Thanks for the comment, Gene! Not many people make it to Ulm, so it’s fun that you were also in the same cathedral!

While you didn’t do much in Germany my wife are going there this fall to visit long lost relatives (1800’s) & do as much in 2 months via train. Will fly over to berlin & depart from Barcelona via repositioning cruise in mid November. We have visited Europe on five ocassions & will seek to visit early historic spots from north (Hamburg) to south(Vienna). We also visited Ulm & enjoyed the cathedral. Always enjoy hearing from fellow traveler. Your thoughts & comments. Respectfully. G Berger

@Eli – Indeed…I hadn’t really thought of it that way, but I guess this style of travel is the ultimate in the often sought-after “getting off the beaten track”!

Having said that, I will also acknowledge the fact that there’s a reason why many tourist attractions are attractions – there’s something worthy of seeing. I believe that a little bit of everything in moderation is best.

Going from attraction to attraction would be exhausting. I like your method. 🙂

@Christine – Please do, and send me a note if you have any specific questions. I love to volunteer in trade for accommodation when I’m not staying with friends! In fact, I’m writing this comment from the English countryside where I’m house-sitting and taking care of 3 dogs. It’s great!

After I leave Nice, I hope to work for room and board around the world. I’ll certainly be referencing your previous adventures as I search for opportunities 🙂

What a nice contemplative, pensive piece ! I totally agree, if there is one thing you’ll remember (at least I usually do) is the contact with the locals in whatever circumstances (usually friendly) than yet another museum. If you are open to really listen what is going , it is so much more rewarding.
Cheers.
