Today I have made my latest fav. bread: Kellerbier Brot with apricots. Personally I would have it with Roquefort, but a salty butter will do too. The beer I used is a trade with St. Georgen Bräu in Bavarian Buttenheim. The flour is a canadian Manitoba flour, grinded at the KunstMühle in München. The salt is a sea salt from … Read More
Lunch Break
In between store scouting and meetings I made sure to get time for Lunch. I brough my own to the Spanish Royal Riding school in Vienna. ———————– But seriously, I would have loved to do a series of pictures of all the young girl practically hanging over the stone wall to the horse show. The excited glow in their eyes … Read More
Early Birds
I am not sure if I feel very young or very old when I wake up at a time when the kitchen maid didn’t even arrive to prepare the breakfast at my hotel. I remember just a few years ago I was rather the guest that always asked for “let check-out” and “late Breakfast”. But these days are far gone … Read More
WIEN, the first Impression

To be honest, I have not been so excited about a city trip in a very long time (and believe me, I am always looking forward to traveling…). But there was something about my picture of Vienna that was very attracting. A little bit the … Read More

What I need really urgently is a personal, old-fashioned hotel or pension with class. Do you know of anything? Just nothing modern, when … Read More

This is way and beyond and back to being charming. When I go for a night shower tonight my candle is matching the hotel towel. And Bedsheets. And and and. And by coincidence my toothbrush. ———————— Thank you Nicki for trading your book with me! I especially like how personal it is!
The Breakfast
You might have noticed by now that to me Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I could starve all day but if I do not get my breakfast I am screwed. So, I tend to pick hotels after their ability to make a proper breakfast. At Rösler haus in Fischbachau I experienced the most overwhelming breakfast of … Read More
The Ladies with Style
I am not sure where to start and I am sure I will not find words that would justify how I feel for this place. Therefore I will keep it short and post you pictures from a heaven on earth. Because heavenly, that is what this place feels like to me. Christine Schmitt and her daughter Amely are running their … Read More
I am excited already.
Especially about the Kompotts. They are the best in this world. My Breakfast tomorrow. I will tell you more!
