London calling

London calling

Getting home and feeling at home wasn’t as easy as I had expected. This was of course due to the mess we found in the apartment but also due to my inability to relax. The place didn’t even smell like our home. And I wanted it to be clean and free of the strange karma … Continue reading

Writing or cleaning?

We’ve done it! We are home. Sleeping in our own beds. I have my computer back. Times in which I’ve cursed about the wordpress iPad app are long gone. Life should be perfect. Far from it. Unfortunately our tenants haven’t been the cleanest of all people. They brought a dog (without telling us) and have … Continue reading

Nur Orga, kein WLAN

Wir sind noch immer auf der Rückreise, die sich über knapp mehr als 2 1/2 Wochen hinzieht. Die mexikanische Hitze haben wir schon fast vergessen. Die Entspannung ist auch irgendwie im sozial-Stress untergegangen. Uns beschäftigen gerade nur erste-Welt-Probleme. Auch die Bürokratie hat wieder Einzug in unser Leben gehalten. Eigentlich wollten wir erst wieder am Samstag … Continue reading

Schi foan

So, da simma nun. Nach vier Monaten Neuentdeckungen sind wir nun zum dritten Mal in Schladming zum Ski fahren. Als wir noch jung und ungestüm waren, da war’s noch wichtig möglichst viele Pistenkilometer zu fahren und zu sehen. Heute genießen wir die Nähe zum Mini-Club und dass wir den Kleinen nach der Ski-Schule abholen und … Continue reading

Back to Black and White

Back to Black and White

Happy to be back in Germany we were all fighting jet lag. We were looking so much forward to snow and winter but the change still came suddenly. It was like stepping into a black and white movie. Central America is colourful, loud and it was sunny most of the time we spend there. Germany … Continue reading

Top 5 Mexico

Top 5 Mexico

About 8 hours till take off, time for a personal Mexico top 5. Mexico is the country we spend most of our time in and I haven’t even seen all I wanted. We’ve heard about so many interesting places we weren’t able to see on this trip. Well, we might come back. Palenque – Jungle, … Continue reading

From Space

Just found that Comander Hadfield posted a picture of Merida from space 😉 Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. Unsure of the city, though. Perhaps Merida? pic.twitter.com/fzE1kylG — Chris Hadfield (@Cmdr_Hadfield) January 12, 2013 We’ve been there: A long pier and a full beach on the Yucatan, Mexico. The coastal city of Progreso just north of Merida. pic.twitter.com/00pQ6piS … Continue reading

Last night

Last night

Last night was our last night in Merida, today it’s our last night in Mexico and Central America, tomorrow we’ll be somewhere across the Atlantic. I can’t believe it’s already over and at the same time I am looking so much forward to Spätzle and Schnitzel and all the good stuff my parents and mother … Continue reading

Top 5 Guatemala

Top 5 Guatemala

We haven’t been to Tikal which is supposed to be a must see in Guatemala. Nevertheless we’ve had lovely experiences and saw beautiful places in Guatemala. We’ve missed so much everywhere and gained even more by not rushing. My very personal top 5 of Guatemala: Hallelujah! – In Antigua we’ve stayed with Nadir, a violinist … Continue reading
