Aka. "Destination Anywhere", "The Boy and Girl from County Bavaria"... After a very intense year in Würzburg (Germany), I'm back in Salamanca. I probably won't have that many experiences to write, but there's always an excuse to post a new entry!

I'm back! Well, in the end the writing marathon hasn't worked the way I expected... but before the weekend is over, I'd like to leave something else from me here.

The inhabitants of every country tend to complain that tourists merely visit the biggest and most popular cities. No-one cares about small villages, which can often be much more interesting than cities... Well, I decided to follow this piece of advice and, apart from beautiful Bamberg I've been to two more German villages in the past weeks.

Probably there's not much to say about them. Both of them are engaged in wine production and they are respectively located close to two of Germany's most important rivers: the Main and the Rhine. The nicest things to do there are roaming their cute, romantic streets, while looking at their old buildings or sitting in one of their numerous inns or wine taverns. That's why there might not be much to say about them... but there are certainly things to show.

Wineyards in the Rhine area

Hana (Czec Republic) and Pirjo (Finland) by the Main

Main street of Sommerhausen (Main)

More of the main street of Sommerhausen

Anniina (Finland) and Kristiina (Estonia) in a cute wine tavern

One of the specialties from Sommerhausen - vanilla ice-cream with biscuits, whipped cream and rose jam... delicious!

And last but not least, a street of a village in the Rhine area. Apparently, the plans for the church were stolen from some Middle East country.
