After the trip to Italy, Dietrich Bonhoeffer returned home and set to work in earnest on his studies in Berlin. Not only was he busy, however, with his tasks at the university; he also partcipated completely in what Berlin had to offer: concerts, theaters, and museums.
Besides that, he had an active life at home with many siblings and friends. They went on trips, arranged parties, and often went to dances.
His mother always had good ideas for these occassions, and even years later one heard from the participants how much they enjoyed these festivities
