Travelogue 🇩🇪Germany #30: Race track
▶️ Germany has two major race tracks (=special road used for racing), and one of them is here in the middle of a hilly nowhere, about an hour from Cologne. Not that I'm into (=I like) motorsports but the area is quite impressive and car racing has a place in Germany, the home country of cars.
Nürburgring has a history of 100 years and almost every curve (=part of a road that turns left or right) there has a name. It is also among the deadlier tracks in the world with casualties (=victims, dead people) in the hundreds (=several hundred). Formula 1 races used to be there and will possibly return in some years to come.
Interestingly they built a rollercoaster (=mini train that people ride for fun) that goes through a building but after completion never got clearance (=permission) from Germany's rather tough technical inspection (=checking) organisation "TÜV".

The Economist #2: Western values in the rest of the world
▶️ Back in the days it was assumed that undemocratic nations would become democratic once they got richer. That’s obviously false. But there’s a glimpse of truth (=a little bit of truth) in it all the same (=anyway). Read this article to find out.

If you enjoy this you must also enjoy the failing smart home of a Swedish guy.
