Adventure @DB_Bahn : a nocturnal thunderstorm wreaks havoc with timetables technical issues with carriages = a simple trip from NRW to Berlin turns into an open end adventure trip.

A big thumbs up to the friendly and professional train service staff. They offered water, drinks and snacks to the stressed passengers in a professional way. They seem to have a a lot of routine in these matters...

Prof Veronika Grimm: Individual freedom is the basis for societal wealth #RzF2026
But it is not enough to discuss our own concept of freedom. We have to consider other concepts that prioritize stability and harmony, too. Despite differences, we need global cooperation.

I spent half of my day-off at some municipal office trying to pay my utility bills. 46 people before me in the line. Definitly my most favourite pass-time on a workfree day!

For #WorldWaterRun 2026 I did a 10k sunset round at Sabkha Ariana, a seasonal wetland near #Tunis, which dries up in the summer and is a haven for hibernating migratory birds and flamingos in the winter. Endagered by urban development @RunBlueOfficial

The US air raids on #Iran don't come as a surprise. The regional scenario is scary. Is there an exit strategy, a plan for what should happen after the fighting? Too often in the past similar situations in the Middle East have just let to more instability.m.youtube.com/watch?v=R15nKE…

Wishing a peaceful and inspiring #Ramadan2026 to all those who celebrate it. Remembering especially the local traditions in #Pakistan. Has #Peshawar sighted the shawal moon 1 day ahead of everybody else again?

A big shoutout to the friendly ticket inspector on @DB_Bahn ICE 969 to Frankfurt. He offered to help me and another lady to unload our bulky suitcases. The positive little everyday gestures that can make your day! Thanx!!

Price check at @dus airport at the bakery in the arrival area. Similar order, a cheese bun and a coffee, price: 9,50 EUR. Quite a difference!

Today 15 years ago the #arabspring started in Tunisia. What has come out of it for Tunisians? Read my article on freiheit.org/de/tunesien-und…

A positive indicator in turbulent times for international trade: while tariffs and barriers are the words of the day, the new #EU #Mercosur FTA opens new opportunities for trade and lower consumer prices.
Die nun endlich erfolgte Einigung der EU-Mitgliedstaaten auf die Unterzeichnung des Mercosur-Abkommens ist ein starkes Signal für offenen, fairen und regelbasierten Handel. Europa braucht wirtschaftliche Partnerschaften statt Abschottung. #Mercosur stärkt unsere Wettbewerbsfähigkeit, schafft Chancen für Unternehmen und reduziert Abhängigkeiten, auch von autoritären Staaten.
Auch im sicherheitspolitischen Kontext ist eine diversifizierte Wirtschafts- und Handelspolitik von hoher Bedeutung: Sie stärkt strategische Autonomie und trägt zur globalen Stabilität bei. Europa muss in der Lage sein, seine außenpolitischen und sicherheitsstrategischen Interessen mit ökonomischer Stärke zu untermauern. Dieser Schritt ist ein Baustein auf diesem Weg.
