On this sunny Sunday I am going to do some sightseeing in León. León is a bigger city, but not so big, that it looks like all the others with all the same shops. I can’t find a Starbucks, for…
[Unpaid Advertising] The restaurant L’union in León, Spain is in Calle Flórez de Lemos Nº 3 in León. I didn’t like the interior much. The pictures on the wall are commercial pictures, that don’t really fit into their frames and to the room.…
My journey is finally starting and the preparations of the last weeks go into action. My day started very early with the alarm clock ringing at three o’clock. Half an hour later, I left home with my backpack on and…

Since we had to abort our last trip due to endless rainfall and still had a couple of days off of work left, Marten from einfach raus… and I went on a two-day hike. The trail was supposed to be…
Since the season started it has been almost 4 weeks now and the first plants can be seen. Some plants I can already recognize what they are gonna be, when they are grown up. By now I sew carrots, parsnips,…
As you have already seen in the first part of my South Palatinate trip, how beautiful the landscape is down there. We loved to hike there some more days and kilometers but the rainy days wouldn’t end and since it…

It is finally here! The season of GartenLust 2016 has begun. In Germany there are more and more people who rent fields from farmers or use green spaces in the city for urban gardening projects. It is kind of a…
