About me

About me
When I'm not slaving away at my corporate desk job, I'm usually out and about taking in the city. I spend a lot of time taking trips around Europe in my mini camper and cooking new recipes.

Why Frankfurt
Frankfurt offers everything you would look for from a large city, just on a smaller scale. It's a city I continue to explore and is constantly changing. I never have a problem getting a table at most restaurants, and it's rather affordable compared to the rest of the big banking cities. It's surrounded by a green belt of nature and parks, and is the launching pad for most of my adventures around Europe!

Fahrgasse Street Frankfurt

Fahrgasse Street – A street of rotating exhibitions

"Fahrgasse Street" is one of my favorite streets in old Frankfurt. It's full of art galleries where you'll rarely see the same art installation...

Ginnheimer Wirtshaus – Great Frankfurt beer garden

"Ginnheimer Wirtshaus" is my favorite beer garden in Frankfurt. We usually drop by for their homemade Helles beer & Flammkuchen while watching the sun set.

Normal Kneipe Frankfurt

Normal Kneipe – Another elusive craft beer bar

"Normal Kneipe" in Frankfurt has an old-school feel. This bar feels like a distant cousin of the classic German Pilsstube but with younger patrons in mind.

Erdnüsschen Frankfurt

Erdnüsschen – Sachsenhausen's best dive

"Erdnüsschen" in Frankfurt is a bar w/ an eclectic decor that hums in a yellow-orange glow. I wouldn't be surprised if nothing's changed here in 40 years.
