Israeli Writer Avivit Mishmari Reflects on Life in Berlin Since 2023

Israeli author Avivit Mishmari moved to Berlin in 2023 seeking peace. She describes the city as a vast, indifferent metropolis that offers anonymity, particularly on Kurfürstendamm and in quiet side streets. Mishmari appreciates Berlin's detachment and finds comfort in being surrounded by other immigrants who have left their homelands. She notes the linguistic diversity around her while acknowledging nuances remain unreadable. Her reflections appear in a recent publication by Der Freitag.
