A MOMENT TO CONSIDER

A conversation with a friend prompts Kefei to revisit eight days of travel through eastern Germany. The resulting account follows places, music, history, and the thoughts that become clearer after a journey.

Rather than treating travel as a completed checklist, the essay returns to experiences that still invite attention, from the landscape of Bastei to the breadth of Goethe’s curiosity.

A reading note on the published post. The complete piece, photographs, and conversation are on Koffeemocha.
