Today, the weather was supposed to be a bit more unstable again. However, the latest days with “changeable” weather actually turned out quite nice. So, I decided to go on a little hike nonetheless – just down in the valley: I hiked to and around Toblacher See, after spotting it yesterday from the bus window. Continue reading Look at this lake!

Busloads of tourists in Bolzano
As today was supposed to be another rather rainy day, I opted for city sightseeing instead of hiking: I went to Bozen (as it was least likely to rain there). Continue reading Busloads of tourists in Bolzano
More tourists in Merano
Originally, I wanted to visit Merano today on my way from one accommodation to the next. However, as the weather forecast promised rain, I decided to go a day early. So, I could enjoy Meran in sunshine – even though the weather today did not turn out to be that bad. Continue reading More tourists in Merano
Exploring Val Venosta
It is finally time to travel again! I am still limiting myself to (Central) Europe, though: I will be spending my time in South Tyrol and Slovenia. I started my trip with a few days in Val Venosta, in the West of South Tyrol. Continue reading Exploring Val Venosta
Rain in Radstadt
Unfortunately, the weather did not really cooperate: Since the day before, it was raining most of the time, sometimes quite heavily. So, all I did today was a short stroll around and through Radstadt. Continue reading Rain in Radstadt

This is why I decided for a hike to the top of Pfänder mountain (with views of Bregenz and Lake Constance). Unforunately, though, it was quite cloudy, and I did not get the views I had hoped for. Continue reading Clouds at Lake Constance
A Day in a Princedom
I started my trip through Austria with a day in – Liechtenstein! This might seem illogical, but why not visit this small country when I am close by: I arrived this morning by train in Feldkirch, just across the border from Liechtenstein. So, I spent a day exploring some of its town – and in the end, also Feldkirch in Austria. Continue reading A Day in a Princedom
Hallstatt in Corona times
Today, the weather was supposed (and did turn out) to be rather changeable. So, I decided to do the tourist thing and visit Hallstatt and its salt mine. Continue reading Hallstatt in Corona times
Back to Cape Town
Like last year, I ended my trip to South Africa in Cape Town. This time, I focused a bit more on the recent history of the city than the main tourist sites: I did some walking tours, and visited Robben Island and the District Six Museum. Continue reading Back to Cape Town
