Prince Hermann von Pückler-Muskau was a German nobleman, author, bon vivant, world traveller and garden designer. His interest in gardens and landscape design was aroused as a young man.
Due to the global pandemic, we have unfortunately not been able to travel as much as we would like to lately. Hotels are closed, museums and castles are not open to visitors; all of this takes away the fun and joy of travelling.
As I had already written last week we're not travelling lots at the moment, because of the COVID-19-Pandemic. Instead, we decided to get to know our new home a little better. Currently, we're living in the north-west of Bavaria in a region called Franconia. Franconia itself is split into three districts: Lower Franconia, Middle Franconia and Upper Franconia.
Because of the ongoing pandemic, we have not really been away much lately. We've really stuck to the rules and not left our “block” for about two months. Now that we can finally leave our homes again we wanted to see some places in the region to a) learn more about our new home and b) not go somewhere too dangerous to not bring the virus back home.
Hello and welcome to the new Places We Have Been Towebsite. In times like these, where we are not able to travel we might need some reminders of how beautiful this world is and what it has on offer for us.
