Hiking Hoher Kranzberg, Mittenwald, Germany

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”

The European Shwits are Back!

Fun fact. We’ve technically been in this new apartment in Germany for roughly two months, and it was only yesterday that we figured out how to register and pay for electricity. 🤦‍♀️ Good news, we can backdate it. 😆 I say technically back in Germany because we arrived from Ecuador and almost immediately left forContinue reading “The European Shwits are Back!”

Munich and Prague: A Mini-European Adventure

Yep, you read that correctly! I’m so behind on the blog. I mean, I know I don’t need to justify this to my ten regular readers, but editing as a job really takes away the desire to get back on the computer after work. Fun fact, we’ve lived in Ecuador for a year! Actually, itContinue reading “Munich and Prague: A Mini-European Adventure”

I’m not entirely sure, but I can generally feel it coming on, and the more I try to make the situation less awkward, well,Continue reading “Munich’s Hirschgarten: A ‘How-To’”

Kranzhorn Mountain Hike, Germany (& Austria!)

We may not get to *actually* travel much this year, but I can at least say I’ve been to Austria twice! ANNDDD technically I’ve walked across the border, so if that’s not an adventure then I don’t know what is. We’re pretty lucky to have two friends from Groningen also living in the Munich area,Continue reading “Kranzhorn Mountain Hike, Germany (& Austria!)”

Germany: Three Month Impressions + August Joy Report

It’s hard to believe that we’ve been in Munich for three months. Even harder to believe that Shane still isn’t working, but that’s a post for another day (I don’t have nice things to say, and we need the good karma). A month into our German expat adventure, I wrote about my (our) first impressions.Continue reading “Germany: Three Month Impressions + August Joy Report”
