Welcome to my travel blog. I document my adventures in travel, experiences, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!
Grüner Salon is a welcome addition to the Nordstadt precinct. Melina and Jasna have a taken a big step in opening their first establishment. But already it reflects their passion for good service and their affinity with their local area: a quiet haven that is highly recommended for locals and visitors to Dortmund.
A place of special significance to Australian football fans – it is where Tim Cahill and John Aloisi scored Australia’s first World Cup finals goals in the historic victory over our great regional rivals, Japan in 2006.
Two cities with proud heritages as coal mining and steel manufacturing centres respectively. The rivalry is intense but there is also something of a camaraderie between the two sets of supporters – even if they are loath to admit it.
Very warm welcome: fruit and bottled water waiting for me in my very large room and I was soon enjoying a beer and discussing the merits of various players in the Dortmund team with Rolf.
