Rostock as a not too big city probably still has (almost) everything you can imagine and could probably need. Like you might already have discovered on this blog or other resources, there are loads of cool places like bars, cafés, public areas which are pretty enjoyable but unfortunately often also a little crowded.

Fröhlich Frozen Yogurt – Refreshing Sin
You’re probably an addict. You’re on sugar. Don’t worry – me too! Sugar fuels every cell in your brain, sugar is a reward to your brain, sugar is addictive.

The smoothly Bowl
Oh man! It’s raining again! The weather service doesn’t seem to be that honest with their forecasts. Nevermind. The fact is: the whole plan i set up for this evening with my friends will be drowned. Sigh. I don’t like to sit in a flat again and do nothing only because the weather sucks. […]
A berry funny day
It was a beautiful Saturday in May; the sun was shining high in the sky; the birds were singing in the trees; children were playing outside, laughing happily… And what was I doing?

An alternative taste – The lack of meat doesn’t mean to be a lack of flavour
Probably everyone has its opinion about vegan. They don’t eat meat, only vegetables. They don’t drink any milk from a cow only soy. And so on and so on. If you think their nutrition doesn’t sound very varied, then you are pretty wrong. Have you ever tried some vegan food ? Have you ever thought about […]
