Are you one of those people who like to travel? I myself love exploring new cities, experiencing culture and discovering a foreign place with all my senses. I rarely think about the fact that the beautiful city I live in could be just as much a place of longing for other people as Paris, New York or Cape Town are for me.
Countless tourists are once again being drawn to Munich this summer. Many of them travel by train, with Interrail tickets that allow multiple rail journeys through 33 different countries for comparatively little money. Among them are many young people, often from distant countries, who make a short stop in the Bavarian state capital on their long European tours. What is it that you expect when you set Munich as your travel destination? Were they attracted by the European Championships, did they take the bait from hit fisherman Helene or is it something completely different?
During their tour of discovery, five young people took the time to talk to me about exactly these questions, to explain their expectations and to describe their impressions (SZ Plus). Everyone agrees on one thing: Munich definitely has more to offer than beer and lederhosen – and that’s a good thing!
