Guide to the Island of FEHMARN – Where Plan B is the Best Plan

Beaches, Breezes, Birds, and endless fields of Brassica Napus – I don’t really have to explain why on the Baltic island of Fehmarn Plan B is the Best Plan, do I?

BALI – Indonesia’s Island of Gods

Bali, also referred to as Indonesia’s island of Gods, is a truly mystical place. Temples, fog-bathed mountaintops, and golden beaches make a trip to Bali a journey into a magical world.

Still, although Bali is safe and easy to travel, its infrastructure is not always convenient for solo-travellers.

ISLAND HOPPING in the CANARY ISLANDS

When going to the Canaries, you don’t have to limit yourself since island hopping between the various Canary Islands is really fun and so easy.

Two in one: While the hill on the left is Gran Canaria, the one in the backdrop is Tenerife. This picture proves how close the Canary Islands are to each other.

While most visitors pick just one destination for their beach vacation, you can have it all: Hop on a ferry or go on a plane and travel crisscross between Gran Canaria, Tenerife, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, and La Gomera as much as you please.

Trip to BELO HORIZONTE | BRUMADINHO | INHOTIM

While studying Portuguese in Rio de Janeiro, I thought it might be a good idea to take a trip to Belo Horizonte at the weekend – mostly because I wanted to see Inhotim, a botanic garden full of contemporary art.

Turns out, Inhotim was the only spot worth the travel. But so worth it!

One of Curitiba’s great public services is this ancient street cart. It houses a library, and you can even leave your kids there while shopping.

TRAWANGAN, MENO, or AIR – which island is for you?

While Gili Trawangan is rather for the party people, romantics’n’roamers find peace and quiet on the secluded islands Gili Meno and Air – but see for yourself which island is for you.

Beach on Gili Meno, located between the island of Trawangan and Gili Air.
All three Gilis pamper you with white sand, turquoise waters, and a million-dollar-view.

And if you can’t decide, don’t worry: They are so close and well-connected that you can visit all three even in just one day.
