Start
September 13, 2023 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C
This time our travels begin at an humane time starting from Charlottenburg with the Regionalexpress to Magdeburg.
Changing in Magdeburg
September 13, 2023 in Germany ⋅ 🌧 22 °C
The changing time at Magdeburg could be shorter, but on the other hand it gives time to buy some snacks and travel products at the Rossmann and also make some photos.
Sadly the infrastructure left usRead more
Early in the morning
September 14, 2023 in Germany ⋅ 🌙 9 °C
Starting out very early today.
I have to take the ICE from Erfurt and have to take the public transport to reach the Mainstation in Frankfurt(Main).
Let's hope everything goes well and I reach myRead more
Verdammtes Mannheim
September 14, 2023 in Germany ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
Arriving in Frankfurt worked well, I probably would not have needed using the Subway, but it was an experience.
However, the next train canceled the stop in Frankfurt so I had to take the ICE toRead more
Going to Paris
September 14, 2023 in France ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
At least being late gives train conductors some motivation to go a little faster. Going 321 km/h in France with an ICE 3 Velaro was impressive.
Paris
September 14, 2023 in France ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
Because I arrived some time later in Paris, not having 4h time to change trains and stations, I scrapped my plans to go to Montmartre. This was a good idea anyway.
So I went straight to a nice veganRead more
Perpignan
September 15, 2023 in France ⋅ 🌬 28 °C
After a long day of travel I took it easy on my first day in Perpignan.
Palace of the Kings of Mallorca
September 16, 2023 in France ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C
"Nein, hier wohnt kein Jürgen Drews!" is what I imagine be a very common thing to say about this castle.
Le farfalle
September 16, 2023 in France ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C
Visiting a tropical butterfly farm and finding out if the heat is worse with moisture. Yes, a lot.
Apart from that it is always nice to watch some beautiful tropical butterflies.
Also a quick stopRead more
Carcassonne
September 17, 2023 in France ⋅ 🌬 26 °C
While it's name today mostly instills fear in the hearts of those who dread the invitation to a board game night, Carcasonne also exists as a beautiful castle city that is definitely worth aRead more
Some sights in Perpignan
September 19, 2023 in France ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C
A good day for some Sightseeing in Perpignan.
Just walking a bit through the steets having a vegan burger and look at the cathedral.
Hôtel Pams
September 19, 2023 in France ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C
One of the nicer things enabled by the consumption of tabaco is obviously the Hôtel Pams. Build with the legal drug money from selling cigarettes through the JOB company, this building is a testamentRead more
Trip to the Beach
September 21, 2023 in France ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
Made it to the beach for the first time and took a swim. Definitely warmer than the baltic sea.
Portbou
September 22, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
This is not the fastest route to Barcelona. In fact it is 4 hours compared to 90 minutes.
However: Using the regional train connections gives you the opportunity to look around Portbou, a smallRead more
Arriving in Barcelona
September 22, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C
After taking the next train and taking in a lot of the Spanish countryside, I arrived at Barcelona.
A nice hotel with a view a bit outside but in reach of everything.
Also taking my first walk inRead more
Good Morning Barcelona
September 23, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
I love the fact that they have parrots here. I also don't live here so probably I'm just not annoyed by how loud they can be.
Also Barcelona is hipster enough to have nice vegan cafés where you canRead more
Mercat de la Boqueria
September 23, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
A little bit crowded but definitly something to visit is this market hall.
Montjuïc
September 23, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Montjuïc is probably one of the best places to get a view on the city while visiting a beautiful parc. Though you have to do some climbing if you don't want to dump quite a fee in the cable car.
IRead more
La Mercé
September 23, 2023 in Spain ⋅ 🌙 21 °C
Coincidantly there was a fiesta in the city with a lot of live music and with some dancing giant puppets.
Barcelona beach
September 24, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Starting the day somewhat later today, I went to the beach to get some impressions.
Estación de Francia & Born
September 24, 2023 in Spain ⋅ 🌙 23 °C
Before I went to an awsome night out with a good friend, I walked into the Estación de Francia, an old train station with an interessting architecture.
Also I got some vegan paella.
La Wash
September 25, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C
Laundry day. While waiting for the machine to finish I went into the park and spent some time. The laundromat was named La Wash, this is funny for people speaking French.
Sagrada Familia
September 25, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Kind of a "Shut up, I was there." visit. La Sagrada Familia.
Since I did not plan this much ahead, I had no ticket and looked at it from the outside.
Still impressive with its litereal tons of tinyRead more
La Catedral
September 25, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Probably the church version of Berlin Tegel, the old cathedral still stands open, awaiting the new church in town to be finished.
Best part it, that you don't need a reservation to be impressed andRead more
