Sunday morning in late autumn. A look out the window—wow, the sun is announcing itself on the horizon. Unbelievable! This looks like the perfect day for a cozy hike in the Harz Mountains, and maybe—just maybe—it will be rounded off with a sauna session or two 🙂 Wildcat Trail vs. Therapeutic Climate Walk Originally, the plan for this Sunday was
Hell yes, the Drecksclub is back—and this time it’s stopping by for two days at Circus Dobbelino on Schefflerstraße in Braunschweig. And yes, both the characters and the format itself have become cult classics by now—and they have been for twelve years! At least I don’t know a single person who’s visited the “Moor” for the first time and didn’t
There is still a wonderful and entertaining exhibition to see in the small town of Schöppenstedt until December 15, 2025: Frank Kunert’s Wonderland. I admit that I had no prior connection with the artist. But that changed—at the latest—this past Sunday. This light-hearted exhibition, infused throughout with dark humor, is absolutely worth a visit! We genuinely laughed out loud at
Niklausi is at the door, a special day in the Christmas season that deserves a special event. But what lovely thing should we do on this day? I imagine there must be some interesting offers in the Harz. A corresponding internet search, however, is initially disappointing. To my surprise, the number of events is quite limited, and most of them
A girls’ weekend in the Harz Mountains for my birthday — that was the plan this year. We set off on Saturday in the rain. First, I take the bus to Magdeburg. I even arrive there almost on time, where my friend is already waiting for me. We continue by car, taking the highway and then country roads to Güntersberge.
Maybe these are the last sunny and reasonably warm autumn days we’re experiencing right now. Before the gray and dark winter sets in, we’re taking advantage of the day for a hike in the Leinebergland. This time, our destination is the Lippold’s Cave. Even the winding drive to our starting point in Gerzen is an experience in itself. The hilly
The Aosta Valley The Aosta Valley, located in the northwest of Italy, is certainly one of the country’s lesser-known regions. On the one hand, this is quite undeserved — it is a superb area for hiking. On the other hand, this relative obscurity is a blessing: this beautiful corner of the world is not overcrowded. The Aosta Valley is surrounded
Is there a right to hope? And if so, could it be legally enforced? Last Friday (November 26), a new exhibition opened at the Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg. Its title: “Utopia – The Right to Hope.” And it was precisely this subtitle — the right to hope — that both puzzled and intrigued me. A quick internet search didn’t really help. One
Once again, the Deister showed us that you don’t have to travel far to experience a real adventure. On a golden autumn day, we set off in Nienstedt am Deister – a small village that feels like a gateway into this wooded hill range. The First Climb – A Wake-Up Call Barely ten minutes into the hike, our legs were
Georgia has a lot to offer culturally.Unfortunately, I can only show a small selection here. Since the trip was essentially limited to the capital Tbilisi and the western part of the country (Svaneti), I cannot make any statements about the other regions. However, I believe that even these few glimpses are enough to see how beautiful the country is. Churches,
