Hooray! Friday's daughter has time on Fridays! Already on Wednesday, she curiously chooses the suggestion "Great Disaster" (the alternative program "Murder Doesn't Expire" can, of course, wait). The clues "hot," "sooty," and "dirty" lead her to suspect a destination in the Ruhr region, and sure enough…

A bit overcast, but no rain: the hiking weather is beckoning. From the pumping station, I cross the Wupper River, reach the wooden door handle, and continue to Königsfeld. Above me, I hear the calls of a mouse-eater. In Königsfeld, I cross the country road and continue along side paths to Bransel, where…

Currently, around 50 murals by various artists are being created in Wuppertal through private initiatives. Many of them depict themes related to Pina Bausch, the famous founder of dance theater, who, despite her global prominence, always remained in Wuppertal. After her sudden death, she was buried in…

Denmark's northernmost point isn't on the famous headland where the North Sea and Baltic Sea meet, but rather about 3 km west, on Skagen North Beach. It's very wide and almost deserted. Furthermore, the sand is interspersed with stones, making barefoot walking not impossible, but somewhat uncomfortable…

As we drive through Albæk, we pass two Genbrug stores, located almost next to each other in an industrial park on the road to Skagen. The Kirkens Koshær Genbrug is large and well-stocked; again, we lament that we don't have a trailer and that we have far too little space. A ready-to-live-in oak Art Nouveau…

Sindal boasts an extraordinarily well-stocked Røde Kors boutique, where my four girls desperately search for something to wear, as their closets are gapingly empty. I take the time for a little stroll and actually find something very special: the first pandemic memorial I see. In the park opposite the…

The father, who suffers from acrophobia, shudders as he recalls a previous visit to the Bottrop Tetrahedron: his extraordinarily curious and nimble offspring scampered happily around, climbing everywhere and lovingly balancing on the railings. Moreover, he is unfortunately blessed with only two arms…
