Quick Guide to Cannstatter Volksfest
Stuttgart’s Cannstatter Volksfest rivals that other festival in Munich, which also spans three weeks each fall and features vast quantities of beer and German drinking songs. It’s not quite as big as Oktoberfest, but I’m betting it’s every bit as fun. As a first-timer, I was glad a few locals gave me some guidance along the way. So, should you find yourself in Stuttgart in the fall, here is my quick guide to Cannstatter Volksfest. […]

In 2011, we planned a multi-city trip to Europe with a first stop in Iceland. Our savvy travel planner suggested we add The Faroe Islands to our itinerary. Located in the North Atlantic between Iceland and Denmark, it was the perfect pit stop via overnight ferry.
