We’re StripedCat and MeinMann, also known as (RC)^2. We live in Rome and, ab und zu, in Berlin.
Magic quality of light, splendeur et décadence on one side.
The making of Europe’s capital and a strong sense of future, on the other one.
Difficult to say which city we like best. We like both, and try to make the most of them.

ciao! i live in rome and i’m planning to move [to emigrate?] to berlin. i’ve found your blog surfing ‘ab und zu’, and i think that’s definitely become a basic resource for me!
i don’t think i’ll go there on my motorbike, but i’ll keep your blog in mind where i do
if you’d like to spend a couple of hours telling me about berlin before i live, i’d be very glad too meet you somewhere!

Guys – loving it that you quite regularly quote from my Monocolums but please do me a favor and spell my name correctly: It’s “Markus” as you can see in the byline.
Excellent blog, keep up the good work!
Cheers,
Markus Albers, Berlin
Hi Markus,
thank you for pointing that out…typo corrected!
I had a look to your website: not only Monocle but also Brand Eins is among our favourite mags! will keep on following you on paper and online!
Cheers,

Hi, StripedCat + MeinMann,
thanks for the correction and for the compliment. Really have to give it back. I’ve subscribed to your RSS-feed now to leran about Berlin via Rome. Strange, modern times we live in …
Cheers,
Markus
I loved your Digital Naives article for its bauhaus feeling…”form follows function”. Or rather, twit follows function (otherwise better keep silent)!
ciao,
Striped
