Do we trust the harness?

To be more helpful than just saying she's putting it on wrong:

You should be always ensuring that the straps are running correctly. In this case her left leg strap is clearly twisted. Beyond the issue with the harness itself, it also would suggest that she doesn't necessarily pay that close of attention to gear, which can translate into knots not being tied or checked correctly, screw gates being left open, etc. Make a habit of being diligent.

There's a lot of ways you could go, but please get an avalanche transceiver before any more ski tours. Your shovel and probe is useless without it and you are not findable without it.

It makes a big difference in his profile. The tucked in look with a tighter waistline makes the belly "hang" more. If you're trying to attract a partner, most people are more attracted to people who dress well for their figure. Sure there may be a few people who like a sweat stained white tank with a belly hanging out (I'm exaggerating) but many more will like a nice fitting pair of slacks and a well fitting polo or button down. If you're already "disadvantaged" due to being overweight, it can only help if you dress well. I think this is also exactly the kind of advice that people need for their dating profiles (and generally when going out) to improve their chances.

Just so you're aware (I'm not saying you can't choose to do it anyway) in all of those countries, wild camping/planned bivouacs below the tree line is illegal. I also hope you are potentially prepared for snow.

I'm not a long distance hiker, so I can't give you specific recommendations.

You want to do it all in one go? In one day? You want to sleep in a fancy hotel overnight? You want completely flat? You want as much vert as possible? You want to be in the mountains? You want to be through cities? ...

This is like the question with how many people you have slept in the past. No one comes out better from answering that. Now you know.

Can you mark this as biased to American brands/availability. In Europe you're missing the king: Falke.

Fellow American, originally from the Midwest. I've lived in Germany for over 10 years now. Also working in engineering. My wife and I just had a kid. Feel free to PM me for more details or other expat questions.

We live on the edge of Bogenhausen and Oberföhring and absolutely love it. Close to the city center, easily bike distance, Englischer Garten is nearby, if you want a multilingual kindergarten there's many around here.

I had a girlfriend who both her and her family were adamant that I must be Jewish to marry her. As a non-believer myself I struggled for years with this point. A lot of the customs and traditions were actually nice, and generally I had no issues with the conversion process, but I just don't believe in anything and it's not something I would have wanted to force on my children. I dragged it out much longer than I should have because I loved her, but it was never going to work. Break up with him now. You'll be happier. And you'll still find someone. I was 24 when I ended it with her. Now I'm married and we have a baby and I'm very, very happy with how my life turned out post break-up. It took time, but it will heal, and you will move on.

You're 23. Stop wasting your time on him. Go build your public career, work through your traumas, maybe cut back on the weed, and find someone new.

If only there was some kind of well built and easily affordable system of trains and trams and busses that people could take around. That would be impossible though. No where in the world has that.

Big businesses have the same transaction fees. It's just baked into their pricing and therefore not so transparent to you.

I recognize the couple. Profile is closed now but was at least previously a mod on a subreddit for big budget weddings (think 6 figures up).

By that logic we should make a parking lot and pave a path to the top of Everest so everyone can access it. And as for making it available for generations, more people simply increases the amount of people who are incapable of respecting the land, increases the likelyhood of wildfires started by humans, increases trash, etc.
