Issue #114 (19 Aug) – pigeons' enemy no. 1; KitKat FAQ; great events and a raffle; Coffee with Luardo; do you have a mentor?; food festivals... blah; fight for Döner; tactics on time management.
About Food Festivals, I still attend and recommend the Chilli Festival at Berliner Berg Brauerei. Main reason for that is because you can try so many different chilli sauces without having to buy a full bottle. If you're a chilli enthusiast, it's really worth going. I already went 3 times and it's always the same thing: I visited every stand and tried every sauce; then at the end of the day I bought 2 bottles from my favourite sauces to take home (in the mean time, I also stop to eat something and drink some beers). I dislike the fact that you have to pay to enter the venue, but I still think it's worth if you like chilli :D
"Stats: Data is from the tax year 2020: almost 77k (or 4%) taxpayers had an income higher than €125k and contributed almost 41,3% in Berlin state coffers."
As someone who just barely made it into those 4%, this stat is really the nail in the coffin. Already planning to move soon to a place that is not a tax hell and can still offer a better living environment.

Thanks Francisco, I will mention it next time :)
Probably niche festivals make more sense!

You are moving out of Berlin?
Yup
