Nothing going on here. Really? No way!

Colourful events, as far as the ear can hear!

Monotonous hills connecting dull little towns with empty village greens – totally boring! On my way into this unknown land, I pass housing blocks, fields, and cows. Lots of “scenery” that doesn’t get any better even from a hunting stand. Boring scenery. What am I even doing here?

Not giving up – I’m already here after all – I pull over and decide to ask around. The assistant at the petrol station silently shrugs her shoulders, the baker has long closed his shop for the day, the pub is no longer open, and the old lady at the window in the next village, who is reshaping her beige-striped plush pillow with her elbows by the window, just waves me off. Nothing has been happening here for a long time …

So, plan B. I grab my phone – after all, the internet knows everything? – and hope for some inspiration to turn this monotone present into something lively. There must be people, experiences, and a proper wine spritzer to be found. Even here. In Thuringia! Because yes, the drive has made me thirsty. But wait, what’s this? No signal!! Nothing!

With a sigh, I start the car and let it roll. My eyes do too. Downhill, toward the Saale River. Through the open window I hear tractors. There really are a lot of fields here. But they sound different, almost in rhythm. Is that… music? Totally weird …
Well, off you go to Thuringia!
