The day begins at Hi! Studios on Sonnenallee, with yoga, pilates and spinning classes to stretch the body and energize the mind. Leave feeling heroic and ready to take on the day – or at least able to justify a delicious breakfast. A stroll through the still-sleepy neighborhood brings you to La Maison. Watch the city wake up around you as you dip a perfectly flaky croissant into a creamy latte. For a moment, you might think you're in Paris, not Berlin. Once the body is satisfied, the brain makes its move. Wander into Buchbund, a cozy bookshop where German, English and Polish titles line the shelves. Time slips by as you browse, arms gradually filling with books you can't wait to read. Nowhere is the season more beautiful than in the Comenius Garden. Find a sunny bench, settle in, and lose yourself in your new book as sunlight stretches across the paths. When your fingers start to get cold, Mausi welcomes you with warmth and lunch. Eat, sip, and let the day unfold into a rare calm that only mornings like this can bring.
