Intentionat am amanat publicarea vestii cum ca se pregateste un nou maraton al filmelor, de data asta la CinemaPro. Se castiga bilete la Festivalul Benicassim unde participa cateva nume mari pe langa restul zecilor de artisti mai micuti. Teoretic merita sa dati 700.000 de mii pe biletul de intrare, mai ales ca vin si 3 Dj sa va agite in pauzele mai lungi: DJ Optik, DJ Vania si DJ Pagal.

PS: see you there

Plecam din Otopeni cu un avion al celor de la Air Italia. Cam vechi, cam putin loc (deh, clasa economic), dar prajitura buna la bord Pierdem vremea prin Milano pana facem transferul spre Berlin. Un alt avion, chiar daca este al aceleiasi companii aeriene. Doar ca de data asta am simtit pe pielea mea secventele din filmele de actiune in care un avion intra intr-o zona cu turbulente la 700km/h. Si in timpul asta pilotul sa vireze stanga-dreapta cu inclinari de 30 de grade. Nu cred ca mai vreau chestii din astea, Dar mai avem inca 2 drumuri la intoarcere.
Orasul e imens, mijloacele de transport merg de zici ca sunt teleportate, reteaua de metrou/tren e incredibila. Lumea e binevoitoare, vorbesc engleza, dau detalii. Shaworma de la o araboaica e extraordinar de buna. Si ieftina. Facuta cu pasiune
Am vizitat cateva magazine ce dau la fund celor din Romania. Ca preturi…nu foarte ieftin. Oricum multe mai sunt de vizitat si multe de cumparat.
In prima zi de club Transmediale, am reusit sa stam doar la Cobula si la Ebony Bones. Ultimele au ‘rupt’ totul. Foarte misto.
Kick-ul zilei vine de la o pustoaica din club ce m-a intrebat (de 2 ori chiar) daca nu am extasy. Pe fata, fara jena, fara frica.
