Sometimes things don’t go as planned. We’re on our way to the Wolfsburg City Museum M2K. We want to visit the exhibition “Young City in Quick Strokes: The Wolfsburg Sketches of Hans Kreuzer.” The city museum is supposed to be open today from 11 am to 6 pm – or so we thought. While I’m taking a few photos of
After all the tours I have taken in the last few years, I am always surprised that there is something new for me to discover too. Last Sunday we went to Langenstein. I couldn’t believe what there was to discover here. In addition to the cave dwellings, there is a castle and castle park, a concentration camp memorial, the Hoppelberg
This Saturday we are going to Hildesheim again. We meet at the train station, from there we go to the Gasthaus Kupferschmiede. This is where our today’s tour starts. Right at the game gate next to the restaurant we are magically captivated by the goats. The enclosure is an attraction for young families. It quickly becomes clear that the goats
On this Sunday, I had actually planned to go to the Harz mountains, but Mr. Weselsky didn’t want to go:-( So, my friends from the Harz simply came to me instead. In advance, I naturally wondered what I could offer the two experienced and spoiled hikers with a clear conscience. This consideration led me to Königslutter’s magnificent building, the Imperial
The island of La Réunion is considered a French hiking paradise in the Indian Ocean, and for good reason. “Hike till you drop” could be the motto here. With three fascinating calderas and a coastline that surrounds the island, it leaves nothing to be desired. Furthermore, La Réunion boasts the highest mountain in the Indian Ocean, Piton des Neiges. In
Champagne or sparkling water? Rain or sunshine? This year, the weather app or, more precisely, the rain radar decides where the weekend getaway is headed. With the changeable climate, it’s not easy to estimate how long the next rain gap will last. Often, the raincoat is closer than the swimsuit. So, we gather all our courage and just set off.
Summer time is garden time. The wonderful idea of an „open garden gate“ is not only offered at Braunschweig but also at Hildesheim. Such an oasis was presented last sunday by the couple Lagershausen. Lucky enough the garden visit could be combined with a marvellous hike starting at the parking lot Glashütte. Additionally the weather was also nice. After a
If it is really hot in town it is a good idea to visit the Harz Mountains. However that does not always work! We tried our luck in the mining town Altenau. Even though we are walking alongside the Okerstausee (barrier lake) and hike in the Kellwassertal the scorching heat is almost killing us. The climb up to the Ochsenberghütte
The most characteristic thing at the Algarve are the fantastic beaches and rock formations to me. Especially between Sagres and the Percorso dos Sete Vales Suspensos (the path of the seven hanging valleys) it is the erosion of the rocks that fascinates me time after time. At the cliff line I come across yellow, red and terra-cotta coloured stratums –
The beautiful Algarve is not only a paradise for beach lovers and partygoers. Nature lovers like me will also be pleased. Actually „hot“ countries like Spain, France, Italy or Portugal are rather known for ists sparse landscape. However, the Portuguese Coast surprises me. My flora-app is a big help here and is very busy. There a many for me unknown
