Chatelain for a weekend – A very special accomodation

June 18, 2015 by nadel&gabel

I was browsing already too long through pages of tasteless hotels, guesthouses and holiday homes: Either they were of the category “frumpy and slightly tacky – stuck in the 70s” or of the category “tried to be modern – reached characterless”… … And then I found this place: Schloss Hofstetten. And it was clear from the very first moment that I’ve found IT! Although I don’t know anymore on which winding paths of search I discovered. But if you can only […]

Natural forces – In the Altmühl and Danube Valley

June 8, 2015 by nadel&gabel

When we planned our weekend off, we hoped for good weather. What we didn’t expect were what we got: Summer showed its full power for the first time this year – with tropical temperatures in the middle of Bavaria, or to be precise and not offend anyone: Franconia. Already when we came closer to Eichstätt, one of the bigger cities in the otherwise rural area of the Altmühltal (Altmühl Valley), we could see houses decorated with birch twigs, flags and […]

Turné i södra Sverige II – Lakes, forests and the Göta Canal

September 7, 2014 by nadel&gabel

After some swedish culinary impressions here’s the next chapter of our foto travel journal: The first stop we made after we got our rental car in Stockholm (No Volvo! Big dissapointment for his part!) was at the biggest IKEA in the world. Why? – Let me go farther back… There are a few things that are good to know, when you decide to travel to Sweden, that we learned sooner or later: 1. Tourism in Sweden is mainly directed to […]

Winding paths through Wales II: Cliffs, dunes and marshes

September 9, 2013 by nadel&gabel

Are you ready? Here’s the next chapter in our foto travel journal: After we left the mountainous north of Wales – although living near the Alps makes the term “mountain” feel a bit exaggerated – we followed for a few days mainly the coast in its different varieties: Aberdovey with it’s long white sand beach and high dunes was one of the classic british seaside resorts we visited. Compared to buzzling Aberysthwyth it’s pleasantly relaxed. No merry-go-round, no donkey rides […]

Winding paths through Wales I: Castles, mountains, lakes and slate

September 2, 2013 by nadel&gabel

Winding paths brought us to our final travel destination this summer – and winding (often very narrow) paths led us through this beautiful country with stunning and so diverse scenery. Words can’t fully describe this, so I will mainly let the pictures speak to give you an impression and add some information about the location, our stays, places worth to visit. I tried really hard to choose the best of my photographs for you … but I had to choose […]
