    Last day in New Jersey

    Julia

    Day 6 – around Lake Mohawk, NJ We wanted the last full day to be a relaxing day, before we are getting on four different planes to fly to Galápagos, via Houston, Texas, and Quito, Ecuador’s capital. The closeby Lake Mohawk offers a cute boardwalk and some lunch/ dinner options. After a relaxing morning that…

    Washington, D.C. – Around The Mall

    Julia

    Day 4 – from Brnachville, NJ, to Washington, D.C., and 4 km by foot through Washington, D.C. (comments in Italic by Daniel) With a lot of sightseeing stops on our list, ready to be crossed out, we got off at the Smithsonian and just wandered around a bit, after spending almost five hours in the…

  • Non-exhaustive list of fine dining (and drinking) in Hamburg

    Julia

    Years of Media Management experience have brought me an extensive knowledge of some of the best options to lunch, dine and go out for drinks  in Hamburg. The following are stylish, sometimes a bit more pricy, locations where I enjoyed being taken by good folks.   // 20up – fantastic seats by the window, overlooking…

  • Breakfast in an igloo by the Thames

    Julia

    BA972 from LHR to HAM We decided to spend the Saturday in London. Since it is fairly irrelevant from where we work on Fridays plus we can always visit our offices around the globe, we had the chance to stay for the weekend. I did a little research for a nice breakfast place in London…

    Lazy days by the sea

    Julia

    Thanks to two bank holidays in Germany we got to enjoy a little break from everyday life. I picked a retreat by the Baltic sea, which is a 1.5-hour-drive from Hamburg. Now, you might say, what is there to see and do, it’s not summer and certainly no bathing weather. The truth is, not really…

  • New Orleans flair in Miami

    Julia

    One of the coolest hidden gems in Miami is probably the New Orleans-style restaurant and bar “Lagniappe”. From the outside you wouldn’t expect such a beautiful, yet shabby place. There’s live music every night from 9:00 pm and we got there just in time to listen to it. Although the band plays inside by the…

  • Waxy in da House

    Julia

    EW7464 from HAM to LHR After a successful meeting, which was the purpose of my side trip to London, I was able to continue the acquaintance with my colleagues from the UK. It always helps to strengthen the cooperation when you get the chance to meet someone in person, I think. The whole office meets…

  • Wiesn in München – Volksfest in der Bierhauptstadt der Welt

    Wiesn in München – Volksfest in der Bierhauptstadt der Welt

    Julia

    LH2066 from MUC to HAM Letzten Samstag war ich das zweite Jahr in Folge auf dem Oktoberfest. Ihr wisst vielleicht, dass ich überhaupt kein Biertrinker bin und dass man auf dem Oktoberfest eigentlich ausschließlich Bier trinkt. Man sucht sich ein Festzelt aus und bestellt die erste Maß Bier, dann noch eine, und noch eine… Achte…

    Start the weekend right: B&B (breakfast & beer) in Düsseldorf

    Julia

    EW7060 from HAM to DUS Being in the area for leisure, for a change, means having delicious breakfast to start the day right. With a super healthy and oh-so delicious Açai bowl at a corner deli called Birdie & Co. in Düsseldorf Pempelfort I feel fit to enjoy the weekend to its fullest. And guess…

  • Frankfurt Morning Glory

    Julia

    This is one of the stunning views you get to see when staying at Frankfurt Marriott Hotel, a place which I will at times call my second home. Just started on a project in this town, my very first in my young career as a consultant, so I wonder if this place can become my…
