My trip to the eastern parts of Europe had certainly been a true backpacking trip, using a lot of buses and train connections between the 11 cities and experiencing all kinds of different Couchsurfing situations. The farther we traveled, the crazier it became – ultimately climaxing in Russia. I actually used this trip as an inspiration for my Huffington Post CS-article; feel free to check it out if you promise to come back here afterwards 😉

Travelling from 26/05/2014 to 15/06/2014
My decision to travel around the world for two years kept me pretty busy and excited in the last weeks, but eventually I also had to take care of the trips prior to that and especially this remote one is something to look out for: Greenland, the world’s largest Island. Check out what I’ve planned and see if you want to join me on the 165km long Arctic Circle Trail!

The second stop in Colombia led us to Medellín, known to be one of the most dangerous cities in the world during the reigning period of famous drug lord Pablo Escobar. I was really keen on visiting the city after watching the TV Show Entourage, and it turned out to become one of my favorite places during the two months in South America.

Travel time: 2014, September – Beginning of 2016
Traveling has evolved into a passion for me in the past few years and even though I dedicate every single day of holiday from work into it, I am still only able to see tiny bits and pieces of what our planet has to offer. I want to see much more and go to faraway, adventurous and exotic places. This ain’t something I should do as a dad, so it’s time move soon and find a good way to manage the mammoth project! Check out this entry to find out more and share any advice you might have! Read the rest of this entry »
The video of my most recent Travel report about climbing the Barrhorn (3610m) is now done and I was able to stay just under 13 Minutes! The bad news is that I did not have the time to put subtitles in and there is a lot of German talking in the video. So please enjoy if you are either German, currently learning German or if you just want to see some motion pictures 🙂 Read the rest of this entry »

I’m completely exhausted after ascending a nearly vertical rock formation for nearly 20 minutes on my way back from the summit. Descending down from Europe’s highest hiking mountain already takes me a solid five hours since getting off the beaten path in thick fog at the top. Even though this will not be a good preparation for my upcoming Kilimanjaro climb in terms of altitude, it certainly shows me how serious it is to summit mountains and how careful you have to be in bad weather… Read the rest of this entry »

One new continent, five new countries and an endless list of new cities and activities were awaiting me when I started my two month trip through South America this summer. Joined by a friend and a Couchsurfer, it was a journey filled with great adventures and also some unpleasant moments. This will be the first out of many posts to tell you all about it and everything started in Colombia’s capital. Read the rest of this entry »
