Berlin surprised the hell out of me, didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. We did a few hours of touristy stuff, the Brandenburg gate and the Riechstag, but quickly got bored. We probably only spent about 3 hours in West Berlin.
The nightlife and culture is amazing, we were staying near Ostbanhof station. The bars, restaurants and clubs were great. One thing that surprised me when we were in the bars and clubs was how friendly Berliners are, we found this one little club underneath a railway viaduct just south of Alexanderplatz, probably only had a capacity of 200. Noone was on their phones, everyone was chatty and it didn't shut till 1pm the next afternoon
Oh, and there was this flea market/festival thing at Mauerpark in the north which had an incredible atmosphere, would absolutely recommend to anyone thinking of visiting Berlin.
EDIT: I feel as though my trip was made much better by actually meeting and getting recommendations from the locals, as opposed to just going to the tourist traps.

I got info from some years back that Turkish Mountaineering Federation is organizing big traditional climb every year, but couldn't find any info on it. It seems it doesn't exist any more...
Thanks for help!
PS: Actually all there is in northern hemisphere is climbed July/August
So two weeks until I move to Osaka. First time I've ever done serious long term abroad, so kind of just checking if anyone has any suggestions for items to pack that I probably won't have thought to pack but which are a pain to get/any other long term advice.
Also, on the off chance anyone knows any good pubs in the Suita area, but that's just so I have somewhere to deal with the culture shock.

That's actually a great idea. Cheers Jhess.
Recently got back from Italy. Leaving for the aforementioned Scotland trip tomorrow!
Did you enjoy Italy? I went with my parents as a young teen and loved it.
If you're in Edinburgh in the next week, could meet up for a pint.
i'm in porto
