S-Bahn, U-Bahn + bike in Berlin


Which means of transport do you use usually?
Berlin is a city of great transport system. It has two types of subway: S-Bahn and U-Banh, trams and buses go all over around the city. And really good point is everything comes just on time. Ok, we have small problem here – a lot of reconstructions take place some time. But you easily can switch one to another because usually they are all connected somehow, especially in the city center. You need to get used to the system and how it works, but when you learn everything it will be really easy to get any where.
Also Berlin has good system of bicycle roads.

Why do you use it?
I use public transport because first I don’t have a car, but I don’t care about it, because in such a city as Berlin it is even easier to go with tram or subway.
Second is when you go with a car you can’t see as much as when you go with public transport. For example you can have a good tour just using ring subway, because it doesn’t go underground but across the city.

Which is your favorite means of transport?
But my favorite type of transport is my bicycle. Love it).

Why?
I love to travel with my bicycle because I can stop where ever I want. it’s cheaper, just by a it one time, you can buy a second hand at one of the floh-markets. And bicycle roads are everywhere. You can park your bike near subway station or go with it there, but in that case you need to buy extra ticket for bike.

Berlin Traffic – See the city’s people

Which means of transport do you use usually?
I usually use public transportation.

Why do you use it?
I like to look out of the window of overground trains, watching at people on the street. What is even more interesting is looking at people directly around me in trains.

Which is your favorite means of transport?
Depends on the city. Summer in cities where you can ride a bike is great. The huge advantage is having the overall control. But when I am exausted from my day I prefer public transportation-. Then I can relax on my way home.

Why?
I like to chose a way through the city to get food for my eyes. When I can go by bike I get a lot of impressions from the city itself, when I use public transportation I get impressions from the people living there. And there are many different kinds of people around. Some are conservative, some alternative, different cultures and aims. When I observe this stuff I feel creativity coming up in my mind. As I am an author in my freetime I use the public transportation as one of my creativity sources. Even taking the same way every day at similar time – the environment and therefore the impressions are different. That is what I need for my fantasy…
