Neutral At first, we were naturally confronted with driving on the left, which was quite a challenge. But after a short adjustment period, we also got used to the special rules of the roundabout. Once you understand the rules, you find them much better than in Germany. The architecture of the houses is completely different from Germany, very simple. Even the relatively new houses often look run-down. At first, we were surprised to see metal supports sticking out of the tops o

After a very relaxing second day with a delicious breakfast at a local taverna, followed by a day at the beach snorkeling and reading, today, on the third day, we're going on a long hike through the... AVAKAS GORGE Fortified by a delicious warm baguette with various toppings and a very tasty omelet from Hari's Restaurant – a cool location with friendly service – we approached the gorge via a detour due to roadworks. We drove as far as our little car (without four-wheel drive)

Cyprus is also on our shortlist. It's supposed to have a similar climate to Mallorca, the scenery is beautiful, and the locals are friendly and laid-back. If we were to consider moving there permanently, we'd have the advantage of only needing to be there for 60 days a year, leaving us plenty of time to explore the world elsewhere. We're really excited and will keep you updated. Day one, The journey Kerstin, of course, had packed everything perfectly, as always. We're each al

That was our first step, because it was very important to us that our children heard it first and foremost from us. We called our son and told him that we urgently needed to talk to him. Said and done. We then met with him and his wife, and the first thing he said was: "Either you renovate, or you're leaving." He k

The starting point for our world trip?? Dubai A fascinating country! The first step into our new life. Great anticipation is building, and the planning for this amazing trip begins. Flights and hotels are searched for and booked immediately without hesitation. (Without checking where the hotel is, but more on that later.) Of course, we wanted to experience as much as possible. There are so many sights and so much to explore that it's really hard to decide. We watched a lot of

Our first big trip outside of Europe took us to Dubai for various reasons. Kerstin will surely report on it. We noticed the following contrasts on site, which we will examine in the individual sections: Expensive - Cheap Rich - Poor Hot - Cold Modern - Traditional Big City - Deserted Area Security - Surveillance Clean - … Dubai is often viewed disparagingly by our acquaintances as a synthetically constructed city with a glossy, high-gloss appearance. We were there, albeit on
