Get me outta here!
Just a word to the wise - unless you are visiting the beautiful city, never EVER go to Frankfurt airport. Ever. No food, no fun, no newsagents, no smoke-free zones. So long to wait, so little to do except puzzle the difference between the recyling bins ...
Volksschädlinge

Sour Kraut
... here. See, the corners of my mouth point to the sky. The corners of theirs point to hell. Which is why here in Frankfurt I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien, I'm an Englishman in the morgue. As much as I needed the sleep I didn't get it. The lurgy ...
Chapter 54: Reunion!
... , and his friend Sabina drove it to pick us up at the station. We relaxed in her apartment for a while, and then took the car to Frankfurt for the day. Frankfurt was a cool city, partly because it had the first real skyline I'd seen in Europe. The ...

To the Letter
... time I'd dragged my pack off the carousel it was 9pm, and with three trains to catch through the chilly tunnels of downtown Frankfurt, my destination was still well out of reach. The flight was fantastic, one of the best so far. I found myself ...
First Pitch at the Last Stop

I got to Frankfurt after my first hitch through Germany, which was completely different from Poland and Lithuania because you are not allowed to stand on the freeways there - it is illegal. The way you have to do it is to go to a petrol station along the ...
