In autumn 2013, I spent a relaxing holiday in Croatia. In the years 2014 and 2015, however, the focus was more on hiking: in the Nordics, in the Caucasus, and in the Himalaya.

Transdanubia from Donauturm
After our first unsuccessful try to visit Donauturm, we were much smarter today: We rode our bikes to the tower, thus avoiding any parking problems. So, after some 20 years, I finally managed to visit Donauturm again. Continue reading Transdanubia from Donauturm

Old caves, new castle
I have finally arrived at the last destination of this year’s stay in Georgia: Borjomi. From there, I went on an excursion to the impressive cave city of Vardzia.
