Because life gives you different opportunities
So, here I am. After two years of travelling in Europe mostly, I am back in Thailand, touring and living in Bangkok. There is not much to say about the quarantine, except that I was glad when, after 15 days, I was out on the…
So, I have made it to Thailand (pic above from 2 years ago). After many months and weeks of finalising all the paperwork, I was finally able to fly. From the visa application to waiting on the Covid test, as well as seeing the empty…
With all my previous hiking in the French and Swiss Alps, I thought it was once again time to hike the German Alps. After all, I haven’t done it since my Kehlsteinhaus hike almost two years ago (read here). So, how about hiking to Kampenwand…
