Patagonia Part 2
December 1, 2018
A lot of hiking and a lot of great views of glaciers and mountains in Argentinian Patagonia, and eventually crossing the border into Chile, also by hiking.
Wandering around in Uruguay
October 23, 2018
One week in Uruguay exploring the old town of Colonia and wandering the streets of Montevideo. And, again, eating a lot of meat.
Empty Hostels and Full Hostels
October 16, 2018
Visiting Encarnacion, Paraguay, where I'm almost alone everywhere, and Buenos Aires, Argentina, where I, for the first time this trip, have to book a hostel in advance as they're pretty much fully booked, and for one of the nights even overbooked. I'm visiting, among other things, old ruins, colourful neighbourhoods, and a pretty impressive cemetery.
A Lot of Water
September 28, 2018
Two more stops in Brazil, Bonito and Pantanal, both of which include a lot of water in various ways. Snorkelling in a clear river, wading among the caymans, and fishing for piranhas.
Three Countries, One Waterfall
September 22, 2018
I'm visiting Iguazu Falls, one of the largest waterfalls in the world, the Itaipu dam, also one of the largest in the world, and eat a lot of meat at a Brazilian churrascaria.
Jesus and two Sugarloaves
September 16, 2018
My first stop in South America is Rio de Janeiro in Brazil where I check out some cool street art, drink caipirinhas on the beach, and of course say hello to Jesus. I also spend a few days in the colonial town Paraty and do a bit of hiking there.
New Years in Cairo
January 1, 2018
My friend Andreas and I decided to go to Cairo, Egypt, over New Years as both of us wanted to see the Pyramids. The Pyramids are pretty impressive, but it turns out the best thing about Cairo is to hang around downtown and drink tea and smoke shisha like the locals do.
Portugal with Mom
May 14, 2017
I'm spending a week in Portugal with Mom, driving from Faro to Lisbon with several stops on the south coast for some time on the beach and to see some caves. Then we spend a few days in Lisbon, as well as a few days around Sintra seeing one of my bucket list places, the Quinta da Regaleira.
Going away for Christmas
January 1, 2017
I decided to travel over Christmas and New Years and decide on going to Dublin and Galway in Ireland. The plans quickly changed to included a few days in Northern Ireland as well to visit Giant's Causeway.
A Village on Stilts
April 29, 2016
A week in Benin, covering the historical town Ouidah and its slave fort, the voodoo market in Cotonou, and two Unesco-sites, the stilt town Ganvie and the Palaces of Abomey.
