My Tip<br />

for <strong>Regensburg</strong>!<br />

Throughout “<strong>Discover</strong> <strong>Regensburg</strong>”<br />

you will find<br />

many tips by Nickayla Myers-<br />

Garner, a dedicated fan of<br />

the city.<br />

Nickayla, a native of North<br />

Carolina, is a Hohenfels community<br />

member who cur-<br />

Nickayla Myers-Garner<br />

rently lives in the Old Town<br />

of <strong>Regensburg</strong>. She moved to <strong>Regensburg</strong> from<br />

Parsberg 2.5 years ago and “has not regretted<br />

one moment of it”, as she herself says. She was<br />

able to find everything she needed to be happy<br />

while living there: access to great shops, fun leisure<br />

activities, interesting international friends,<br />

English speakers and exciting places to explore.<br />

<strong>Regensburg</strong> makes it easy for American visitors,<br />

says Nickayla.<br />

„When traveling here don’t let the language barrier<br />

intimidate you, many <strong>Regensburg</strong>ers speak<br />

English and are eager to assist visitors to the city.<br />

As soon as you arrive in <strong>Regensburg</strong> for the first<br />

time go to the <strong>Regensburg</strong> Tourist Information<br />

Office which is located in the town hall (Altes<br />

Rathaus) where the friendly staff will help you<br />

find activities to suit most of your needs.”<br />
