As a member of the International Associate Clubs (IAC) you get unlimited access to all areas of the club. This also applies to the excellent meeting rooms. The coronation: the sensational staff.

Tons of books, yes, you have to search a bit, but after 15 minutes I walked out with 3. and best part is they are on loan, meaning I have two months to read them and when I return them I get all my money back -€1.50 for each book. Which is great for a traveler who doesn't want to carry around a bunch of books and weight but loves to read. I can't wait to finish my books and get more.

This was my second time at Another Country; the first time we tried to visit on a Monday without…read morerealizing they were open Tuesday-Sunday. Blerg. Anyway we finally made it in tonight. The staff seemed pretty enough, as in we were greeted, given general directions on their purchasing/lending rules, then free to browse without interruption. I'd describe this store as a shitshow in the best sense of the word. I've never been in a building like this, in Germany or otherwise. The rooms were massive with 18-20 feet high ceilings and STACKED with books. The sections were categorized by fiction, crime novels, biographies and so on. In my opinion, the books were 70% basic run of the mill garage sale type books, so you really have to dig deep to find anything worthwhile. We purchased 5 books for the whopping cost of 25.50€, and if we return them we get all of our €€€€ back, minus 1.50€ per book. Not a bad deal and for this reason, I'd definitely return!

I hate to say that, but it's the truth. I've been harassed a few times. One time I remember a lady had her take-out dinner and groceries stolen off of her bike while she was in a Capoeira class. Some music equipment has gone missing, and I have been witness to a few fights. 15 year olds are always bugging me for cigarettes, which is just bothersome and tragic. I hope that the community starts to take better care of this place. It's unfortunate to see a space like this being abused by some of its members.

I've walked by WerkStadt several times but not stopped in yet, until last night…read more After an unsuccessful attempt to find an interesting kneipe in Kreuzberg (although, with admittedly particular criteria and high standards), my companion and I braved haphazard public transportation to head back to our hood. Once in Neukölln, he suggested we check out one of our local bars, WerkStadt. I dig this place. As he commented, it was a bit cold, but overall the atmosphere is still quite inviting. There are two rooms, tables with candles, couches, a chalkboard bar menu, pleasant lighting, art on the walls and lots of people who seem to really know and enjoy one another's company. The beer was good and cheap, and the overall concept of the business as an artist space is something I dig. Best of all, this is a short walk away from my flat. I can definitely see becoming a semi-regular here.
