28-year-old KATAZUME Aki is a freelance photographer who immigrated to Berlin, despite having no dreams or ambitions. Losing her home in a fire, she was forced to choose her next home and chose Germany because her favorite camera lens is from that country. As Aki meets people from Germany and her roommates who are full of dreams and come from different situations, the story talks about the lifestyle, customs and food in Germany and nearby countries. It’s a vividly written story of Aki’s experiences.
