Depending on the time of year you arrive in Munich there are various ways to experience the city. In Autumn, the Open Art festival takes place, allowing visitors to experience the city's impressive collection of contemporary galleries, 65 of them to be exact. The weekend is filled with exhibitions and parties, bringing together locals and tourists. In Spring, Die Lange Nacht der Musik, (Long Night of Music) is held, boasting around 400 concerts taking place in bars, restaurants, and even churches. Stay up to date on annual events, from the Christmas Markets and outdoor festivals that can be easily reached when you rent a car.
Driving in Munich is generally low key and easy, as the main roadways are clearly marked and safe. In 2008, the city of Munich established a "low emission zone", thus all of our vehicles provide the necessary sticker to prove that they meet emission standards. There are several main roads that lead to Munich. The Autobahn 8, A8, runs from Stuttgart-Munich and the A9 between Nuernberg and Munich, which is also considered to be one of the busier roads in the area. To avoid congestion at rush hour, there are smaller roadways that are known as B service roads that can be taken. When driving near or around the urban center there are several parking garages available, the biggest one located at the Munich Hauptbahnhof.
Aren't long weekend with friends and family great? Perhaps a backyard barbeque, a trip to the beach, or just some quiet time alone to caught up on your favorite show. However, the thing about long weekends is that we look forward to them so much but then dread going back to work at the end of it. We literally either go to bed or wake up with a sense of heaviness at the mere thought of having to go into to the office the next day.
Everyone hates flying, but brown people have it especially rough. Comedian and famous brown man Aasif Mandvi shows brown people how to blend in with the white folks and actually make their flight in this hysterical but all-too-true Flight Safety PSA. NOTE: these examples have actually happened. Seriously. We wish we were making this up.
