Just stumbled across this charming collection of leaves that fellow expatriate Berlin-dweller Christoph Niemann made for the New York Times last fall.
Seems like it’s been a long time since trees have had leaves. The pre-spring warm days that come in March always feel strange to me for that reason – I find it odd to see people eating in front of cafes and picknicking in the parks, all beneath bare, leafless trees. Well, the first leaves will be coming soon, and we will report on them here.
