My first weekend in Germany and I went hiking totally alone! I had been lost if I had not met my guardian angel. Haha, actually he was an older man, whom I asked help at the train station before I went to Tegernsee. While waiting the train, I heard some announcement from the speekers I didn't understand, so I asked the nearest person to translate. He said that I have to change the train at the station named "Rchtshsjsd*lvnsv**zccr." Actually the name was something else, but this is what i heard and remember :D The words in their language are very long and difficult to understand and pronounce. For me at least. Luckily he understood right away that I will be lost. So he said that he is going to the same place and have to change the train also in the same station and that I can follow him. So we started to talk in the train and he couln't believe that I am going hiking alone and with NO MAP. I didn't even know where I was going exactly. I said I have no equipment, only water and food, but I am not any beginner also and I can walk long distances with no problems. So he wrote down some routes and mountines I could go to (also few other places I can visit some other day). When we finally arrived to destination, he helped me to buy the map. I used my last cash for the map. But I needed cash, because my VISA-card don't work here. He gave me 40 euros and his IBAN number and said that I will need cash, if I want to buy food or water or something else and he trust me and know that I will send the money back later. He even said that he have no doubt. I couldn't believe how helpful and friendly some can be. Luckily I had my Nordea codes with me and I made the money transfer immediately. He showed me the start and the direction and we said goodbye to each other and I thanked him for all this help and time and then we both went our ways.
Thanks to him I had such a great day, everything went so well and the route was amazing! Thank you again!

5h of walking up and down, taking photos and walking town to town around the lake. Plus the hours I spent resting and enjoying the view
Good night!
