What lies ahead – Free printable calendar 2018

December 17, 2017 by nadel&gabel

It’s already so close to Christmas! And as this year Christmas nearly coincides with our move, it is time for a longer break here on this blog until we have fully arrived in our new home and a new year, excited about what lies ahead. But I am not saying good bye for this break without having thanked you, my readers, for reading and commenting my posts on this blog or (increasingly) on Instagram. Since I’ve started this blog in […]

Eastward I – Leipzig and Saxon-Bohemian Switzerland

September 3, 2017 by nadel&gabel

After our last holiday trip took us to a foreign far away island, we decided that we would like to discover in our summer holiday … other foreign far away places – but this time in Germany! Truth is that even in this small country for us there are still so many ‘blind spots’ that we only have vage ideas of or not even that. „Willst du immer weiter schweifen? Sieh, das Gute liegt so nah.” (J.W. Goethe, Erinnerung) Time […]

Peace at the mountain – Hiding away in Bad Gastein

April 11, 2016 by nadel&gabel

When we had planned our stay at Bad Gastein we thought that Easter would be a good time for a little timeout. We didn’t know then how urgently we really would need a break. So our plan for our short Easter holiday in Bad Gastein was to do mainly … nothing! And beyond the seven mountains among the seven dwarves… … we found the perfect hideaway, the Hotel “Miramonte“: A former “Kurhotel” (spa hotel) build at the turn of the century, […]

High waves and steep cliffs – Costa Vicentina

September 27, 2015 by nadel&gabel

Now, in the hight of autumn, it seems weird to look at those pictures of sun and beach – unbelievable that it is only a few weeks ago! A reason more to wallow in memories… After a few days around Porto Covo we moved on, not very far, but a bit further down along Portugals west coast, towards the Algarve. At Brejão stayed at the small agriturismo Cerca do Sul that we found via the local tourism platform Casas Brancas […]

Pristine tranquillity – Costa Sudoeste Alentejano

September 20, 2015 by nadel&gabel

Soon after we crossed the river Tejo and turned away from Lisbon and towards the south of Portugal the signs of civilization became more scarce. After a short stop at the Reserva Natural do Estuário do Sado – waste wetlands at the estuary of the river Sado that are used for growing rice and produce salt in the salinas – and a small lunch at the impressing Lagoas Santo André we headed further south. Our destination for the following days […]

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 […]

Lessons – A visit to the Botanical Garden

May 6, 2015 by nadel&gabel

Im Treibhaus Mathilde Wesendonck Hochgewölbte Blätterkronen, Baldachine von Smaragd, Kinder ihr aus fernen Zonen, Saget mir, warum ihr klagt? Schweigend neiget ihr die Zweige, Malet Zeichen in die Luft, Und der Leiden stummer Zeuge, Steiget aufwärts süßer Duft. Weit in sehnendem Verlangen Breitet ihr die Arme aus, Und umschlinget wahnbefangen Öder Leere nicht’gen Graus. Wohl, ich weiß es, arme Pflanze: Ein Geschicke teilen wir, Ob umstrahlt von Licht und Glanze, Unsre Heimat ist nicht hier! Und wie froh die Sonne […]

Mind the fietsers – A city trip to Amsterdam

April 13, 2015 by nadel&gabel

It’s only a few days ago, that we came back from our little spring timeout in Amsterdam. A pleasant spring weather made it easy for us to discover and enjoy this city which is bustling and relaxed at the same time. Sometimes I find taking photographs a difficult thing to balance, especially when travelling. I want to keep memorys, impressions, but at the same time I see the risk to miss out on the experience while concentrating on taking pictures. […]

Pause and move

January 1, 2015 by nadel&gabel

Now here it is – the new year – with all its unwritten stories, plans, expectations and hopes… We started the new year the way we ended the now gone 2014 – in a slowed down and relaxed rhythm that you can truly follow only during this peculiar period “between the years”. This time the sudden – although not unexpected – onset of winter intensified this feeling of a temporary standstill. Like if nature wanted to tell us to decelerate, […]
