Germany

Ever dreamt of going where Fairy tales are made? Enchanted Castles hidden in the forest sound appealing? Well take a trip to Germany’s Moselle Valley and go off the beaten track to some of the most picturesque places in the world

Hamburg is the second largest city in Germany, but strangely overlooked by tourists who prefer hip Berlin or posh Munich. Having lived in Hamburg for several years I can recommend places that are a little more off the beaten path.

The beautiful area called Maifeld is home to one of the most magnificent and best preserved castles in Germany named Burg Eltz. Wonderfully located on Germanys most beautiful hiking trail 2013 and surrounded by pure nature, it appears to be a dreamlike fairy-tale castle.
