Berlin Quote by Raf Simons

“Berlin is in a state of transition. There are lots of people who don't stay here. They pass through. They might not 'clean up,' but they mature. It is a city where people spend a significant time in their lives, and then they move on.” quote by Raf Simons — Download Open image
