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 […]

Comfort food – Polish Pierogi and Jamie Olivers new cookbook

November 23, 2014 by nadel&gabel

“Comfort food” – how could I have walked by a cook book having these words on its front (actually it was the German title)? The new book of Jamie Oliver focuses on food as balm for your soul, food that makes you feel happy and – comfortable! Food that feeds not only your stomach, but your soul as well. I read the introducing words and was sure that this book was my cup of tea – I flipped through the […]

Turné i södra Sverige III – Sea, islands and wind

September 16, 2014 by nadel&gabel

This was the view that welcomed us in Skärhamn – a view that I just couldn’t get enough of. So, before the daily routine has absorbed me again, here finally is the last part of my summer travel retrospective. Additionally I’ve dedicated a pinterest board to our travelling through Sweden with our favourite places to stay, eat, visit plus some other inspiration. For our stay at the west coast of Sweden we had rented one of the studios of the […]

Turné i södra Sverige I – Swedish city life in Stockholm and Uppsala

August 30, 2014 by nadel&gabel

After some silence that moved into this place during the last weeks, I am back again … with some (first) pictures from our “turné i södra Sverige” (tour in South Sweden). Our trip started and ended in a city – starting point was Stockholm, final destination Uppsala … this blog post is dedicated to these two swedish cities. (Although we’ve been to the west coast as well we skipped Gothenburg, but I am sure this city is worth a visit, […]

South Tyrol III: Mediterranean gardens, thermal water and fine dining in Meran

May 7, 2014 by nadel&gabel

Apple of discord and melting pot – central and on the periphery: South Tyrol has always be all of it – when it comes to politics, geography, language or the broad field of culture. And no matter if the different influences have melted, coexist or are in conflict – it’s a rich, vivid, in-tense region. The picture above may be symptomatic for this: a perfect espresso next to a slice of Apfelstrudel – and it’s a perfect match! In the […]

South Tyrol II: Ottmanngut – An elegant Belle Époque oasis in Meran

May 1, 2014 by nadel&gabel

Imagine a stunning panorama view on palms, vineyards and snow covered mountains – all at once, imagine a magical garden full of citrus fruit trees, herbs and flowers, imagine a calm and elegant villa that breathes history, imagine tasteful and and artful food, imagine thoughtful and caring people … just a dream? No, all of this can be found in the recently reopenend Ottmanngut in Meran, where we’ve been lucky to stay during our spring break in South Tyrol. This […]

Winding paths through Wales III: Coal, books and heath covered mountains

September 16, 2013 by nadel&gabel

So, here it is: the third and final part of our journey through Wales. Although we tried to avoid sitting to much in the car on our trip, we still spend quite a time on the roads. Therefore today I’m starting with some road impressions: streets, signs, obstacles, familiar things, cause, After spending great days on the west and south coast of Wales we finally reached the capital: Cardiff. What to say about Cardiff? It’s difficult … it isn’t the […]
