One of the advantages of living in Berlin, at least for the summer, is the fact that you walk a lot. Even though public transportation is excellent and you don't need a car, walking on the wide sidewalks is so pleasant in the mild weather. With my iPhone's “Health” app tracking my steps, I was able to compare how much walking I do in Berlin versus Tel Aviv and Los Angeles (where I drive). Here is a weekly average: (Based on a random sample – we'll see how this changes now that I got a bike!)
Berlin: 104,454 steps
Tel Aviv: 47,389 steps
Los Angeles: 34,638
