Snow Hiking the Kepler Track in New Zealand was one of my highlights in my four months on the South Island. We had to make sure to be safe as well though and waited for the best weather window to do the roughly 5-6h long crossing through the deep snow. Let me know in the comments if you have done something similar and I hope you like my little New Zealand Nature Documentary!

My YouTube Channel has been around for a while, but I got to admit that I have never taken it very serious – until now! Doing a bunch of research, I am laying out on how I plan to grow my YouTube Channel in 2020. From my currently 200 Subscribers, I am trying to reach 1000 until Christmas this year. By following 5 basic rules, I hope to achieve that goal. Do you think I missed something very important?
[04/06/2014] After our stay in the magnificent Ilulissat Icefjord, we continued our journey down south through the Fjords of western Greenland to the little fishing village Sisimiut.

[26/05/2014] Hiking the 25km from Greenland’s city of Kangerlussuaq to the Russell Glacier is a perfect warm up for the Arctic Circle Trail. You will pass an old airplane wreck along the way and set up your tent right in front of the impressive glacier! Check out this video for some impressions of the hike. Read the rest of this entry »

[24/06/2012] Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro and the Serengeti pleased us with some spectacular wildlife, especially when two cheetahs came up right to our car! We also got stuck with our jeep in a remote lion territory and did a side trip to Lake Natron and the local Maasai before ending the trip on the Island of Zanzibar with amazing beaches and Kite surfing.

[16/06/2012] Climbing 5,895m high Kilimanjaro in Africa is a great introduction to the seven summits, being a technically easy trek. The altitude is not to be underestimated though and you can see in this video how it affected us on the Lemosho route. We could even witness a big tent flying away into the vast African plains, providing a rather unusual sight. Read the rest of this entry »

It’s time to fill this blog with content again! Let’s start with my latest video from April 2015, making my way from the rainy Fjords in Patagonia to the Island of Chiloé, tracking down the erupting Volcano Calbuco and finally walking and hitch hiking into ash-covered Argentina.
