A note from Lilly Billy

Today was our first full day in Berlin. Its been so nice to be together as a group, and exchange stories about our times with our host families. Our wonderful tour guides took us to a few extremely interesting places, but one really stood out to me. Inside an old original 5 story building, local artists have put together seperate art exhibits of their very own work as well as others. The builing itself is a work of art, the inside walls and ceilings having been painted and drawn on in an ecclectic and weirdly appealing way. Every aritist has something different to bring to the table, from paintings and sculptures to jewelery and clothing, all of which are one of a kind pieces. The funkiness of the building and the altogether vibe of the gallery gave me a super fun and hip feeling that left me wanting more, and it really was hard for me to leave. I would love to come here again, and bring more people to see how absolutely amazing this place is.
