    Travelling internationally right now is difficult, and not something I am personally comfortable with yet. Ideally, we would have made this holiday a trip back home, but the UK is currently drowning in a sea of messy Brexit talks, a highly concerning rise in coronavirus cases (recording 6,873 new cases…

    Search for the best places to visit in Germany and Rothenburg ob der Tauber will certainly be on the list. For good reason, too. Its medieval history, cobblestone streets and colourful, half-timbered houses are enough to draw any tourist to this beautiful town. It is truly beautiful. I have found…

    Some would say it is pointless visiting a German town/city on a Bank Holiday or a Sunday, but for us it is perfect.  Fewer shops open means fewer people and a much calmer experience walking around the city.  We catch the train up for a mere €36, and the train…

Things I got to talk about in my @laliaberlin onli Things I got to talk about in my @laliaberlin online German course:

✨ The increased use of English in Germany and whether it's a good or a bad thing.
✨ The differences between older and younger generations.
✨ Reasons to be mad at your neighbours and how to express your dislike for their activities. (EIN SEHR WICHTIGES THEMA FÜR DIE DEUTSCHE INTEGRATION!!)
