Live #32 – Cambodia

19 Apr April 19

[24/02/2017] Traveling through Cambodia was absolutely great! Starting off at Kep, where one of the world’s best pepper is produced, continuing to the Koh Rong Islands with amazing water and phosphorescent plankton at night and eventually ending it with the countries highlight: Ankor Wat!

Crux AK70 Backpack & Camping Gear Review

15 Apr April 15

My next travel gear review will cover the essentials such as my Crux AK70 Backpack and Nordisk Pasch tent, as well as the sleeping bag and mattress. Since I cover all climate regions in the world within one trip, I have to be prepared for cold temperature as well and carry the appropriate gear with me constantly. For that reason, I have spent a bit more money in those basic items, making sure they are as light and durable as possible. Check out the review for the details! Read the rest of this entry »

(Video) Climbing Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, Africa

05 Apr April 05

[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 »

31 Mar March 31

[16/02/2017] Amazing Thailand has still so much to offer aside the touristic hot spots!

Travel Costs #01 incl. Country Statistics!

26 Mar March 26

Here is a first update from my Travel Costs, including everything until today! Back in my original post about general travel costs and how to travel cheaply, I actually included all the future upcoming flights into the statistics. This has now been fixed and the following stats only count every expense until today and nothing that is booked ahead, reflecting the current daily cost a bit more accurate. I have also added a breakdown of the average costs for all the countries in detail.

Live #30 – Thailand (Phuket & Ko Yao Noi)

19 Mar March 19

[10/02/2017] Thailand is not such a loved vacation destination for many without a reason. This video covers my arrival in Phuket, the new baby cat friend I have made and the awesome Island of Ko Yao Noi; which is, for some reason, not yet overcrowded with tourists!

Live #29 – Singapore

14 Mar March 14

[07/02/2017] Before entering Thailand, I have made a quick stop in the “fine” city of Singapore! You could get a big fine for crossing the street without green light or drinking water on the train- both of which I have done repeatedly. There is not too much to see here, but the Marina Bay Sands building and downtown is certainly worth checking out!
