How much German can I learn in 6 hours? 🚆 Berlin → ???

Can you really learn a language on the go?
Today I’m putting that to the test! I’m boarding a train at Berlin Ostbahnhof and traveling 6½ hours across Germany – using the time to boost my German in real, everyday situations. 🚆🇩🇪

Along the way, I:
✅ decode signs and posters at the station
✅ build vocab from things I see around me
✅ practise grammar that appears in real life
✅ order food and drinks in German
✅ watch a Coffee Break video about train travel vocabulary
✅ keep track of everything in my trusty notebook!

The train may be heading all the way to Paris…
…but I get off somewhere else 👀 The destination is a secret — and part of another video!

🌟 Try this wherever you are
Listen to announcements, read posters, and notice the language around you — whether you’re commuting, walking the dog, or enjoying a coffee break. Learning doesn’t need to happen in a classroom!
