2 Man:   Britta, you’re English, but you live in Berlin. Have you lived here for a long time? Woman:   Well, I was born in England, but I’ve lived in Germany for the past twenty years. I arrived in Berlin about four years ago. Before that, I lived in Bonn for six years, but I work as a journalist, and when the newspaper moved to Berlin, I moved with them. Man:   Were you pleased to come to Berlin? Woman:   Yes, I was. I was looking forward to being in a big city like Berlin. Bonn was quite a lot smaller, so I love the busy atmosphere and all the culture entertainments here: museums, theatres and so on. the only thing I don’t like is the traffic; it’s a bit noisy in the mornings. It wakes me up about 6.30, but most days I have to get up early anyway! Man:   Where do you live in Berlin? Woman:   I have a flat in the old part of the city. It’s right in the centre, and it’s not too expensive – it costs me about £500 a month. My street is becoming very popular: there are lots of new art galleries, and small cafés and friendly restaurants everywhere. Eating out in Berlin is fun, and it’s cheap, so it’s something I do quite often. Man:   How do you find transport in Berlin? Woman:   Well, the transport system here is very good, so I have a tram and bus ticket, but in fact, most of the time I cycle. Travel here is much cheaper than in other countries I know – perhaps that’s why people don’t walk very much! Man:   What do you like to do in Berlin at the weekends? Woman:   Well, I like art, so sometimes I go to one of the galleries. I have a nephew called Philippe. He’s only three but he likes coming with me. He likes the café best, I think. And it’s a change from going to the park – that’s something he does very often. He usually comes out with me while his parents go shopping. Man:   Do you miss your friends and family in England? Woman:   I don’t really miss England – most of my friends are here. I don’t see much of my work colleagues socially, but I’ve got some very good friends who live in the same street as me. I enjoy meeting people, and I find Berlin is a very friendly city. Man:   Thank you for talking to us, Britta.
