Storytelling and Financial Organisation
From hiking Rainbow Mountain at 5,000 metres to exploring the floating islands of Lake Titicaca and experiencing everyday life in Peru, these weeks were full of breathtaking landscapes, unexpected encounters and cultural discoveries.
27.6. 18:00 + 4.9. 15:58I'm sitting at the airport once again. In two hours I will be sitting on a plane to Austria. My feelings? Mixed. Even though I've learned that I should take some time to "feel my feelings", I'm too afraid right now. So as always, I turn to writing. Usually the words... Continue Reading →
About 10 years ago, I first thought about travelling through Latin America. What started as a thought turned into a wish and slowly progressed into a dream. The journey was long: I first moved to Australia in 2019. This is the year when my desire to go to Latin America became very strong. I met... Continue Reading →
4.1. 20:24Where do I start? It's hard. It's already Day 4 of my road trip, and this is my first diary entry. You're wondering why? I don't know. Lately, I feel down. I'm not sure what it is. I've been feeling for a while now that I'm blocked somehow. But I feel like I'm getting... Continue Reading →
Last year was the first time I set goals for the new year, and this year, I want to do the same. So let's start with the fun part and review last year's goals: More self care in terms of moving my body, working out, focusing on my mental health and regular massages to show... Continue Reading →
A week ago today I arrived in Valencia, my new home for the foreseeable future. Although it hasn't been long, I've adapted well. I think it's mostly because I found a new apartment right away in the perfect location for me. It's right between the city centre and the beach. And it's the first time... Continue Reading →
3.12. 21:11Where do I start? I've been busy those last two days. Yesterday I met an American guy in the hostel and he joined me in visiting the famous Bran castle. It was a really nice castle, but for me personally, there was too much made-up stuff about the whole Dracula thing and it was... Continue Reading →
29.11. 21:34Another day done and dusted. I enjoyed another slow morning as it is my last day off for this week. For the first time of this road trip I took public transport to the city centre. I walked through the old town to my first stop: The National Museum of Romanian History. I was... Continue Reading →
26.11. 21:26Today was very adventurous. Last night, I was informed that my Airbnb in Kosovo for today got cancelled, so I had to adjust my plans. I found a different accommodation in Serbia, close to the border, and decided to only visit Kosovo for a day trip. My internet plan does not include Macedonia or... Continue Reading →
21.11. 20:57Today was the first day of my trip that was less active. Before I work I went to a bakery and had breakfast. I also prepared my clothes for washing, as I'm planning to do that at my next destination, Thessaloniki. After I finished work, I walked around Igoumenitsa and discovered a few cute...

19.11. 21:11It's amazing how much happens in one day. How long one day truly can be. As I'm laying in bed writing these lines, today felt like at least a week long. First of all, I had such a bad night. It's been a very long time since I had something as bad as this.... Continue Reading →
17.11. 21:01Another day done and dusted. I woke up early this morning, had a meeting, and then worked. I checked out at 10 and worked from my car till 1 p.m. Then I went to the beach to say goodbye to Ulcinj and Montenegro. It couldn't have been a better moment. It was super windy... Continue Reading →
14.11. 22:38Before I left, I set the goal in my mind to do 10.000 steps per day while I travelled because I wouldn't be able to work out. I was worried though that on the days I'd have to work, it might become difficult for me. Well, today was the first day I had to... Continue Reading →
12.11. 21:01This morning, I left Bihac and made my way to Sarajevo. The four and a half hour drive was absolutely amazing. The beautiful scenery and landscape I saw is exactly what I was looking forward to. Only the last hour was on the freeway, the rest was through the marvellous countryside. I never would... Continue Reading →
11.11. 20:04I still can’t believe that I finally left my home. Yesterday morning, I woke up in my apartment, and today I’m three countries away. It’s weird to think about it. How easy it is for me to adapt. The last few weeks were all about preparing for my departure. I had to • sort... Continue Reading →
