Day: 319 Markus, intent on making sure I hit every important spot in the region, had us out early to find some local culture and history. Starting with his local farmers market, followed by a castle and the old town of Tubingen; I was exhausted by the time we were drinking coffee, eating Black Forest [...]
Day: 315 Well, I thought, I like beer, and I like flesh, so why not order something named bierfleisch? After a day of doing chores, sleeping in, napping, taking pictures and trying to plan my next Bavarian move, I had decided to treat myself to a nicer dinner.

Day: 314 I heard his alarm go off…. Damn 3:30am already. I had told my brother I would walk with him down to the train station to see him off on what I had been grooming him for all week. Solo travel. Aaron’s mission was to somehow manage to get from Salzburg, Austria, transfer trains [...]
