🇩🇪 A Perfect Day Trip to Trier: Marx, Potatoes & Roman Ruins

What happens when you take a spontaneous trip from Luxembourg to Germany's oldest city? A day full of Roman history, giant potatoes, and hilarious language fails! 🚂 The Journey Begins Hopped on a 1-hour train from Luxembourg to Trier with zero plans—just vibes! The city greeted us with: ✔️ Porta Nigra (that iconic black Roman gate) ✔️ Trier Cathedral (where history whispers through stained glass) ✔️ Karl Marx's House (surprisingly quiet—we were the only visitors!) 💶 Marx Money & Potato Madness Scored a "free" Marx souvenir banknote (technically €3, but let's pretend!) Found a potato-themed restaurant 🥔—because when in Germany? Ate a whole baked potato stuffed with shrimp, spinach, and cheese (RIP my stomach) 🛍️ DM Shopping Spree German drugstores are dangerous: Left with €50 worth of face masks, chocolates, and weird German snacks (Why do I need 3 kinds of gummy bears? No one knows.) ☕ The Great Coffee Mishap Tried ordering iced coffee in broken German: Me: "Ein... uh... kalt Macchiato?" Barista: "Heiße Milch mit Espresso?" Result: A scalding hot macchiato in 30°C weather 🫠 (I drank it anyway—when in Rome!) 🌟 Why Trier? This tiny city (pop: 110,000) packs: 8 UNESCO sites (take that, Paris!) Roman ruins next to medieval churches Moselle River views that belong on a postcard Verdict: 10/10 would get lost (and overheated) again! #TrierTravels #OopsiesAbroad #PotatoOverload #MarxMemorabilia #GermanAdventures 🚂🏛️
