Deutschland

europe's most populous country and largest economy. I visited Berlin, Hamburg and Munich in 2018 and 2020. This is one of my favourite countries so I hope to return soon.

Midcentral Europe

Germany is part of Midcentral Europe — a region known for the Alps, foods like bratwurst, schnitzel and Dutch cheese; predominantly Christian traditions, historic cities like Vienna, Berlin and Amsterdam, and great beer.

Munich

My favourite German city — though Hamburg is a close second! No offense to Berlin, but I was already tired of clubbing by the time I got there.

Tastes of the World

My thoughts on German food.

The Illusion of Time

The opening scene from a great series. I love the rich, warm voice of this old-school, tinkering scientist.

The Runner-Up

My Eurovision 2024 2nd choice goes to the rather ironically titled, "Always On the Run," by Germany's pudgy contender, ISAAK.
