Willie seine Reisen

By plane, it's really just a hop of 25 minutes between Pokhara and Kathmandu. We had to wait briefly until Kumar (our driver) picked us up at the airport, and despite the...

At 5:00 am, we stood at the still closed entrance of the national airport, ready for our Scenic Mountain Flight through the Himalayas. Everything was a bit slow and sluggish,...

Our first Dal Bhat in Thamel, Kathmandu.

The flight from Delhi to Dehradun was as short as it can be: 30 minutes of flying time, whereas it would have taken 5 hours by car. We stepped out of the plane into the warm air...

More or less recovered, we started our first day in Delhi. We met Shipra, who would guide us through the day and New and "Old" Delhi, in the lobby of the hotel at 9 a.m. This...

The marble mausoleum at sunrise

⚠️ ⚠️ Caution ⚠️ ⚠️Two postsPlease read the travel stop further down!! Namaste. Completely rested and excited about the things to come, we got off the plane in Delhi...

After a rather short night, we headed to the airport at 6.30 am sharp with two suitcases, a backpack, and a carry-on suitcase. Everything went smoothly, so we soon found...

...or rather: gone again. In the 2.5 years that it was very quiet here, our good old Willie was mostly used for everyday tasks and the rooftop tent was sold during the pandemic....

The crossing went smoothly and so we arrived back on the mainland on Tuesday morning. The cars were hurriedly waved out of the crowded deck and we quickly maneuvered Willie away...

Sardinia - a fascinating island. A bit like the European Caribbean: crystal-clear water shimmering in shades of blue, enough waves for surfing, canyons and mountains for hiking,...

A phenomenal view in Tuscany at sunset.

Venedig, eine beeindruckende Stadt. Besonders anfänglich schaut man nach jeder zweiten Biegung auf die Karte, ob man immer noch richtig läuft, so verwinkelt sind die kleinen...

Welcome back... As you can imagine, this year's vacation planning was a bit chaotic. Besides personal obligations, we didn't know where we would be allowed to travel due to a...

The closer we got to the capital, the busier and more chaotic the traffic became. Our first real traffic jam on vacation caught up with us in Stockholm in the end! After we...

Swiftly we crossed the border into Sweden, as we had already made a rough plan beforehand on how we wanted to spend the remaining days and which routes needed to be covered...

The border crossing into Finland, we could hardly pronounce or understand the road signs. For example, the sign that warns of speed cameras: Automaattinen liikennevalvonta. The...

We want to warn you: this post might be a bit longer. But that's a good thing for our journey because it means a lot has happened, many memories and photos have been made! We...

The next day took us along the coast on a coastal road, crossing two ferries through breathtaking landscapes. Since we naturally did not inquire about the departure times in...

Unexpectedly, our Swedish AirBnB host offered us a Norwegian cabin experience. We had initially planned to move further north, but since it was going to rain again, we gladly...

On the first day, after a good breakfast, we left Berlin for Kiel at 11:00 on 31.08.19 with Willie and then took the ferry "Stena Line Germanica" to arrive in Gothenburg...

Finally, the time has come again, Willie and Gunther (if you don't know them, you haven't been reading) are going on a journey with us. Exactly one year ago, we started our...

We didn't have big plans for Austria anymore, and we also agreed that a longer hike on the last day would increase the risk of injury, especially since we had already walked...

The first hike in Slovenia was, just like in Serbia, more of an exit game than a real hike - we had to find the markings in various places and distances and not be confused by...

Due to the late border crossing and arrival in the dark, it was important for us to find an easily accessible sleeping place close to the destination for the next day: the...

At the border, it seems like everyone knows each other: a brief exchange of words, then a wave through. Of course, tourists like us don't get the same treatment, we only get...

Along the touristy Croatian coast, we admired the play between the Adriatic coast with all the apartments and hotels on one side, and the high rising mountains on the other...

This was supposed to be an overview, to roughly keep you updated on where we are and what we're experiencing. The reason for these detailed texts is our sieve-like brains. We...

Another dreamy morning: low-lying foggy fields on the meadows and sun shimmering the dew. The world was slowly waking up and we were already on our way to the Serbian border....

The night in the accommodation paid off: it started pouring and we were sitting in the dry! The next morning, the clouds still hung ominously low - so no black hike, but a visit...
