In episode one Joanna sets out to discover the secret to the Parisian's effortlessly cool exterior and passionate belief in freedom and individuality. She takes a hot-air balloon ride, visits the fire-damaged Notre-Dame, meets heiress Daphne Guinness, buys a vintage Chanel suit, and meets Ibrahim, refugee turned inner-city beekeeper.

In episode three Joanna's Berlin tour begins at The Festival of Lights which transforms the city's most famous landmarks using the clever art of luministic projections. The next day Joanna decides there's no better way to see the landmarks than with The Curves - Berlin's all-female motorcycle club. Joanna heads to Spandau meeting Jack Hunter, the mayor from Old Texas Town, a replica of a western town. Joanna then trades in the cowboy hat for far more glamourous hats belonging to Frau Hat – the hat lady of Berlin. Joanna explores the collection that truly encapsulates Berlin's free- spirited rebellious nature.
