I started my Sunday as usual with a run through the woods. I find it wonderful and refreshing to be in the bosom nature, to enjoy the sun, fresh air and all the vivid colors. Being in the woods was always something pleasant for me. As a child I used to climb on trees, build sandcastles and play hide and seek with my friends.
Keeping the nature clean is very important to me. We cause way too much pollution - I am incapable of cleaning the world, but at least I can try to keep my surrounding clean.
I took the right way ( no pun intended) and met with my cousin in the City. The weather was great and we went to the Harbor City - a newly constructed district in Hamburg. As you can see in the next pictures, there are still many construction sides. The best way to get there is by the metro. The metro stations are works of art for themselves.
Let's go out! Stairways to heaven!
I for one need both, the city and the nature. It gives me a good balance between because the rush of the city life is sometimes too much stress.
How did you spend your weekend? Let me know!
Steem on, Tim!
Nature of course.

Reminds me of a Rudyard Kipling poem "the way through the woods" and whenever I read it, the scenes became a reality in head. I really wanna live under among the breathing trees rather than being surrounded by the dead concrete.

What a beautiful city, and what stunning photos of it! Very impressed by the quality of your pictures and thanks for explaining everything too! In answer to the question in your title, honestly I prefer the city. Although I do love nature too, and I wish that both can coexist... I think cities that balance both are often the best cities and it looks like your area does that really well!
Thanks for a great post :)

As with most things in life, balance is the key. I prefer rural living but enjoy the benefits of having metropolitan areas within a short commute.

Well, I have always wanted to live in a secluded cabin somewhere out there in the woods far from the urban landscapes but looking at it realistically it just isn't sustainable in the long term. Aesthetically, nothing beats that cabin but when you get down to everyday things like getting groceries, health and hospitals, it's a lot of headache. You'd have to spend a lot on fuel if you want to get to your workplace or a supermart. And what if you suffer a random stroke, maybe even a heart-attack? In the city, you just might reach the hospital in time but when you live in an unknown cabin, I doubt people even know of your existence. I find all this stuff to be really interesting, I'll probably write my next post going in-depth on this topic.
If I had to pick one, I'd say nature but its a tough choice. Nice post man.

Hey Tim, some great shots! I am in love with metro stations, and the purple one looks very futuristic ;) Is there a website where I can see pictures from the other metro stations in Hamburg?

Ideally, I’d like a place in the mountains and a home in the city. That way, if I’d like to get away, I can. But also have a place to stay when I come to the city to work.

After living in both city area and Country area; I can say I much preferred living back in the city area. Although living in the country area brings peaceful and beautiful days, I end up missing my friends back in the city, as well as all the different stores and restaurants and I also really miss having a good wifi connection at home.
Anyways, nice pictures and post!

id i were to choose, i would prefer living in a rural place where evrything i can see is green. Despite of the sphisticated lifestyle in urban places, rural places give me some sort of peace aside from breathing in fresh air instead of dust.
