Next morning at 5:00 am we were picked up by the tour bus to go to the Santa Cruz Trek. Our group was quite mixed. We were people from all over the world. One guy from the...

Colombia left a lasting impression and the journey to the airport and accordingly to Peru was uneventful, as Max and I reflected on the last days and weeks. Due to time...

After one week, we can already look back on many exciting experiences and new impressions. And one thing we have learned: Peru means having patience.

An oasis in the desert, a tiny little town, with about 20 hotels, lots of skis and snowboards, and not to forget hundreds of sand buggies zooming through the town! The...

From Marius' perspective After a pleasant night, we wake up around 9 o'clock (a bit late, though). We have breakfast together before packing up everything and getting ready to...

From Marius' perspective The Santa Cruz Trek is a four-day hike in Huarascan National Park. It is considered one of the most beautiful treks in the world and is a good choice...

5 days in the jungle - simple accommodation, but all the more adventure 😁, or so they said... With our guide we drive south in a taxi for almost two hours, from the town of...

After the short night, we still have to carry on, even if every movement hurts and is difficult - staying here is not an option. So I drag myself with Michelle to the main...

Whenever I had a single room in a hotel, I used the time (and especially the space) to unpack my entire backpack and cancel it again. Every time I ask myself how it ever fit in...

Day 22 to Day 24 Corona has us - or rather me - really great at 3500 meters above sea level. Cough, knockout, breathing problems. On day 20 there was a slight scratchy...

Day 14 Phew 6 o'clock. Sporty time. Did you know that in higher altitudes you have little or no deep sleep phase? It's really tiring. But hey, we were collected at our...

Day 9 The evening before we recklessly booked a bike tour - now you ask yourself - recklessly, why? Well, it wasn't because we were unsportsmanlike. On the way to the meeting...

Once again we took the night bus on the now 12-hour journey to Trujillo. This time, though, with seats that fold back completely flat so you could actually lie down and sleep....
