Being born in and living my whole life in Hamburg, I really want to get out of here for several reasons, but your article made me appriciate my home town city a little more again.
The city itself I guess really is one of the most beautiful cities in Germany to visit, but for living.. I wish there was more to do, fun places and more friendly open-hearted people. Hamburg is very rainy and cold and so are the people.
But for tourists I guess lovely to visit. You should join our next Meetup:)
