Dublin Live

#d_dublin

“Welcome to Dublin – the city where the sun never stops shining.” – certainly the best line of a flight attendant ever while we touched down in the grey and rainy Dublin last night. I’m here to do three trainings for our customers in Ireland and the first one is already done while I am writing this post. Hopefully it won’t rain so much on the weekend since I want to walk the first 51km of the Wicklow Way! The weather today was actually quite nice while I was walking through the city after work – check out the pictures in this post if you like 🙂

Scotland Live (second week)

#c_scotland_live

The second week in Scotland is over and it’s been a great trip with many beautiful locations. We were very lucky with the weather as well – apart from the snow in the first couple of days, grey sky in Edinburgh and just one minute of rainfall on our last Hike to Ben A’an, it’s been amazingly sunny throughout the entire trip. Check out this post for some shots from the last seven days!

Scotland Live

It’s been one week since I started my Scotland tent-roadtrip with a couple of strange couchsurfers and friends. After days and days without any Wireless Lan or Phone coverage, I’m now finally sitting in a Pub in the small village Applecross and will provide you with some shots from our last days. Check them out! 🙂

#13_africa_2_safari

Jamaica accelerates the Jeep, heading straight towards yet another water hole in front of us. The vehicle roars up as it gets stuck in the hole, leaving us stranded in one of the most isolated parts of the northern Serengeti. Our guide calmly tells us to stay in the car while he gets help. “Don’t you have a gun with you?”, I ask. “No… I have god with me…”, he says, and wanders out into the vast lion territory around us.

A couple of friends and I spent a Rafting weekend in Austria and we had an adrenaline-packed time, being chased by a storm on the first ride and then fighting the harsh rapids on the second. Apparently, it is essential to know how to properly drink Tequila if you want to take on the challenge of grade 5 rapids – read this quick recap to find out why!
