My first experience in Germany was absolutely incredible, But i’ll be honest, the first few hours were terrifying (keep in mind I was a very young 19 year old). It was my first time leaving the country, EVER, and our first stop was Berlin.
I remember stepping off the airplane, with my boyfriend Zakary and thinking, “where even am I.” The adrenline from sitting on a plane for LITERALLY hours, started to fade, and a new sense (I suppose a survival instinct) of being very VERY lost started to creep in on us.
After a long taxi ride to the hotel, we stumbled upon a nearby park. The sky was gloomy, we were jet lagged, and the weather matched the emotions we were feeling: grey and cranky.
What a combo, am I right.
After a much needed nights rest the fun had finally began!

After soaking in the vibes of each city—from Berlin’s layered history to Würzburg’s charming vineyards—we wanted to go beyond just wandering and dive a little deeper. So, we booked a few tours that really brought each place to life in unexpected ways. Here’s what we explored, learned, and loved along the way…
