(Deutsch) Corona-Tagebuch: Der Wolfi geht um!
In the Oderwald they say: “Do not turn around, the wolf walks abroad!” Otherwise, the joint community is peaceful, however within the forest you have to be beware of the Lupus upon hiking or jogging according to warning signs attached to some trees. In case you are faced with on of those fierce animals you should not run away but

Corona diary: On tour with Pink Panther
On my jogging-round I have seen him many times. No, it’s not George Clooney, it is the Pink Panther, painted on a wall. It is a graffiti on the Brunswick fromer track bed. I used to watch Pink Panther cartoons as a kid and I loved it, the Panther and its comrades. Well, I take a picture of the graffiti

Corona diary: Coach enterprises at the end of their rope
We are still in the middle of a crisis nobody could have anticipated in its degree. But, after two months of a business lockdown owners start to get nervous. Their future is uncertain and some of them might have reched the end of their rope already. I could witness an impact of these consequences myself yesterday in Hannover when I

(Deutsch) Corona-Tagebuch: Nutbush City Limits in Helmstedt
Well, I always knew how Anna Mae Bullock, aka Tina Turner, must have felt within the Nutbush City Limits. Come to Helmstedt and see it for yourself. Oh boy, I will never forget this: the day when I saw the Tina Turner poster on the Schuhstraße. It was attached to a shop-window and well there was somebody called Tina, just

Corona diary: Back to the Palaeolithic with Schöningen’s lances
There is no doubt about it, the ongoing Corona-Crisis is a pain in the neck. It limits my mobility. But there are also positive aspects to it. I begin to move in local recreation areas and discover new things in well-known places from the past. And that is meant in a litterally sense because this sunday we go back in

(Deutsch) Corona-Tagebuch: Randwanderung mit Gottes Segen
Nothing is wrong with a bit of fun, especially if it happens with God’s blessing. This weekend I am not on a hiking trip it is mountain biking. I start on friday with a tour from Brunsweick via Wolfenbüttel, Apelnstedt und Sickte, returning from there through the forest to Brunswick. On saturday an evening tour leads me to the old

Corona-diary: The long way through the nature preserve Elm-Lappwald
Today getting up was not easy at all. Waking up I notice that I am kind of aching all over – a little bit. Yesterday’s long-distance hike across the nature preserve Elm-Lappwald is taking its toll: we were out and about for 6.5 hours. According to the tour descriptions (I merged two trails) the two loop hikes should have summed
