Ach du lieber Himmel, Houston traffic makes even a Bavarian cowherd want to turn back—but nein, stick around, because this place ain’t just stoplights and sweat. Houston wears the nickname Space City louder than a Texan in a fresh pair of boots, and if you think that’s just a tourist slogan, you’d be dümmer than a pretzel in chili. From Apollo to "Houston, we have a Problem" Back in the 1960s, when America was racing the Russkis to the moon,…
Ach du lieber, if one more tourist asks me, “Hans, what’s the biggest secret about Texas?” I might just spill my beer all over their cowboy boots. First rule, mein Freund: Texans don’t hand out their true secrets like free pretzels at Oktoberfest. What makes Texas tick isn’t in a museum brochure—it’s tucked away in dusty backroads, whispered in honky-tonks, and sometimes hiding in grandma’s cast iron skillet. Hidden Texas Secret – It Ain’t What You Think Most folks imagine…

Texans Frauen are no decoration on a pickup hood ornament, jawoll – die Ladies hier pack as much grit and fire as a Bavarian woodcutter with a hangover. The Myth of the Barbie Cowgirl Ja, I see it, Hollywood loves to paint the picture: teeth white as Alpine snow, hair bigger…
Ach du lieber Himmel, Texas! The first time I stepped out of my truck in Corpus Christi, the air slapped me right in the face – salty, humid, and carrying a whiff of diesel from the port. Not like the crisp alpine mornings of Bavaria, nein-nein. Here it feels like the sea itself wants to wrestle you, and somehow you end up liking it. Jawoll! Seaside Texas with a Bavarian Twist Corpus Christi is like the rebellious cousin of your…
Scheißwetter in November? Ha! In Texas, even the rain comes with fireworks. That’s the thing, Leute – Texas don’t do anything half-sized. It’s either blazing sun, or thunderstorms that make a Bavarian spring shower look like kindergarten with a watering can. Texas Size, Bavarian Eyes So, what’s the best about Texas? Easy: it’s BIG. Die Weite – the space. In Bavaria if you drive 30 minutes, you’re in another village with three cows and a bakery that closes at noon.…
