The most scenic Matterhorn hike

The most scenic Matterhorn hike

I have made my way to the Swiss Alps, to Zermatt actually, and hiking was on my to do list. The weather was supposed to be perfect, and after cycling around Lake Geneva, I was ready to walk some hills again. But which is the…

Summer in Paris – enjoying the Parisian lifestyle

Summer in Paris – enjoying the Parisian lifestyle

I have been to Paris many times, but it was (until now) one of the few major capitals I haven’t been to, since starting my blog. Although, I have cycled around Versailles last year already (read blog here), I decided to avoid Paris. This time…

My Summer in Bavaria… so far

My Summer in Bavaria… so far

From canoeing in Almuehltal to visiting Munich and cycling around the Starnberger See, summer in Bavaria has been fun for me. And definitely not boring. Although, the weather can be quite unpredictable, but when the sun is shining, the days are great. I spent my…

From must see Lueneburg to Bremen and Hannover

From must see Lueneburg to Bremen and Hannover

And so my trip along the most beautiful Hanseatic League Towns continues. Rostock and Wismar impressed me very much and were so far my favourites. That was, until I found the prettiest town of them all. Must see Lueneburg, just 50 km south of Hamburg!…

The Hanseatic League Towns Rostock, Wismar and Luebeck

The Hanseatic League Towns Rostock, Wismar and Luebeck

As my journey continued to the north west of Germany (after Berlin) I found myself following the route of the Hanseatic League towns. Rostock and Wismar, as well as Luebeck were the first ones with many others to follow. I didn’t know there were that…
