No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

If you’ve been there or live there, I’d love to hear your perspective. I’m going for the first time to visit my daughter, who lives with her German boyfriend near Munich in a town called Grunwald. I’m coming from Michigan. The question’s intentionally broad since I’m curious about everything: must-try experiences, daily life, culture, etc.

In this case: welcome to Southern Germany (soon). We have lots of nature, mountains and beer.

Depending on what your are interested in there may be different things of interest:

  • Not that far from Munich is Augsburg, beautiful city with very old buildings. The Fuggerstadt is also very interesting. If you are visiting in August/September you may go to the Plärrer
  • You are also pretty close to Legoland which is in Günzburg (buy tickets online and add early as possible, they are usually cheaper then)
  • If you go in November there are Christmas markets (the one in Ulm in front of the Münster is kind of impressive though small, Nürnberg is awesome but full) and winter Tollwood in Munich
  • Nice seas and hiking locations all around Munich

If you have some more time and maybe want to leave Munich for a few days I'd recommend to either visit the lake of Constance for a few days (Bregenz, Pfänder, Seebühne, ... all very impressive and interesting) or go towards Austria and maybe visit Castle Neu Schwanstein (go on a weekday and bring some time with you).

Regarding food I totally agree with the others: look for a nice bakery/cafe and try some bread and cake. Try beers from Augustiner and Chiemseer, Hacker Pschorr is not that good imho.

If you find the time and are interested try to visit the city center on a market day (usually Saturday and maybe Wednesday not sure for Munich).
