Skadar Lake
Today, I went on another guided tour, this time to Skadar Lake. However, I could not profit of the commentary of our tour guide – it was all in Russian. But Skadar Lake is enjoyable even (or especially?) without comment. Continue reading Skadar Lake

Pilgrim for a day
To make the most of my stay in Budva, I took advantage of the tourist infrastructure today, and went on a guide tour. On this tour, we visited Cetinje (the former capital), and the Ostrog monasteries. Continue reading Pilgrim for a day

Am I in Russia?
As I enjoyed Kotor that much, I have been looking forward to my next destination, Budva. This time, however, my (now quite high) expectations have not been fulfilled. Continue reading Am I in Russia?

Fjord of the South
From Dubrovnik, I continued down the coast to the South, into Montenegro. Even while I was still on the bus on my way to Kotor, I had already decided that I really like this area. Continue reading Fjord of the South

Things to know about Dubrovnik
When you are travelling, you can learn quite a few things. For me, my stay in Dubrovnik meant learning some things about the city that I did not expect – mainly because these were things a travel guide will not really talk about. Continue reading Things to know about Dubrovnik

Damberg Time Trial
A few weeks before leaving Steyr for good, I am beginning to appreciate the advantages of living in this small town. The close mountains, as well as the valleys of the Enns and Steyr rivers, offer great opportunities for cycling. Continue reading Damberg Time Trial

A Weekend in London
On the past weekend, a friend from London celebrated her 30th birthday. Of course, I could not resist the temptation to fly to London for two days on this occasion. So, I also escaped the storm "Emma", as the weather in London was great: sunny, and only a bit of wind. However, on my flight back to Linz the storm took its toll, as we were redirected to Graz (after two unsuccessful attempts to land in Linz).

Ireland, the Emerald Isle
In June 2007, I made my first visit to Ireland. Now I finally finished my travel diary (in German), providing more details about my two-weeks stay on the island.
- One week, I was touring the Western coast in the beautiful Irish countryside.
- The second week, I spent in and around Dublin, enjoying the rich culture of the island.
