Mittenwald, Germany.

It's a sleepy little town. The fiance and I spent 2 weeks there and it was fantastic. There's plenty of fresh produce and farmers markets to get good food. There's a lovely coffee shop with the best croissants so buttery and fresh. The place was built for walking and it's small enough that you really don't need any other form of transportation other than your own 2 feet.

The 2 weeks we spent there were also the first time we met each other in person and a secluded town surrounded by mountains was the perfect spot to get to know each other properly. We hiked along trails and walked hand in hand along the side roads. We ate at all the restaurants that interested us and half of them were pretty good.

The place is also gorgeous. It's surrounded by huge mountains so everywhere you look is a feast for the eyes. It's also close enough to Innsbruck to pop down by train and spend a day in a larger city.

Sadly I imagine we'd only be able to immigrate there after we've retired. Maybe that's something we'll plan on. It seems like the perfect place to spend my final days.
