Although having lived in Stuttgart (Stuggi) for some time back when I first travelled, I had little recollection of the layout of the city, let alone it’s public transport. Thankfully Matze, an old mate from 2005 (first Eurotrip) was there to pick me up from the airport.

Exhausted as I was from Scotland, I had difficulties speaking English let alone German, but after 12 hours sleep we reacquainted ourselves. That evening I also went and saw the family I’d stayed with, the next day an old workmate. Stuggi has a lot of old friends, and I tried to make the most of my time there by catching up with them all.

Thursday night, after only 2 days in Stuttgart, I journeyed on to Rohrbach to catch up with yet another old friend (sensing a trend?). Only this time, first time for the trip, my tactic of winging it went horribly horribly wrong, and I spent the night in an equipment shelter on a sports ground with a cat to keep me warm. Oops.

Next morning I hightailed it to Heidelberg and a warm bed, fleeing to the safety of family. Last adventure for a while, because next 10 days is Weinlese (wine harvest) time!
