In summer 2014, a group of friend and me spent just under three weeks in Iceland. During our stay, we drove around the whole island in a rental car.

From City to Sea
My vacation in Croatia was rather atypical for me. Apart from exploring some cities and national parks, I mainly spent my time relaxing on the beach. Pure indulgence!

There and Back Again
Thanks to two months of unpaid vacation, I could spend eight weeks in New Zealand in February/March 2013. Again, I really fell in love with this beautiful country and its friendly people.

Exploring Europe
After an initial trip through the United States in Spring 2010, I explored Europe on several trips between autumn 2010 and summer 2012: I have been to the Balkans and the Baltics, to Spain, and to Norway.

Backpacking in the Baltics
For three weeks, I was backpacking in Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia.

Hiking in Andalusia
My first stay in Spain was not a beach holiday, but rather a hiking trip.

Kraków and the High Tatras
In September 2011, I spent a week in Kraków and the High Tatras. Now, some short blog entries are finally available telling more about this trip.

The Beauty of the North
In July 2011, I finally returned to Norway (more than six years after my first visit). This time, I stayed for two weeks, and visited the south of the country (Bergen, Sognefjord, Jotunheimen National Park, Stavanger, and Lysefjord). Once again, I was stunned by the beauty of the Norwegian landscape.

Back to the Country of Black Mountains
In June 2011, I visited Montenegro again (after my first stay in September 2010). This time, I spent ten days there, during which I discovered the true gem of the country: its mountains which are mostly untouched by tourism.

Ten Days on the Adriatic Coast
In mid-September 2010, I travelled along the Adriatic coast of Southern Croatia and Montenegro for ten days. Now, my travel diary is finally ready.
