Hamburg is one of my absolute favorite cities in Germany. It has such a unique atmosphere and, in my opinion, it might just be the best city in the country. I like it because it strikes the perfect balance, it’s less gritty than Berlin, cooler and more alternative than Munich, but without being too polished…
I absolutely love spending a weekend in Hamburg. Even though it doesn’t have quite as many “must-see” tourist attractions as Berlin, it’s still my favorite of all the major cities in Germany. In winter, Hamburg turns super cozy with some fantastic Christmas markets (and honestly, Christmas in Germany is always a good idea). In summer,…
I’ve spent my fair share of time in Vienna, first as a wide-eyed tourist on a magical 3-day Christmas vacation with my family, and later on countless visits to see one of my best friends who calls the city home. And as much as I love hanging out with her and discovering local gems, there’s…
Berlin is probably my number one city to visit in Germany. Honestly, if someone told me I could only pick one German city to visit for the rest of my life, I’d pick Berlin without even thinking twice. The city is absolutely packed with things to do, from iconic landmarks and world-class museums to edgy…
Christmas in Germany is honestly one of the best times of the year and I say that as a German. Even though I travel full-time, I make a real effort to come home every December because it’s just that magical. Last winter I based myself in Berlin, and I loved it. Exploring Germany in December…
Vienna is a city that feels like it belongs in two worlds at once, imperial palaces and opera houses on one side, trendy cafés and modern art spaces on the other. It’s grand without being overwhelming, cultural without being stuffy, and compact enough that exploring feels effortless. I first came here on a family Christmas…
Berlin is definitely one of the coolest cities to visit in Germany and honestly, I’d put it up there as one of the best in all of Europe if you ask me. The city has everything: fascinating history, world-class museums, amazing cafés and restaurants, some of the best thrift shops I’ve ever found, and that…
Berlin is hands down my number one city to visit in Germany. I’m not saying the other big cities aren’t great (they are), but Berlin just has the most to offer. The city is absolutely packed with things to do, whether it’s standing under the Brandenburg Gate, walking along what’s left of the Berlin Wall,…
I had two things on my “must eat” list in Vienna: Wiener schnitzel and cake. What a combo, right? Naturally, that meant heading straight for the two most famous spots, Figlmüller for schnitzel and Café Central for cake. Both are very touristy, but guess what, I’m a tourist and they were freakin delicious and have…
If you ask me, Berlin is definitely the best city to visit in Germany. Honestly, if you only had time for one German city, I’d tell you to make it Berlin every single time. It’s the capital, sure, but that’s just the start. Berlin is packed with history, layered with culture, and just full of…
