Portland culinary

At the latest in Portland every dry spell ends – that can be said with certainty. While a home-brewed "chilled blonde" or a glass of local wine are the favorites of the evening, a freshly brewed coffee or tea is welcome in the morning or afternoon.

There was a time when rain was the liquid most associated with Portland and Oregon. Taking advantage of this "liquid sunshine," residents now brew their own beer, brew fresh coffee and tea, and make inventive cocktails. In addition, the abundant rainfall helps tremendously with the cultivation of grapes, hops and barley. read more

Outback in Australia

Australia can be completely circumnavigated on Highway One or crossed from Adelaide via the center to Darwin without ever leaving the paved highway. But to experience the true outback of Australia, you should turn your back on these main routes. There are a lot of tracks and trails where the official recommendation of the police is to check out at an appropriate police station before leaving and to check back in the indicated period upon arrival. In case of problems, a search party can be dispatched in a targeted manner. read more

The brightly colored Levi’s Wonderland

25hours hotel frankfurt

Finally dressed appropriately. And without any consultation! I'm wearing a Levi's 501 and standing in the 501 hotel room. Not in just any hotel, but in the 25hours Hotel Frankfurt by Levi's.

T he hotel name says it all. The concept runs through the house like a common thread. Sometimes this thread takes the most surprising forms. For example, that of an ironing board with an iron, which is not in the room, but in front of it. While the ironing equipment is set up in the hallway, the Levi's jeans hang on the wall instead of in the closet. It's always good to have a spare pair of pants in the room, the 25hours Hotel thinks, and hangs a casual Friday bag next to it. "The Freitag Bag on this hook is yours for the duration of your stay", it says there. "Take it out. Park it here. Enjoy your stay!"Cooperations are a pleasure to enter into here. For example also with MINI. Hotel guests can borrow the MINI fleet free of charge, as well as skateboards. Guests can also use Schindelhauer bikes, although you have to pay to rent them. read more
