Lately, agencies from every line of business have been coming, and of course you've got your basic normal tourists as well. The tourism and economic authorities are especially eager to pay their respects to these latter groups. They become directors of their own version of St.-Pauli movies, shown to their customers on foot and in the head. Andrea Svajger is such a Kurschatten . Spielbudenplatz , the street parallel to the Reeperbahn , is visible through the window.
Tourists stroll the streets alongside natives.
After eight, the everyday dirt takes a turn for the wicked. The hookers come out to start plying their trade on the street. For sociology and economics student Andrea Svajger, being a tour guide is both a job and a mission. Like her other Kurschatten colleagues, she lives right around the corner. Today, her customers are five women, all thirty-something's.
