I recently went to Timisoara in Romania for coworking with some friends. Check out the video of the trip. Special thanks to Madhvi for creating awesome pancakes for breakfast every morning 🙂
Jelly coworking does Timisoara
I’m a member of an awesome coworking group in Berlin called the Jelly coworking group. Check out my other post for pretty photos of the trip.
We realised that a subway ticket across town was about the same price as a ticket to Romania via my airline (Ryan Air), so we hopped on a plane to the beautiful city of Timisoara. Whilst there, we met up with the friendly folk at the Timisoara Startup Hub who kindly helped out with office space during our visit.
I recorded our adventure with my trusty GoPro strapped to a dildo 🙂
Starring: Cheerful team leader Craig, official translator Nadia, super pancake girl Madhvi, skippy Francisco and dildo operator Ryan.
Koln memorial
I came across this very old church whilst walking around Köln in Germany. It is known as Alt St. Alban. It was a church which was destroyed during World War 2 and is now used as a memorial to the victims of war.
Photo difficulties
My friend Madvhi took a photo of me last night. It came out oddly, with strange white lines everywhere. When I tried to do a selfie, the framed picture on the wall behind me got messed up. I can’t figure out why. Very odd.
Turmwanderweg hike
I did the Turmwanderweg, a hike in Brandenburg from Bad Freienwalde to Falkenberg. Ze Germans have a strange obsession with putting big towers in the middle of nowhere, for the purpose of climbing and admiring the scenery. This hiking route traversed between six of these for us to check out on our way. We had great weather, and a nice bunch of people as always 🙂
Stasi Museum
Michelle and I visited the Stasi Museum in Lichtenberg, Berlin. The museum is based in the old Stasi head offices.
This is no ordinary belt 😉 The belt clip includes a small semi-transparent window which allows a camera to be placed behind it.
The office of Erich Mielke, head of the Stasi.
An envelope steamer
Key soap, used for replicating keys.
Matt Damon was apparently a member of the Stasi before taking up acting.
Old school Stasi microphone and listening device
Stasi uniform and weaponry
Get Smart would be proud. A shoe designed to hide various equipment, including listening devices.
A Stasi paper shredder. Useful for when you are doing things you shouldn’t be doing.
Erich Mielke’s telephone. It includes hot numbers for all of the major communist bloc places the Stasi needed to communicate with.
