DAY SEVEN – OUR FIRST TRIP COMES TO AN END
Welcome back to the last day of our journey. The time has come to say goodbye to Berlin. But before we leave the city, we experience the pulse of Berlin and discover its former west center and, there, the beautiful boulevard Ku’damm. The place is full of exciting history. Thus, learn more about it together with us.
CUTE ANIMALS & COMMITTED CONSERVATION OF SPECIES
There are good reasons to think about zoos in a critical way. Together with Emilie, however, we had the pleasure of being guided by Dr. Tobias Rahde through the Berlin Zoo. The sympathetic biologist, who is responsible for the birds and the protection of species in the zoo, has given us a deeper insight into the work and the importance of the park.
So, visit with us the cute meerkats, pandas and sea lions. Moreover, learn more about animal conservation and preservation from page 64.
FROM THE ROOTS TO MODERN STYLES OF JAZZ
Then, follow us to the cozy Zig Zag Club to learn more about jazz. Besides, feel invited to listen to a jam session by Dimitris Christides, who is the owner of the club, and Jens Fischer Rodrian. Do you remember that guy? We met the art director of the Blue Man Group on the first day of our Berlin journey high up in the Panoramapunkt. As you will see, he is also a great jazz musician.
THE LAST SUPPER
Hopefully, restaurants and bars can reopen soon. Of course, in line with the new Corona pandemic rules. In times like this, we especially remember Emilie’s last dinner in the wonderful Duke Restaurant, which is located in the Ellington Hotel. Experience together with Emilie one of the finest diners in Berlin, before we close the Berlin chapter.

We, the VALEUR GUIDES, are a group of friends who discover many different places under the motto: ONE WORLD. A goal is to meet people with exciting stories to tell.
Thereby, we will discover new places for 7 days each. From there, we will present seven intensive, emotional, and entertaining video episodes about people with exciting stories to tell. Furthermore, we will deal with their place’s culture, traditions, history, lifestyle, art, leisure activities, and, thus, many values.
Additionally, we will present additional stories and facts in accompanying issues of the VALEUR MAGAZINE.
