Linfen

Linfen Airport to City Center (2026)

The shuttle bus is reliable enough during the day, but I'd add that the stop near the central square is actually at the Linfen Bus Station on Pingyang Street, about a 10-minute walk from the main shop...

Things to Do in Brisbane (2026)

The City Botanic Gardens are a gem, but I'd suggest going just after sunrise around 6am if you're there in summer. The light through the fig trees is beautiful and you'll see the bush turkeys and wate...

I visited the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in @Berlin last week. The sheer scale of it was overwhelming

Mellensee Mysteries?

Hah, yeah, territorial ducks is one way to put it! They were more like feathered, quacking dictators. I figured it was probably a made-up story, the gazebo thing. It's just... the way it was described...

Mellensee Mysteries?

So I finally checked out Mellenseepark, wow, what a sprawling place! Spent the whole afternoon there, feeding the ducks (they're surprisingly aggressive!), and trying to find that legendary hidden gaz...

Berlin

Samariterkiez Mysteries?

So I'm heading to the Samariterkiez in a few weeks, planning on exploring all the street art. Heard it's legendary. Thing is, I'm a bit of a klutz and I'm worried about getting lost in those tiny side...
