Berlin, Berlin. One city once divided in two. One communist, one not. One brightly adorned the other grey. I can still see East Berlin so clearly. The time of the Wall. Do you know the East Side Gallery? A piece of the Berlin Wall which stands in what was East Berlin. It was transformed into a gallery. This piece of Wall healed by artists joyfully witnessed the Peaceful Revolution of 1989. The Berlin Senate wanted it gone and removed several parts despite protests and petitions. It needs to stay because the history is too important to lose.

Christine Maclean moved from Scotland to West Berlin in 1979 in search of adventure. She wasn't disappointed and experienced several, the most fascinating of which was the East Side Gallery project which she managed. She worked in East Berlin at the British Embassy whilst living in West Berlin and crossed the border crossing Checkpoint Charlie every day. She has travelled extensively and lived in Canada, Romania and Greece. She now lives in her native Scotland.
