I want more. Much more. Money? No way! I want more time! More time to live – 106 healthy years.
But I first and foremost want longer days – at least 36 hours, better yet 48.

Guide to SIEM REAP – beyond ANGKOR WAT
So here comes my guide to Siem Reap – beyond Angkor Wat. A place that at first made me feel bad. And ignorant.
Because contrary to expectations, Angkor did not blow me away.
This lack of enchantment makes me feel like such a jaded snob who thinks to have seen it all. However, I remember how the temple site in Sukhothai dazzled me. Was the spell broken? Will I no temple ever mesmerize me again?
This Way to the Whole Story ->THAILAND – all the must-see places
In this travel guide to some mesmerizing must-see places, I’m proving that Thailand is extremely easy to travel. This makes this enthralling country the perfect destination even for hesitant first-time solo travellers.

KAMPHAENG PHET and PHITSANULOK – two (un)necessary detours
Kamphaeng Phet and Phitsanulok might not be the most exciting spots in Thailand, nevertheless, you’ll possibly have to take those detours.
Therefore, I’ve put together itineraries for short stays in these places. This way, you still can make the best of these deviations.
This Way to the Whole Story ->A Visit to the HAKONE OPEN AIR MUSEUM – at the height of beauty
Although on clear days, you can be lucky to spot Mount Fuji all the way from Tokyo, most people take a day trip either to the Fujigoko Fuji Five Lake region at the northern foot of the famous mountain. Others try their luck and visit Hakone, a hot spring region with many grand places to experience – like the Hakone Open Air Museum, an outdoor gallery at the height of beauty.
World-famous Mount Fuji, probably Japan’s most iconic landmark, is a still active volcano, albeit, it erupted for the last time in 1707, so no worries.

This Way to the Whole Story ->The Sea And Sand of MUI NE
Mui Ne – this fishing village a bit over 200 kilometers north of Ho Chi Minh City stands for sea and sand. And talking ’bout sand, I’m not referring to just a dreamy beach but to amazing sand dunes on the outskirts of Mui Ne.
Whether you prefer them in yellow or in red – you need to get up at the break of the day to enjoy them most.
