Here in the new hip neighbourhood of Kreuzkölln, crossing over between Kreuzberg into the south in Neukölln, the best way to travel is to go back in time with a retro mobile home, so one of these old style 50-ties mobile homes, that you can see behind us, except in cottage palace, im „Hüttenpalast“ here, they´re not just outside, they´re also inside.
Neighbours...Hello...hello..just wondering, how you´re doing...
Wow, I didn´t expect this....welcome to the, yeah
Wow...welcome to my caravan.
We are wondering how you found „Hüttenpalast“ or cottage palace, as I suppose we would say that?
Actually someone posted a picture on my Facebook wall of this place, yea, a picture of that one over there and then I´d been staying in that one the first night, I´d say in this little palace the second night and here for two nights, so..ok...It´s awesome.
Are you making a complete tour all the way through?
Almost, yeah, but I have to come back to these little huts over there. I am still waiting to get to that one over there. That hadn´t been available.
Oh really, the „Kleine Schwester“, the weird one with the..
Yep..That´s what I am after. Understandably.
When you look out of the window, you´re looking at, basically it looks like a living-room from here, instead of a normal, sort of like campground-experience.
It´s kind of like having a cave. I don´t know, like man needs man cave to go retreat in, which leads to the rather interesting question of exactly: How and if one would have sex here?
How is the privacy when one is in a, in such a strange acoustical space shall we say? Is there echoing? Yeah.
If you hear a snore. Another girl last night asked: People hear you snore and I said I haven´t heard anyone snore, so, I mean there are things like that...well I´ve heard someone snore last night.
Oh yeah? Well, she´s heard someone last night.
It´s weird to leave the backing cabin floor of the cottage palace, because it is a lot like leaving a mobile home camp-ground with all these isolated little worlds, but it´s also like leaving a hostel dorm room for grown-ups
