Getting my Jane on in Costa Rica

Posted on Monday August 15th, 2022Saturday December 10th, 2022by Simone
lush jungle golden beach life Uvita Costa Rica

Pura vida! That translates to pure life. In Costa Rica also used as a greeting or saying “you’re welcome”. Costa Rican people understand life and know that good things come with kidness. If you add lush jungle and pristine coastline you have the perfect ingredients for your next trip. Whether you’re looking for adventure or […]

Which journey did I like most?

Posted on Monday December 30th, 2019Wednesday August 26th, 2020by Simone
Top vulcano crater Mt Bromo Java Indonesia

If I don’t include the countries I drove through with my parents when I was a little girl, I have visited 22 countries so far. That sounds like a lot but compared to the average digital nomad, I am just an amateur. Nevertheless, I’ve been lucky enough to be able to tick off a lot […]

Why Cape Town is such a cool city

Posted on Wednesday August 28th, 2019Friday July 30th, 2021by Simone
Sunset Camps Bay Cape Town South Africa

It is hard to tell what the coolest city in the world is, but Cape Town sure as hell comes close. From mountain views to white sandy beaches. From historical sights to a vibrant and colourful culture. From inspiring street art to culinary delights you can’t compete with. The mother city simply has it all. […]

My Back To Nature adventure

Posted on Saturday May 4th, 2019Monday November 16th, 2020by Simone
Back To Nature adventure Sumatra Indonesia

Medan, the capitol of the second largest island of Indonesia. It’s where my 4 week adventure started last summer. Did you know that Sumatra is the fifth largest island in the world and that my great-grandfather was born there? Well, now you do. You probably already heard that the orangutan calls this island its home. […]

Why you shouldn’t skip Jakarta

Posted on Wednesday November 7th, 2018Tuesday July 27th, 2021by Simone
Old Batavia square Java Indonesia

Funny enough I could only find a few positive blogs about Jakarta when I was preparing for my trip. Most people seem to escape the city as soon as they set foot in the capitol. It would be too crowded, noisy and very dirty. Moreover, it had too little to offer. Boy, how nothing turned […]

The countryside of Viñales

Posted on Wednesday January 31st, 2018Monday November 16th, 2020by Simone
Viñales village classic car

Although I can not imagine that you would ever get enough of Havana, I do have to admit that Cuba is more than just its vibrant capitol city. You’re probably thinking about a white beach with clear blue water by now drinking coco loco’s all day. Yes, that is also Cuba but there is more. […]

Cuba: where to stay?

Posted on Wednesday December 13th, 2017Monday November 16th, 2020by Simone
Cuban home stay casa particular Centro Habana

‘Mi casa es su casa’. In other words: long live the casa particulares. They’re the Cuban version of a bed & breakfast. Literally translated to ‘private homes’. That’s right! Spending the night at a locals house is an absolute must for a visit to the island. The service at most casas is exceptional. For an […]

How Havana stole my heart

Posted on Thursday October 12th, 2017Tuesday July 27th, 2021by Simone
classic streetview in Centro Habana Cuba

Havana is overwhelming, lively, complex, mysterious, colorful, vibrant and the list goes on. I haven’t been to any other city as interesting or unique as this one. From the moment you leave the airport – which is an experience in itself – you will be enchanted by its charismatic appearance, its passionate personality and its […]

'Serenity comes when you trade expectations for acceptance'.. 
..or after waking up in the middle of the night to take an ice cold shower, climb up a mountain hill to witness the sun rise when it's 5 degrees out. Life ain't perfect but this particularly moment came pretty fucking close 📸💕⛰
