
Early August arrived, and so did my early flight.
I left a grey, rainy Brussels behind, only to arrive in a grey, rainy Berlin. Not exactly the beautiful summer arrival I had pictured in my head, but luckily Berlin had better plans for us later that day.
We met again in the lobby of the Ritz-Carlton. Seeing him felt surprisingly familiar. There was no awkward second meeting or need to find our rhythm again. It simply felt as if we were continuing where we had left off a few weeks earlier.
We went upstairs first, had some time to catch up and enjoy being together again, and after that we headed out into Berlin.
A little bit of Berlin
With so much history around us, walking seemed like the best way to see the city. We wandered from Museum Island towards the Brandenburg Gate, taking our time and enjoying everything along the way. And finally, the clouds started to disappear. The sun came out, which turned out to be perfect timing because our next stop was one of his favourite spas.
My first nude spa
In the middle of Berlin was this huge wellness oasis that somehow felt completely removed from the city outside. With the sun out, the water and the relaxed atmosphere, it almost felt more like being somewhere in Bali than in Germany.
We stayed there for the entire afternoon.
It was also my first time visiting a nude spa.
I wasn’t quite sure beforehand how I would feel about that, but it ended up being much more natural than I expected. Sharing that first experience with him made it even more memorable. It felt relaxed, freeing and, yes, maybe just a little tantalising too.
Italian food and finishing with a nightcap
After spending the afternoon there, we headed out for Italian food.
By then it felt like we had already fitted so much into one day, but somehow it still wasn’t quite over. After dinner we went back to the hotel and finished the evening with a nightcap at the bar.
A simple ending to a really lovely day.
One last walk through Berlin
The next morning we had time for one last walk through Berlin before it was time to say goodbye again.
It’s funny how quickly a trip can start feeling like its own little world. We were already talking about the things we had done, remembering moments from the day before and wondering when we might see each other again.
