… is a bit of a mystery to me. In overture I would like to stress that I am not testing beer while alone with the kids. No, this beer has been waiting for my review for about a week now. And it is it`s due time. Maisel`s Weisse, brewed in Bayreuth, is probably the […]
When she is gone…
we get gloomy weather and chickenpox (windpocken)! Paula had to go to Berlin for a couple of days to a Humboldt network meeting. I thought these couple of days alone with the kids in a new town will go by smoothly, alas I was wrong. All the plans I had for our first week in […]
The Sacrifices We Make / Posledice naših
When I was going through my blog today, I noticed that our adventure reads kind of romantic. Like something out of an adventure novel, but less interesting (otherwise somebody would have wrote a novel like our lives already – and even then it probably would not be a bestseller). Well the truth is sometimes less romantic, […]
Gotta love Spring / Obožujem pomlad
While driving from Bayreuth to Međimurje (in Croatia), Paula sleeping in the car, I noticed something I was oblivious of until that moment. Perhaps because of all the things we had to do and all the worries, I actually had not really noticed it was spring. The nature coming to life in its full blossom. Beautiful. […]
Manns Brau – Men`s Brew that will appeal
Our first time in Bayreuth I accidentally stumbled upon a brewery very near to our home. It is called Manns Brau (Men`s Brewery). It caught my eye because of all the people that were eating and drinking outside of this brewery. And most of those people were workers, dressed in blue working clothes. When I […]
First Times – Prvič-ki :)
Although there is nothing I would rather do than to talk about nostalgia and how we miss home, our kids and our friends, it is best to focus on positive things. Just so I do not wallow in self pitty. And there were quite a few of positive thing, little conquests. I call them FIRSTS. […]
Saying goodbyes! – Poslavljanje
Saying goodbye is not just hugging your friends and shedding a tear. It is about doing things for the very last time. Hugging a friend or members of my family is a sad but sort of a pleasantly sad feeling. Doing a thing for the last time is just sad and fills you up with […]
Master of Law. F..k yeah – Magister prav
I did it. After a measly, neglectable 7 years, I managed to successfully defend my masters’ degree. Today is a good day. Although, didn`t it take Odysseus less time to get home to Ithaca? Unfortunately, my Odyssey of the long journey towards educational brilliance won`t be eternalized in any epic story. Maybe there will be […]
First impressions / Prvi občutki
As I wrote in the First beer post, Paula and I went to Bayreuth last week. We left on Sunday and stayed until Monday at Paula´s friend house in Coburg (a small city that is one hour drive away from Bayreuth). This was the only way we could make our 10 o´clock appointment on Monday […]
Beauty
Another beer entry. For all who think: “This guy is an alcoholic!” I have just one thing to say – tasting beer is important work of cultural significance. You don´t believe me?! I have proof: You see?! It is a Franconian culture thing. Important from the point of view of homeland (heimat), tradition (well, that […]
