I'm looking to buy a bunch of cans of Heinz baked beans. Anyone know where I can get them, and not at imported-from-UK prices?
Already checked Karstadt on Tegernseer Landstrasse and V-Markt on Balanstrasse... no luck, and those Erasco ones don't cut it.

If anything, it should teach you that you need to do some research about a place before you move there. To expect more sun and less cold in Munich than in Italy is just plain stupid. I don't want to hear your whinging anymore, if you can't appreciate the seasons then move to Florida or…

What? Ultimate Frisbee.
No really, what? Basically it involves throwing and catching a frisbee while running about, generally with a collective visit to the beer garden afterwards. Absolute beginners are very welcome, the game is really easy to pick up and it's a great way to get fit. If…

I was married for 5 years. My ex made good money and we decided together that I would stay home with our son. Long story short I ended up going back to work because my ex was lousy with money. I had to pay for the sitter and my ex ended up spending even more because he figured I could pay the…
Munich is a great place for cycling tours, either within the city itself with a Biergarten stop or outside of town in the Bavarian countryside.
One tour is normally planned each weekend by a dedicated team during a season which starts mid-March and ends with the first snows of December. This…
So, I met her today afternoon and she was so curious why I invited her in the weekend for a coffee time together with my husband. My husband wants to be there to give me a moral support and helps me to explain stuffs better to her (He is a German, so language is not a problem for him).

Kitesurfing is one of the newest extreme sports to be sweeping the globe. The deal is this: you wear a body harness, attach yourself to a great big kite, strap a surfboard to your feet, and then let the wind drag you at high speed over a lake or the ocean. As well as barrelling across the waves,…

The smell is someone's reason for disliking Abercrombie? That's a new one for me.
See, back in my school days, along with the nerds and stoners and headbangers and skaters and jocks and what not, there were the preps - the kids who by virtue of having rich parents were naturally superior…

I also spent some time looking for a kitten to adopt in the Munich area when a friend referred me to this organisation. They are looking for people to rehome unwanted cats and dogs (not feral) from their Tierheim down in Spain which works with various animal shelters throughout Germany. All the…
