Besides experiencing the
dynamics of city life, I
want to go ‘back to basic’
and not forget about the
authentic things in life
such as nature

25. The City for Life Parent
Even with the problems that happen in
this huge city, we love to live here. It
has so many great restaurants, lots of
theatres, shopping malls, parks, the
cultural life is very nice here. SP is
also the financial capital of the country
so lots of business happen here.
Changing experience with people
around the world will help me and my
family to deal with bad stuff that SP
has, making our life more enjoyable.

26. 2. Going back to basic
Starlitsky
My daughter loves being outside, so
much so that if she wants to go play
outside, she will get her shoes and have
me put them on and the get my shoes and
try to put them on for me. So whether she
is just sitting in the grass exploring or
getting to run around on a playground
she just loves being outside.

27. 3. The Modern Family
My parents encouraged me to leave the kids at
home with them as they love kids and would be
more than happy to look after them. It is
important in our family that we see the children
grow up and they do not spend hours being looked
after in a daycare center or a babysitter. We love
to keep the ties with the children tight in the
family.

Our families don’t live in Berlin. We Skype
regularly with them. My 15month old daughter
starts to realize, that her grandparents talk to
her through the iPhone or tablet and she loves
it. She waves her hand to them and talks
something in her baby language.

4. Getting around
Routine trips are to the store, up
into town to meet friends, to baby
groups and group activities. If
we’re staying local, we use the
stroller because Iz LOVES to face
out and stare at people as we pass,
nosy little biddy.*lol*.
We have regular play groups in our
area, they’re very important for her
socialization and for my sanity!
Some of them have music and
singing, all of them have friends for
her to play with, and we love them.
