Look to Pompeii

Modern civilisation should always look to the ancient Roman city of Pompeii for a lesson on humility and destruction.

Naples Revisited

A recent article in The Guardian newspaper described Napes as “the city of imminent doom.” A place where cool books and tv shows are set. Agreed.

After my visit to the city in August 2021, in my opinion the Southern Italian city has an eccentric vibe. A place where everything past and present meet on the Mediterranean Sea. Walking around the city there are impressive architectural inspirations from various epochs of human history.

Never Heard of Marktbreit

Another place on the Main river, but Marktbreit wins the Picturesque Award. The romantic small town of around 3,700 sits in the middle of wine country with its old city wall and canal. I have never heard of the ancient Roman settlement until a recent quick visit on a warm German day. It was time well spent.

Marketbreit is located 136 km from Frankfurt and 30km from Wurzburg.

Wine Mixed with a Staycation

Need a place to visit over the holidays. If you happen to be in Munich or the Bavaria Region I recommend trying wine country for a relaxing Staycation. There are many charming villages and areas around the Main River.

Staycation from Berlin.

The word STAYCATION has entered the tourism vocabulary, “a vacation spent in one’s home country rather than abroad, or one spent at home and involving day trips to local attractions”, defined by the Oxford Dictionary. Travel chaos is the norm, you may or may not get there or back. Living in Berlin, there are many nearby cities and destinations worth a visit during the Easter Holiday.

Barockgarten Grosssedlitz, near Dresden the Royal Garden is worth a day trip just to fell like Catherine The Great.

Strusland, the former Hansa City on the coast is a walkers paradise with a mixture of Swedish and German Architecture.

Dessau, the distinguished Bauhaus buildings makes a statement.

Wismar, another Hansa City with its massive towers and long beaches makes the list for its haunting feel.

Other Places I recommend. Glashutte, the small town is a major timepiece manufacture center.

Weimar, the birth place of Bauhaus Movement, historic city obtains a charming intimacy.
