Peru After a long and very uncomfortable bus ride and no sleep , I arrived in Puno at 5 am in the morning. From there, I took a boat to the Islas Flotantes de los Uros; the floating island of Uros. The Uros are a people who live on forty-two self-fashioned floating islands in Lake…

An unforgettable Roadtrip (III)
Peru In the early morning hours I could already see the impressing volcanoes surrounding Arequipa. When I arrived, my couchsurfer Hugo picked me up and we stopped on many places to enjoy the beautiful sunset. After he introduced me to his family, we went to a BBQ with some of his friends. They all recommended…
An unforgettable Roadtrip (II)
Peru After a hangover breakfast with the whole family of my couchsurfer and a nice bbq for lunch, I took the bus to Chiclayo. When I arrived in the next morning, I had 8 hours time to spend there before my Bus left to Lima. During the bus ride I talked to a traveler from…
An unforgettable Roadtrip (I)
Because I spent to much time in Colombia, which was not planned, I had to rush a bit from Quito in Ecuador down to Buneos Aires in Argentina: 8000km without taking a plane in about 5 weeks. Although it was quite a rush, I had an amazing time. Ecuador Quito, the capital of Ecuador, was…
Blue Fire – Hell on earth
I didn´t know that hell exists on earth- until I saw it. On the Mt Ijen. In Java,Indonesia. I went there with a friend by scooter from Bali. By the way, did you know that Indonesia has three different time zones? We drove up on about 1200 m altitude to the entrance of the Ijen…

Camping between Skyscrapers
On my trip around the world, my first night in a tent was not in the nature and not between trees. It was in a mega city. In an occupied street. In the business district of Hong Kong. Between Skyscrapers. It all began in Indonesia, when I realized that my next destinations Australia and New…
The Hammock Boat in the Amazon (II)
At 8 am they started. To upload the boat. With everything. Food, TVs, tools, beer, beer, beer, sometimes even cows and other animals. These boats are the only way of transport in that region. They are stopping several times along the river to unload and to provide the people living there with necessary products from…
The Hammock Boat in the Amazon (I)
I was in Patagonia, South of Chile, when I´ve heard the fist time about the boat. A girl I´ve met trough couchsurfing told me, that a friend of her was traveling with it. With that local boat. Full of hammocks. 7 days into the heart of the Amazon. Unfortunately she couldn´t tell me more but it was…
Hongkong – The City of Contrasts
Hongkong. I didn´t know anything about this city except the fact that they can use Google and China can´t. Honestly it was not even part of my planned trip. When you book an around-the-world-ticket you usually can only flight in one direction and when you look on the map, Hong-Kong is geographically “behind” Denpasar (Bali,Indonesia)…
Is that real?
Yes. These pictures were taken by me while traveling in Indonesia. This country is the biggest archipelago of the world with, regarding to LAPAN, totally 18,307 islands; 8,844 of them have been named. But to see this small magical island you have to zoom in a little bit in google.maps . It´s part of an unspoiled national park 5 miles…
BOOM in the Deserts
Some month ago, I was waiting for a bus from La Paz to Uyuni in Bolivia. The bus was late of course, but luckily I had met Quentin, a techno music lover with a Boom Box. So, at least we could listen to some nice music while waiting. We travelled together from Bolivia and its…
