Aegean at it’s best! We snake along a zigzag road that brings us through forests, past brooks and up the mountain, while Turunç, a former fishing village on the eastern coast of the Bozburun Peninsula at the Turkish Aegean gets smaller and smaller. Those who come here look for peace and solitude, away from the noise of the access roads but just close enough to the surf to be woken by the sound of the sea.
From Holi celebrations to the Ganges, from Goa to Panjabi MC, there are so many things people think they know about India. But be sure, that there are many, many more facts that you have surely never heard about. Here are 11 things you didn’t know about India (and will maybe still don’t believe them after reading this).
From rock music to the mini skirt: the Sixties have shaped London like no other decade. Whether it was music or fashion, the capital of the United Kingdom was the European Capital of Cool. But what is left of the great vibe of Swinging London today? Come along on a trip through today’s London – following the lines of the March 1967 issue of the travel magazine “Merian London”.
Hong Kong is far from cheap when it comes to accommodation. Nevertheless you can also find great budget places. Rather fancy a design hotel where you can spend some quality time? No problem. The city offers great options as well. Where to stay in Hong Kong? Here is our guide from Kowloon to Hong Kong Island, from budget to bling.
Hong Kong is one of my favorite cities. The main reason is that the metropolis on the South China Sea never bores me. It is not only subject to constant change, but also provides plenty of things that make every trip a real experience. These are my favorite of the most unordinary things to do in Hong Kong.
Azerbaijan is no ordinary holiday destination. Those who nevertheless decide for a tour, can expect a country that seems to be torn between the East and the West, between tradition and modernity. Azerbaijan travel experiences range from Baku, the vibrant capital city, to the most remote mountain villages in the middle of nowhere in the Caucasus. Welcome to a country that seems to have not yet really found its future between Europe and Asia.
2015. What a year – again! Still can’t believe where the last 12 month brought me, from Iran to Jordan, from Costa Rica to Hong Kong, from Ecuador to Azerbaijan, from Chile to Indonesia. But there was even more. The best way to capture all those fantastic adventures was by far my new favorite social media channel Instagram. I hope you enjoy my best travel snaps on Instagram 2015 and the Anekdotiques behind it.
Greasy Nuremberg sausage at 36 degrees celsius? Not a good, but an extremely tasteful idea. During the hottest summer in Germany I went on a culinary mission in the Franconian capitol of Nuremberg and fully hit the belly. Here is my culinary guide to the best Nuremberg sausage and more. Check out the most amazing Nuremberg restaurants!
Looking for a base to explore the Andes region of Ecuador? Hosteria Papagayo close to Machachi is just the right place to stay. A charming colonial hacienda with animals in the courtyard, cute rooms and a chilled atmosphere. All surrounded by Ecuadors highest volcanoes like Cotopaxi.
There is only one way to explore Old town Quito: on foot. And let me tell you one thing, it probably is more exhausting than you might have thought. First of all, because Ecuadors capital is at an altitude of 2850 meters and you feel it at every small step. But the attractions of the Centro Historico are even more breathtaking. In fact, Quito was the world’s first city to be declared UNESCO’s World Cultural Heritage Site. Come along for a walk through Centro Historico!
