A trip like mine is often associated with processes of personal development - both consciously and unconsciously. For my part, I try to use my trip to my advantage in this...

Due to a lack of motivation, I'm summarizing Saturday and Sunday today. I currently think that the first half of my trip was the better one. I've now gained experience in cities...

I experienced a very special atmosphere in the morning at Riga's central market. Countless traders offer their products in old Zeppelin halls. There are separate halls for meat,...

My second day in Riga was similar to that in Vilinus in some ways. The night was much too short, but as mentioned, that was due to the background noise 💤 and the day was all...

It's actually not difficult to get to a train on time. Nevertheless, I'm always so relieved when I've managed it. That was the case again this morning 🙂 And there are things...

33,000 steps - that's what my watch showed me last night. I now know the old town and streets quite well, but of course I haven't seen everything yet. My third and last day in...

On a trip like this, I quickly lose track of the days of the week. So Monday morning was the morning after and it felt really hard 😪 A mix of physical exhaustion and general...

As you know, I took the train from Warsaw in the morning to the Lithuanian capital Vilnius. Due to the time change, the journey took an hour less than expected. Nevertheless,...

After arriving in Warsaw on Friday, I had already bought a train ticket to Vilnius. One train a day, journey time around 9 hours 45 minutes and departure at 7:45 a.m. That set...

I didn't want to take too much luggage with me on my trip. That worked out reasonably well. One half of my suitcase is filled with clothes, the other half roughly with all kinds...

When I was looking for my next travel destination, I thought for a long time that I would like the sun in southern Europe. But nothing happened. I had already submitted my...

Tuesday, January 31, 2023. On vacation, I quickly forget the date and day of the week - maybe you know that too 😅 Our day started as usual: get up at 7 a.m., have breakfast,...

Yesterday Benny and I were warmly welcomed in the hut. After a short introduction and a few new card games, we immediately put our forged plans into action the next morning 👍...

This year starts with an unusual but eagerly awaited experience for me: winter vacation ❄️ I would describe my experience level in this area as 3/10. This includes, among other...

The disadvantage of a good bed is the person who doesn't lie in it enough ☝️ I got the necessary strength for my second trip at breakfast. This was urgently needed, as I had...

I could have stayed in bed for a long time 😴 but today there was a lot to experience. It started with an amazing breakfast as preparation for the day 🤤 By the way, if you want...

The observant reader of my last blog series will have noticed that I did not manage to finish it. Everyday life has captivated me too much 😵‍💫 Now I'm making a fresh start and...

One of the best strategies is and remains simply to go 🙂 We had planned to take a trip over the old city wall of Heraklion. Instead, we got remarkable views, some secret places...

Just three more sleeps and then it's back to Germany. Since the beginning of the week, my focus has been more and more on the end of my internship abroad. It is all the more...

Time is running out. This is certainly nothing new for all of us, but the realization still surprises us every time 😅 After the sunny weekend, I would describe the weather as...

Sometimes the headline doesn't have to fit the text - I'll try anyway 😄 It's Sunday, dear people! 🌞 The weather has played along perfectly again, so my mobile keyboard is...

The weather forecasters have been predicting it for a long time and on Friday it finally became certain: bright blue sky, plenty of sunshine and temperatures that we have longed...

There is some work to do.. During my stay abroad, I work for MDHellas Group. I can't tell you exactly what the company does. But the main activities include the placement of...

Fahr nach Kreta, dort scheint die Sonne, haben sie gesagt 🤨 Zur Zeit herrscht hier eher untypisches Wetter für den März und selbst in Deutschland ist es laut der Tagesschau...

The past few days have been a bit quieter than usual on my blog. This was not so much due to poor reception in the mountains, but rather because we had some great experiences...

This weekend we are leaving Heraklion and going on a small road trip in western Crete. As it should be, we encountered a few stumbling blocks at the beginning. We wanted to...

On a regular day like today, I always start with a homemade breakfast. Since there is no toaster, the apprentices at my accommodation came up with the idea of toasting the bread...

Today I'll give you a little glimpse into my accommodation :) Honestly, my room or apartment - as it's officially called - is one of the big disappointments here. Not because of...

Direkt nach der Arbeit sind wir nicht gleich mit dem Bus in die Unterkunft gefahren, sondern wollten die ersten beständigen Sonnenstrahlen nutzen. Zuerst Obst und Gemüse auf...

'Adventure and mentally unprepared' ... that's how I would describe the start of my internship in Crete. Almost everyone - including myself - associated sun, hotel and...
