Craft beer and food, good enough reasons to drive to Saline. Salt Springs Brewery is housed in a historic former church, built in 1899. The dining room windows are stained glass. They fill the room with beautiful light. Good food, great beers and nice ambiance.

Trui is a Belgian journalist who moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan with her family in the Summer of 2016. Not the ‘domestic goddess’ type, she decided to make the most of the waiting-for-the work-permit-time. She became fascinated with Detroit and studied to become a tour guide.
There is so much to see, so much to tell. As a journalist and former editor of Knack Weekend, Trui knows a thing or two about storytelling.
Trui is a member of Via Americana, a unique tour guide alliance of six European women who fell in love with their new hometowns in the United States. They offer custom-made tours that take their visitors to well-known landmarks, but also off the beaten track in Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, and Washington DC.
