I Break The News

 Hello dear readers, Just a little greeting from me to you. Thank you for coming back to this Blog again and again and again. We always try to keep it informative and creative around here and we appreciate each and every one of you.

                                                   Hello everyone,  First of all, I would like to say that I am deeply saddened by the recent events at the Magdeburg Christmas market in my home state of Sachsen-Anhalt. In these dark times, a Christmas market is usually one of the few places for peaceful and cozy gatherings with family and friends. So many times I have spoken so highly of the Christmas markets in Germany to those who asked me about my home country. If you have ever been, you know it is a special atmosphere.

Additionally, here is Trevor Noah 's very open and real take, on what is happening right now. He has some really insightful thoughts to share. Good that we switched notifications on so we saw this video, right after it was released. We said it before and we say it again, Trevor Noah is making a huge impact since several years now and we think with his authenticity and ability to share the truth and important facts, even within a comedic setting, he...

   Alexanderplatz - Berlin Zentrum Hello dear readers and a Happy New Year 2016 to you! May you have a year full of clarity, joy and memorable moments. As you might have noticed, I took a little break from the blog but now here I am - back again. Today I want to share a little travel adventure via plane, train and even bus, with you. In December I took my annual Christmas break and went to my hometown in East Germany. As always family time is my main priority but this time there was something else on the holiday schedule too - a 3 day trip to Berlin ! Let's just ignore the fact that I was living there for 1 year in 2006, because a few things have changed and I was able to re-visit the capital from the perspective of a tourist.  We wanted to make full use of our time in Berlin, so we had to make sure to find a place as close to the center as possible.   We found a very nice, small and inexpensive flat from which you could even see the TV to...
