Memories and hints of a travelling IT professional.
It is an artists who is tightly connected to the city of Hann. Münden, Germany – even though he wasn’t born and he didn’t die there: Prof. Gustav Eberlein. Hann. Münden became his hometown after his parents moved there and the citizens are still admiring him and his works. Continue reading “Prof. Eberlein”
It is a memorial many people get close to every day without recognizing it: the Gedächtnis der Gleise (memory of the railway tracks) at the main railway station (Kulturbahnhof) of Kassel, Germany. I just discovered it by accident after using the railway station for two years twice a day.
Shortly before Easter we went to Berlin, Germany to do some sightseeing and visit the family. After some weeks of freezing cold temperatures spring was coming and brought us some sunny days. We checked-in again at the simple but good Sperlingshof at Dallgow-Döberitz and started our visit. Continue reading “Beginning of spring”
In an industrial zone of Potsdam, Germany you can find the candy factory of Katjes (in Germany well-known for gummy bears, also vegetarian ones). Here you can get up to the first floor to watch one production line and see how candy is made. Continue reading “Bonbon factory”
It was spring and the weather started to get better and more sunny. But then over night temperatures dropped and we woke up with a lot of snow in front of our hotel windows. For this day we had decided to go to the Biosphäre in Potsdam, Germany and that was a really good decision. It is a huge greenhouse with tropical plants, animals and tropical temperature.

The Trattoria Olio is a wonderful place in Dallgow-Döberitz, Germany we just found because of the fact that the restaurant we wanted to visit was closed. Getting here was a really good alternative: a modern Italian restaurant with a good menu and very friendly staff. Continue reading “Trattoria Olio”
Little Big City Berlin is a miniature world telling the history of Berlin, Germany. It is located in the basement of the Fernsehturm (entrance on the back side) and I was a bit unsure whether this is a good place to visit. That was mostly because they have a too good marketing concept which made me suspicious. Continue reading “Tear down this wall”
The Fernsehturm of Berlin, Germany is visible from nearly everywhere in the city. And if you want you can get easily by elevator into the giant ball in the sky and watch the German capital from up above. Until today I didn’t meet too many locals or foreigners that went up – but now we tried this experience. Continue reading “High above Berlin”
The restaurant Yak & Yeti is located at the Südwestkorso in Berlin, Germany. In a plain and simple atmosphere they serve good Indian and Nepalese food. That is good because in addition to the well-known Indian cuisine you have interesting Nepalese dishes. Continue reading “Yak & Yeti”
