Reisen ist unsere große Leidenschaft, wobei wir besonderen Wert auf Abenteuer in der Natur legen. Dieser Blog soll eine Art virtuelles Tagebuch sein um all die besonderen Erinnerungen zu sammeln. Schön, dass du hier bist und viel Spaß beim Lesen!

✦ Sahara desert, Morocco Traversing the desert with a group of camels was one of our big goals for a long time. On our 180 kilometers hike through the Moroccan Sahara our four legged companions were just fascinating to watch as they walked gently, slowly but steady through any difficult terrain - except rebellious Fred, who complained every once in a while. The silence of the desert made our thoughts wander, questioning the way we live our lives at home. So apart from great memories of landscapes and our new friends both furry and humane we left the Sahara with an insight of how little we actually need to be happy. ________________________________________ #morocco #sahara #desert #camel #hike #hiking #sanddune #dunes #bucketlist #camping #wildcamping #freedom #bestoftheday #picoftheday #travel #traveltheworld #travelphotography #wanderlust #explore #worldtrip #instatravel #travelgram #honeymoon #happiness #lucky #adventure #amazing
✦ Great Blue Hole, Belize Seeing the Great Blue Hole in the middle of the second largest barrier reef in the world from above was high on our priority list for a long time. So although it's not a cheap activity, we just had to book the bumpy and stunningly beautiful scenic flight. In our tiny plane there was only space for the two of us, the pilot and two asian tourists, who screamed their lungs out at every small turbulence and definitely added some adventure feeling to our trip. ________________________________________
✦ Galapagos Islands, Ecuador When we planned our trip to South America a few years back we were not sure if we should stretch our travel budget to visit the Galapagos Islands. But after spending our first afternoon on Isla San Cristóbal snorkeling with a seal in a cave at the shore followed by a sunset on the beach with many more lying directly next to us, we never regretted our decision for a single moment. We also noticed that in every colony there is always that one guy rolling in sand when still wet, who is ending up as a "seal schnitzel". Can you spot him? ________________________________________
✦ Seljavallalaug, Iceland A dip in a natural hot thermal pool is the perfect authentic treat after some days of wild camping and hiking in rainy Iceland. Seljavallalaug is a really nice spot located just a short walk from a parking lot and offers a rustic spa experience with great views of the surrounding mountains. After relaxing in this giant steaming bathtub, breathing the fresh air and enjoying the beautiful scenery of small creeks running down misty hills, which are covered by lush, green moss we couldn't have asked for more. ________________________________________
✦ Robberg NR, South Africa South Africa is one of the very few countries we visited twice during the last couple of years and that's for a good reason. At Robberg Nature Reserve we spent an awesome afternoon hiking the 9 km long and quite adventurous "Point Circuit Trail", where we spotted hundreds of seals and even some Southern Right Whales. In the end we got a little bit stressed when the sun started to set while we were still climbing over some pretty big rocks at the shore and ended the day trying to get rid of a scratch in our rental car with some toothpaste and a brush, but that's another story ... ________________________________________
✦ Zminje Jezero, Montenegro While Black Lake is the superstar of Durmitor Nationalpark in Montenegro, only a few people walk further to reach a much more remote and quiet place called Snake Lake. It's smaller, wilder and in our opinion even more beautiful. Enjoying the tranquillity of an early summer morning hike through the forest totally reminded us of our trip to Canada a few years back, just the moose was missing. ________________________________________
✦ Kruger NP, South Africa We're not really sure if we actually like baboons. They can be super cute when you watch them playing, cuddling and caring for each other, but are really scary when they stare right into your eyes or show their huge fangs - which can be the same size as those of lions by the way. Maybe it's also because Irene got almost bitten by one at Victoria Falls once, so leaning out of the car to get a picture of this male crossing the road was more thrilling than you might think. ________________________________________
✦ Wadi Dam, Oman Wild camping gives us the opportunity to sleep at the most remote and idyllic places, but finding the right spot to pitch our tent can sometimes be quite tricky. Our personal most important rule is that we want to feel safe in order to get a good night's sleep. Additionally it's a nice bonus if our spot of choice is protected from wind and sun, like this beautiful dried out river bed in Oman, where cliffs and trees created a great natural shelter. Ps: Can you spot Jonathan posing like Mufasa on one of the rocks? ________________________________________
✦ Namib-Naukluft NP, Namibia Deserted landscapes offer the most beautiful sceneries even though sometimes there is not much to look at. But this actually helps not getting lost in details and offers a different perspective on things. While overlooking the Namib desert after climbing Dune 45 in the early morning we felt like the world has no boundaries and time has no meaning - plus it was a pretty good workout. ________________________________________
✦ Haifoss, Iceland Visiting Iceland during the rainiest summer in decades definitely also had it's advantages. After driving on a pretty rocky path for a bit we decided to give our small rental car a break and hike the last few kilometers to this amazingly beautiful spot. The water plunging down the cliff into the deep gorge and the contrast between black volcanic rock and bright green moss created one dramatic scenery. Considering the fact that we were - once again - almost completely alone made Haifoss one of our most favourite spots in Iceland. ________________________________________
✦ Chobe NP, Botswana Hippos are not really hard to spot, but getting really close to them is a different story. It took us two trips to Africa until we eventually saw them just a few meters away at a safari cruise on the Chobe River. They look like lazy, chubby water teddies but if you see those deep scars on their backs and massive teeth once they open their mouth you realize it's better not to mess with them. ________________________________________
✦ Pavlova Strana Viewpoint, Montenegro After a long drive on a narrow, bumpy and curvy road we arrived at this stunning viewpoint of a gorgeous horseshoe riverbend that reminded us somehow of the hilly rice patties in Ninh Binh, Vietnam. The idyllic landscapes around Lake Skadar Nationalpark showed us yet another face of beautifully diverse Montenegro, which definitely made it to the top three countries on our trip through the Balkans. ________________________________________
