What can I say—it was just great to be back here again! It had actually been quite a while since we finally managed to make it to this lake, which is actually one of our favorite places. Especially I really

Sometimes you don’t really feel like talking that much and would rather just take a step back. But even so, the questions just come pouring in, and you have no idea how to avoid them all. Well, some people

A while back, a day trip took us once again to the center of the German capital. Actually, on our visits to Berlin, we usually follow a similar route and check out the places we really enjoyed on our last

One temple, three different buildings. That’s probably the best way to sum up today’s short blog post. We’re visiting Shinshō-ji Temple in the city of Narita, very close to the airport of the same name.

source Well, that’s a good question, and as always, I’m searching for the right answer. I’m probably in the same boat as many of you who, just like me, face this recurring dilemma. And it all starts with

Today we’re seeing the same picture twice, but quite some time has passed between the photos. That’s because this is where our trip began—and, sadly, where it also came to an end. But where are we? That’s

Today’s excursion takes us very close to the German capital, Berlin—specifically to Potsdam. The capital of the state of Brandenburg lies right next to Berlin’s city limits and is surrounded by many lakes,

Irgendwie bin ich heute an diesem Sonntag bei einem ganz alten Schlager hängergeblieben, den ich selber eigentlich nie gehört habe. Klar kenne ich den Namen und dne Refrain, aber das war schon alles. Aber

Ein Ausflug hatte uns vor einiger Zeit nach Potsdam geführt, in die alte Residenzstadt gleich neben der großen Metropole Berlin. Es war zwar mein zweiter Ausflug nach Potsdam, aber so richtig kenne ich

Nun ja, dass ist eine gute Frage, auf die ich wie immer die richtige Antwort suche. Wahrscheinlich geht es mir dabei wie vielen von euch, die genau wie ich vor diesem immer wieder auftauchenden Dilemma

On my way to my next job, I took one of my usual detours, which leads me through a small range of green hills. There, I often stop at a pond, where I linger and let my thoughts wander freely for a while.

So, where do you think we are today? At first glance, the first photo seems to hide more than it reveals, and you might find yourself wondering what exactly we’re looking at here. But if you look more

How quickly the scenery changes. It feels like—at least to me—the rice was just planted, and now already the heavy rice plants are swaying in the many fields, waiting to be harvested. What on earth has

Matcha scheint weltweit der letzte Schrei zu sein, und auch in Deutsch kann man diesem Trend nicht wirklich entkommen. Insbesondere in den Innenstädten bieten die vielen Hipsterläden die verschiedensten

After we’d worked up a bit of a sweat late last night, things have finally calmed down a bit. The faucet on the washing machine was turned off for the time being, and we thought about the quickest way

What's going on here? That's exactly the question I asked myself that evening when things suddenly got hectic around me. The day had actually been quite pleasant and quiet, and I was already on my way

Well, that’s it for! Our big trip, which had taken me back to the past once again, is unfortunately over now, and everyday life has begun. But it had been wonderful—so wonderful that we didn’t even want

Narita was fun, even though it now seems to be ages ago that we walked its hot summer streets. But time flies and there is nothing we can do to stop that. And that is why the memories of our mid-summer

Well, I guess that’s it. All good things must come to an end, and that goes for our last rip as well. I was fun, and a pleasure to be away for a while As usual, we walked along familiar paths, but we also
