On our recent trip to Germany, we visited Munich for a few days and were lucky enough to meet a friend of ours who kindly volunteered to take us outside of Munich to go hiking. If you’re an outdoor enthusiast, you’ll find no shortage of activities in the areas surrounding Munich – there are mountains to…
When people think of Munich, the images that might immediately come to mind are men wearing lederhosen, the festival of Oktoberfest, and of course, sausages and beer.

Scott and I had been talking about visiting Germany together since we started dating.
