There are plenty of monuments on the streets of Berlin

to make sure residents and visitors alike

remember its difficult 20th century history.

I've seen most of the memorials many countless times

as a Berliner, as a tour guide here,

but they still are, some of them are really haunting,

especially when it comes to divided city to the wall

or to the time of the National Socialist period.

Coming up, hear how Berlin remembers its past.

An American tells us what she likes most about her new home in the Himalayas.

I miss just the peace of Bhutan and walking everywhere and how quirky it is and just a very

individualized little place.

And guides from Istanbul describe what kind of comfort foods the street vendors are selling in Turkey.

A slice of cheese, a tomato, and a scimit with a glass of tea is the perfect snack.

See what you can find on the streets of Berlin, Istanbul and even Tim Pooh in the hour ahead.

It's Travel with Rick Steves.

Hey, Rick Steves here. In 1978, I was a 23-year-old piano teacher dreaming of the fabled hippie trail from Istanbul to Kathmandu.

With my buddy Jean, we booked the tickets, packed our rucksacks, and set out on the

adventure of a lifetime.

My new book, On the Hippie Trail, features my 60,000-word journal and vivid photos of my

coming-of-age trip.

Squeeze into rickshaws, sail the sacred Ganges, and look into the eyes of the Virgin Goddess
