Germany sounds gout inducing but amazing lol! I loved Norway but struggled with some of the food, just a bit too rich for me. I loved the fresh raspberry juice and lindonberry everything though, I almost cried when a jar of the jam was confiscated at the airport lol (I forgot to pack it in my checked bag). I tend to do functional/affordable meals while travelling too, if you went to a fancy restaurant every night it would add up fast! I love the cooking class idea, fun and you get a meal, genius!
