The latter. I don’t think it’s fair to say I was underwhelmed (I wasn’t), I enjoyed my time despite the feeling of how prescribed a lot of the parties/clubs/people felt (party enough like I do and you’re sure to come across this, it’s not unique to Berlin).

I just had this possibly _too_ high expectation of the Berlin techno club/party scene before I got there, and it just didn’t wow me like I had heard it would (despite having a great time and no issues).

Berlin as a city, however, exceeded my expectations..which definitely adds to my confusion on my overall sentiment towards everything
