When we sit in the office, type away on our keyboard and go home after the editorial deadline to unload the dishwasher, we like to dream far away, to a place with a beach, sand and palm trees. Ibiza for example. However, when reading “Bunte” we were suddenly torn from our dreams. Guess how much a portion of fries costs in Ibiza? 18 euros! A glass of champagne? 44 euros! A mini burger? 25 euros! If you’re crossing Ibiza off your bucket list, you should keep in mind: the density of celebrities is high on the Balearic island. “With a bit of luck, Facebook billionaire Mark Zuckerberg, 40, will park his mega yacht (priced at 300 million euros) right next door,” writes “Bunte”. There is currently only one colleague parking his VW Golf next to us in the underground car park, which is why we have to ask ourselves the question: Would we even be suitable for Ibiza? Our travel budget would be exhausted 24 hours after arrival. We also didn’t have the right travel wardrobe, as according to “Bunte” Zuckerberg showed up at the marina in Ibiza in a Balmain shirt for 1,380 euros and influencer Caro Daur in a Dior hooded towel for 990 euros. If you add a change of clothes to the mix, the whole thing is unaffordable.Standard holiday with Karl LauterbachYes, holidays are becoming more and more expensive. You’re one of the lucky ones if your father’s name is Karl Lauterbach. The Federal Minister of Health is traveling to southern France with two daughters and a niece. “This is a standard vacation. I pay,” he says in the “Bild” interview. There is one catch for the women: they have to complete “a cultural program at times”. Once they’ve gotten through that with him, “then it moves on to the pleasant part of the vacation for the others.” So the standard program is champagne, fries, mini burgers?
There is also the alternative of simply staying at home. We have been thinking more about this possibility since reading the “Bunte” editorial by editor-in-chief Robert Pölzer. There we learned that many couples separate after their vacation. In Japan there is a term for this: “Narita divorce”, named after the international airport in Tokyo where couples go to see a divorce lawyer immediately after landing. A reason to think about exactly where you are flying off from before you start your journey – and where you will locate yourself politically. A landing in Hamburg? “Helmut-Schmidt divorce”. Munich? “Franz Josef Strauss Divorce”, Berlin? “Willy Brandt divorce”. For my part, I am refraining from separating for the time being, because how does “Airport-Frankfurt-Main divorce” sound? Goes on vacation with two daughters and a niece: Health Minister Karl LauterbachdpaIntellectual exchange with Emma WatsonBut let’s rather talk about what keeps couples together. Is it the spirit? Or is it the physical aspect? Viktoria Dauser, wife of gymnast Lukas Dauser, who is competing for us at the Olympics, can count herself lucky. In “Bunte” she raves about her strong man: “He can really carry a woman on his hands, others just say that.” But one should not underestimate the intellectual exchange either. According to Gala, actress Emma Watson has a lot to talk about with her new boyfriend Kieran Brown, as she is studying creative writing at Oxford and he is studying for a PhD in 19th century literary theory. That connects. Intellect also seems to be Daniela Otto’s (39) love engine. According to “Bunte”, the doctor of German studies married the Munich “celebrity psychiatrist” Florian Holsboer (79) and immediately gave the reason: “Brainy is the new sexy.” A marriage only on paper? King Felipe and Queen LetiziadpaPerhaps Bradley Cooper and Irina Shayk missed stimulating their brains in time because they broke up a while ago. Now, according to “In,” the model draws the dry conclusion: “Two great people don’t make a great couple.” These words bring to mind the Spanish royal couple who made headlines this week. You may still remember Felipe’s lively performance at the European Championship final in Berlin and may have thought: Not a bad game! But we had to read bad things in Bild from Jaime del Burgo, who was once married to Queen Letizia’s sister. He claims to have had an affair with Letizia that lasted for years until 2011 and adds: “Letizia asked me to run away with her.” But that’s how it is: Once you reach a certain social status, a separation is almost impossible. Even if the vacation goes really badly.More on the topicWe don’t even want to think about what would happen if Anant Ambani, India’s richest heir, and Radhika Merchant separated. The two just spent $600 million on their wedding, according to Gala. You could have bought two Zuckerberg yachts for that. Or 33 million portions of fries in Ibiza. What superlatives are left for the honeymoon? But perhaps the newlyweds should just stay in Mumbai to be on the safe side. There is too great a risk that the vacation will otherwise end in a “Chhatrapati-Shivaji-Maharaj-International-Airport-Divorce”.
