City Sights of Berlin:
Halloween event 2021
These are the jobs that I had to do and the rewards that I received. Don't know if it's different for you?
Kathmandu city questions
These are not the City Sights (for the City Sights of Kathmandu, go here), but just the questions that pop up in the streets. As they are so hard to remember to me (even to read those long words in the questions took most of the 20 seconds), I decided to make a list (far from complete).
Update: I just heard from somebody who started this year (2021), that she had none of these questions, only general questions about the world. About flags and pasta, not difficult at all. It's different for some people.
