After three months and 5.050 km I have returned to Cologne. An unforgettable experience lies behind me. Enthusiastic, wonderful, breath-taking moments. Many heart-warming encounters with beautiful people that passed my way in five countries. Also desperate moments with a lot of uncertainty and being thrown vastly out of my comfort-zone. An inner journey took place in...
Vanlife is often dealing with the unexpected. Especially with an oldtimer car.Clutch suddenly stopped working on the highway while passing Trento/Italy. Forced me to discover the beauty of cities I did not have on my plan originally (Trento) and made me fell fully in love with Bozen. I had to slow down and made nice walks on the surrounding mountains Ritten and...
After two months of travelling and a lot of new experiences I felt it is time for me to have a break and deepen my inner journey for a few days. Being a gestalttherapist who loves the power of creative bodywork I decided to go for a Meditation&Yoga Retreat in the beautiful area of Piemento in Italy. Being instructed by the awesome Irma Lautanio I spent five...
One of my favourite places: Le Lac de Nino. I have been there already four times, because it is magic. Wild Horses peacefully graze by the lake and eagle families are circling in the air. The trek was quite exhausting this time since I decided to avoid the annoying pebble field and went straight up the cliffs in the direction of Punta Arctica mountain. After two...
The waves were quite high on the first days after my arrival in the northern part of Corsica. That was brilliant for surfers, but snorkeling needed to wait a few dyas until the water cleared up. I spent most of my time there relaxing at the beach and one very nice evening in Saint-Florent. A typical corse fisher’s nest with quite a big harbour. Riding the wave...
After two weeks in Slovenia and two days of heavy thunderstorms with little sleep I was wondering where to spent the last four weeks of my journey. Having seen so many new places I decided to come back to a place I know well, where I would feel quickly at home and so giving more space for my inner journey. stormy passage monte et mare south of bastia hills above...
The source of Soča river can only be reached after some climbing exercises (secured with pre-installed ropes). I think the challenging approach is a major part of the whole experience. Being happy that you made it you’ll discover pure magic.

Wonderful quiet campsite in Soča Valley. You can settle directly next to the river … if you can stand the never-ending rush of flowing waters ;-). Non-parcelled places and a very friendly owner make it an ideal home base for trekking around the forests and mountains of Triglav national park. Interesting to discover are the very large impressive butterflies that...
