Bavaria for your pocket: What travel guides don’t tell you. By Jörg Maurer

Plattdüütsch – The real North German.

If you are planning to spend your vacation at the Nodsee, we have this tip for you. The “Reise Know-How Kauderwelsch” series has published this audio book. The North Germans have just as much to say as other people, they just get by with far fewer sentences and don’t waste too many words unnecessarily. And when they speak Low German, you don’t understand them. The two authors Hermann and Hans-Jürgen Fründt not only convey their native language here, but also the mentality of the northerners. https://open.spotify.com/album/2LzGDwBuS6jlRodvLZTG6W?si=5-bYH1TcSPSVj84HqSbyvg
