I don’t know about spring anywhere else, but spring in Munich has been crazy. We’ve had snow, beautiful 22 C° (72 F°) days, hail, rain, and everything in between. Luckily, we had some nice weather over Easter weekend, so we set off for the mountains for the first time since we’ve been back! Mittenwald isContinue reading “Hiking Hoher Kranzberg, Mittenwald, Germany”

Riederstein Hike: Tegernsee, Germany
I know, I know. You’re probably thinking “what-the-damn-hell!?” ’cause we got out of the city, baby!! This past Sunday was G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S and our first true summer-feeling day. When we met up with our friend, Theresa, back in March we talked about going for a hike when the weather finally turned. So, when a beautiful sunnyContinue reading “Riederstein Hike: Tegernsee, Germany”

There was a time, shortly after we moved to Munich, where I genuinely (and naively) thought that we jussst might get to take a weekend trip for our anniversary. But, ya know, life happens.

We’re pretty lucky to have two friends from Groningen also living in the Munich area,Continue reading “Kranzhorn Mountain Hike, Germany (& Austria!)”
Hiking in Ehrwald, Austria
If I could insert googly-eyes, I’d do it. I know we’ve only been in Munich for 2 months, but I’ve been dying to get to the mountains. So, when a soon-to-be-whenever-Germany-lets-Shane-finally-work (ugh) colleague invited us to tag along on a day trip to the Alps, we jumped at the chance. So, last Friday we headedContinue reading “Hiking in Ehrwald, Austria”
Munich Guide: Olympia Park
Our trip to Olympia Park was an accident. Ok, kind of. I mean it was on ‘the list’ and we did intentionally bike there, but our original plan was to go swimming in the Isar river. That plan was foiled once we looked at the radar. So instead, we decided to check out Olympia Park,Continue reading “Munich Guide: Olympia Park”
