Vielfältige Ausstellung, feines Konzert in der Kapelle, lässige Musikbespielung (JazzLounge, Hoizkopf und die Geniesser), nettes Kinderprogramm (Schmieden, Filzen, Drucken), grandiose Burg-Kulisse und herrliches Wetter - ein gelungener, chilliger Samstag Nachmittag/Abend!

Hoffentlich gibt es das nächstes Jahr wieder - dann unbedingt hingehen!

Podcasts!

I know i'm laaaaate, but i just dived into the fun & power of podcasts (mainly while commuting).

So much interesting content out there!

Currently i listen to news-podcasts and technical channels.
