NEW BLOGS

I usually do a travel highlights post, but I am a bit behind on posting as we traveled so much in the second half of the year. This means I will include some trips in my highlights list, which I have not yet posted about. You can look at it as a little teaser for what’s to come on the blog in 2024. This year we were able to fit in so many destinations, and I actually still have one big upcoming trip as we are going to spend the Christmas week in Gdansk, Poland. I hope you all have the best Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Over the years I have become a self-proclaimed expert on cute villages in Germany. Germany is full with cities and villages that consist of colorful half-timbered (fachwerk) houses that are relatively undiscovered. You will mainly encouter German tourists in these villages, as foreign tourists seem to have no idea on what Germany has to offer. Whenever we travel through Germany we always try to visit a fachwerk town. In this blogpost I will highlight my favorite destinations in Germany.

From the pictures I expected Bernkastel-Kues to be the cutest town in the Mosel area and I was not disappointed when we visited this past summer. Move over Cochem, I have got a new favorite! Bernkastel is full with cute fachwerk houses, pretty fountains and is surrounded by vineyards. We had the best time in Bernkastel-Kues and in this blogpost I will tell you all about it.
