Volcanoes, Coastlines & Vanlife in New Zealand/ Vulkane, Küsten & Vanlife in Neuseeland D/E/S
After some amazing days in Tasmania, we continued our journey to New Zealand. We had already spent six weeks travelling here in autumn 2024, but New Zealand simply has too much to offer. Back then, the time wasn’t nearly enough, so we decided to come back once again. This time, we deliberately chose to travel at the end of the season. There were significantly fewer tourists, the campsites were much more relaxed, and campervan prices were sometimes 20–40% lower compared to pea

Penguins, Sunsets & Camper Life D/S/E
After two intense weeks in Switzerland – filled with time spent with family, friends, and familiar moments – our adventure finally continued. The short break at home felt incredibly good. Seeing loved ones again, slowing down for a moment, and recharging before the next big chapter of our journey began. But shortly before our departure, things became quite uncertain once more: because of the war, we didn’t know for a long time whether our trip would even be possible. At one p

Penguins, Orcas, and Pumas: Memories from the End of the World D/E/S
For my sister and me, Antarctica was an unforgettable adventure. Once again, it was a true privilege for me to be there – and I know for sure it won’t be the last time. Antarctica is one of my absolute favorite destinations, alongside Argentina, South Georgia, and the Pantanal. And deep down, I know I’ll return… maybe in a way I don’t even expect yet. After this incredible chapter, our journey continued to El Calafate, where we visited the impressive Perito Moreno Glacier. Wh

Into the Deep: Our Final Days in Antarctica 3/3 🇩🇪🇪🇸🇺🇸
In the final days of our Antarctic expedition, we pushed even deeper into this remote and untouched wilderness. We were incredibly fortunate to experience countless breathtaking landings and unforgettable Zodiac cruises. One particular moment stands out above all the rest. After a landing, we set off again in our Zodiacs, heading toward a known whale hotspot. We waited quietly, surrounded by nothing but ice and silence, hoping for a glimpse of these giants of the ocean. And t

From Calm Seas to Wild Encounters: Our First Days in Antarctica 2/3🇺🇸🇩🇪🇪🇸
The Drake Passage was surprisingly calm – not what we expected at all, and definitely in our favor. My sister struggled a bit with seasickness on the first day, but after plenty of sleep and good food, she was back to normal quickly. I, on the other hand, spent most of the crossing in the bar, enjoying espresso martinis, great conversations, and that feeling that the real adventure was just beginning. The next morning brought an unexpected announcement: we were ahead of sched

Third Time to Antarctica – An Adventure I’ll Never Forget 1/3, D/E/S
And just like that, the time had come again – I was heading to Antarctica for the third time . This time my sister joined me, which made me especially happy. It was a trip that we both hoped would become an unforgettable memory. The journey began on the evening of March 2 at the Hilton Buenos Aires. There we met the other passengers of the trip for the first time. The average age was probably around 50+, although there were also some younger travelers and, of course, some old

Antarctica – My Expertise, Your Adventure
How to Make the White Continent Possible I used to think the same way. “The white continent is the only one missing… but Antarctica? That costs tens of thousands of dollars.” So I buried the idea. Until I met Jack and Sonja during an eight-day hike. They told me about agencies offering expedition cruises at a fraction of the prices you often see in Switzerland or through large travel companies. Curious, I started emailing different agencies and asking for quotes. Antarctica w

Slow Island Mornings, Explosive Evenings 🇬🇧🇩🇪🇪🇸
After Flores and Tikal , we crossed into a new country — at least for most of us. I had already been to Belize , but we all agreed it would be the perfect change of pace: a few days of snorkeling, swimming, sunshine, and simply slowing down. We drove four hours to Belize City and took the ferry to Caye Caulker . Three nights on this small Caribbean island felt like exactly what we needed. Life moves slower there. We sang karaoke, explored the sandy streets, and fully embrace

Guatemala Uncovered: From Volcano Lakes to Quetzals in the Jungle 🇩🇪🇬🇧🇪🇸
Since January 13th, 2026 , I’ve been traveling through Guatemala with my friends, and I can already say that this journey has exceeded all our expectations. Our adventure began with one day in Antigua , one of the most beautiful colonial cities in Central America. Surrounded by colorful buildings, cobblestone streets, and impressive volcanoes, it was the perfect place to ease into the country. Even though our time there was short, Antigua gave us a wonderful first impression

Manche Orte lassen dich nie los, Some Places Never Let Go, Hay lugares que nunca te sueltan
The new year didn’t knock.It crashed straight in. Just a moment. Metal against metal. Silence. Then the question: Is everyone okay? Yes. Everyone’s okay.A few scratches on our Uber, a crushed front on the other car. That was it. We got lucky. Still, adrenaline rushing through the body. Welcome, 2026. It was already the second time Uber became part of an unplanned story — and once again, it wasn’t their fault. You don’t choose these moments. You live them. And then you leave

Respekt statt Angst: Die Nacht, die mich daran erinnert hat. Respeto, no miedo: la noche que me lo recordó. Respect, not fear: the night that reminded me
The year ended very differently than I had imagined. With a real shock. I had planned to celebrate New Year’s Eve with friends outside of Buenos Aires, about 30 minutes from the city center. Around 6:45 pm, I headed toward Villa Ballester, a suburb of the city. I ordered my Uber at 6:00 pm, and after waiting 45 minutes, I finally got one — because who wants to leave the city center on December 31st when there’s good money to be made there? In the end, I had luck within bad lu

2025, Zwischen Wildnis, Wundern und Wachstum, Between Wilderness, Wonder and Growth, Entre la naturaleza salvaje, las maravillas y el crecimiento
Das Jahr neigt sich langsam dem Ende zu – und was für eines es war.2025 war persönlich wie auch fotografisch absolut aussergewöhnlich . Ich durfte unglaubliche Länder bereisen, besondere Orte entdecken und Momente erleben, die man nicht planen kann – nur fühlen. Gestartet hat das Jahr in Suriname mit einer zweiwöchigen Reise durch Suriname und Französisch-Guayana . Länder fernab des Massentourismus, reich an Kultur und mit einer beeindruckenden Artenvielfalt. Riesenschildkrö

Nicht stehen geblieben, nur leiser geworden, Not Standing Still, Just Moving More Quietly, No me detuve, solo bajé el volumen
Es war eine Zeit lang ruhig hier. Mein letzter Post ist vor ungefähr drei Monaten erschienen, und das hatte seine Gründe. In dieser Zeit ist unglaublich viel passiert. Ich war sieben Wochen mit meiner Mama unterwegs, vier davon sogar mit beiden Elternteilen. Gemeinsam haben wir Peru bereist, standen auf Machu Picchu und haben Erinnerungen geschaffen, die man nicht planen kann und die einen ein Leben lang begleiten. Danach ging es weiter, tief hinein in die Wildnis des Pantana
