Stay Curious – The Kinderkunsthaus in Munich
The first time I learned about the Kinderkunsthaus was when I was still living in the United States. I remember that I was mindlessly browsing through my Instagram feed when I saw this: a photo of kids and parents crafting together at tables covered in paper, paint...
Friday Link Love

Best Christmas Markets in Germany – Burghausen Edition
