I couldn’t meet Evan in person. His colleague was diagnosed with Covid, hence Evan had to be tested and self-isolate until he got his test results. Evan is another match on OkCupid. He’s originally from Australia, but has been in Berlin for quite a while.  Instead of meeting we spoke for an hour via Video......

Many of us know what it means to take on a new work project and make it a success. But dating has never been as straightforward for me.  Dora and I are now six days into the challenge. That’s six days into our new city, six days into our brand new lives. Six days into......

In a rush to scarf a quick meal before going out on Tuesday, I found an Italian restaurant willing to rush a pizza order (take-away only). I ordered this along with an Aperol spritz, took my drink, found an unserviced oversized table occupied by one young boy, and sat on the edge of the bench.......

I found date #4 on OkCupid. Chad. Italian, good looking, good job. I downloaded the dating app after a friend suggested it and matched with Chad in the morning. Three messages later and we had our date for the evening: Walking George in Treptow Park, potentially followed by a glass of wine. The evening was......

Xavier and I have sort of dated before. In LA, Berlin, and London. Sort of. One of my problems is never being quite clear upfront whether something is a date. I mean, I’m almost entirely sure it’s because I’m shy about being vulnerable (that thing I’m working on). And, because I’m afraid of getting stuck......

Life in times of Corona is interesting on so many levels. One of the maybe more trivial, but nevertheless intriguing ones is that we run into situations where we see people’s eyes only (at least in Germany, where masks are mandatory in public transport). This is how I met David. Eyes (okay…and body!) only. We......
