   Many of these places depopulated since 1990, and young people continue to leave.

   That leaves behind places where the physical infrastructure is sometimes passable, but life has gone.

   When I have told west German friends I am going to these places they often react "Are you going to be OK there?"

   I am a white man, so I’ll be OK - it might be different were I a woman from an ethnic minority.

   This story I will tell in this thread - as a Berlin-dwelling, well travelled, Brit who became German.
