Firstly, i want to say that it was a welcoming challenge in trying to take photos in different environment from low light to landscaping, portraiture, etc. It gave me a lot of thought on my upcoming lens purchase and which ones i needed most.

Secondly, i also had to balance out of what the general audience wants to see (i.e. happy snaps) and what i want to show them (artistic, abstract art). Keep that in mind while viewing as some photos are not well cropped.

nice one, great photos, where you on a guided tour? or just on your own? the allianz stadium looked awesome, i would be very happy with those shots, i cant wait to start travelling again.

how was dachau for you? i remember going there i think with my parents, i went to another on my contiki tour which was even more moving but i cant remember the name, but i do remember that you could almost feel what had happened.

Many photos are from guided tours.

As for dachau, i didn't have a guided tours. However, most signs are in English and there is a audio guide in which you listen to. At the beginning of the tour, everyone watched a really horrible documentary about the atrosities in Dachau. Many people were left crying and some had to put their sunglasses to hide it.
