Um Die Ecke | Summer Sojourns into the Bavarian Fairytale

Originally published by Wanderous Affair Magazine of Toronto, Canada

Nestled in the storybook landscapes of Bavaria lies a verdant, toylike town rife with history and culture. Munich - or München in German - is a town unfettered by eras, where Gothic spires and Baroque steeples compete for admiration along the low-slung skyline and locals chuckle at the notion that farm-to-table is a modern trend. This overgrown village, where every historical marker is a stones-throw from the last, also happens to be my overgrown village, and the perfect spot for day trips and staycations.
