The end of a long journey

First things first: Since last Sunday I was home again!




After three exciting months on the road, unfortunately I had to bury the dream of a big journey, because my money and energy reserves were near the bottom. Although I had the trip through Russia (keyword: "Trans-Siberian Railway") is very excited, but I just felt that it would not make sense right now. Some things in life simply can not force ...

from Vilnius in Lithuania, I made myself so back on the long journey to Austria. In Berlin I made it a little stopover at meiner Cousine Johanna, die dort zur Zeit gerade ein Praktikum absolviert.




Gemeinsam mit Johanna zog ich zwei Tage lang durch die deutsche Hauptstadt, wobei es für mich (trotz zweier früherer Berlin-Besuche) viel Neues zu sehen gab. Zum Beispiel machten wir eine Sightseeing-Fahrt auf der Spree. Dabei konnten wir beide die Stadt von einer ganz neuen Seite erleben.








Außerdem bekam ich endlich die Gelegenheit, den Reichstag bzw. die moderne Glaskuppel auf dem Dach zu besichtigen. Zwar mussten Johanna und ich eine ganze Weile lang für diese Attraction queue, but the wait has been worth it. Not only because the giant construction is incredibly simple but also because it has a great view from the top of Berlin. was








A special highlight it then on the last weekend, as that is in many government buildings an "Open Day" took place, which we of course could not be missed. And so we moved from the Federal Office for the Federal Press Office and even visited the ARD studio.

Here are some impressions of this eventful day:










On Sunday morning, I then took the ICE train to Ulm, where I in a regional express Switching to Lindau. From there went to a regional Vorarlberg, and at eight clock I was back in Altach. After I directed my return home ready for the stage and surprised my family strong, I had to tell the same lot.




Finally I would like to thank all the readers of this blog thanks for the interest in my reports. This time it worked with the world tour not quite, but maybe I've woken up in one or the other of you the desire to travel.

In this sense, goes out and traveled the world, for

"The most dangerous worldview is the worldview of those who have not looked at the world." (Alexander von Humboldt)


That's all Folks!

How To Find Free Vintage Maps

The Baltic Combo

After I had explored in the past three months, Scandinavia thoroughly, I set out late last week on the way to the Baltic States. My first stop was the Estonian capital of Tallinn, only three hours by ferry from Helsinki is located. The historic Hanseatic city has one of the best preserved medieval old towns in Europe, as you can see on the pictures below.








Tallinn is really a beautiful city that is also culturally (and linguistically) to expect more of the Scandinavian, as the Baltic region. This confirmed me Deniss, couch-surfing one of my many friends that I kennengerlent in Stockholm and Tallinn have met again. Together we marched through the city and He showed me some very interesting sights outside of the center.

Deniss Here you see before a Russian monument which was erected in memory of a serious boat accident:




After my visit to Estonia, the journey continued to Latvia. The capital city Riga had earlier also to the Hanseatic Empire, which I was again able to enjoy a wonderful old town.




Although presented der Charme Rigas nicht ganz an jenen von Tallinn heran, doch zu sehen und erleben gab es auf jeden Fall mehr als genug. Besonders der Besuch im Okkupationsmuseum war ein Highlight, auch wenn die dortige Austellung über die sowjetische und deutsche Besatzungzeit ziemlich erschütternd war. Schon allein die Architektur des Gebäudes lässt auf die bittere Vergangenheit schliessen:




Abschliessend stand noch der Besuch der litauischen Hauptstadt Vilnius auf dem Programm. Obwohl ich im Vorfeld recht wenig über die Stadt in Erfahrung bringen konnte, wurde ich nach meiner Ankunft positiv überrascht. Litauen wirkte nämlich im Grossen und Ganzen nicht so modern (und westlich) wie seine two Baltic neighbors, but at least the center of Vilnius has to offer.








addition, the city has a very hilly location, so there are some beautiful views. On one of these hills there are three white crosses, which have become over time also become a symbol against the Soviet occupation.




All in all I liked the Baltic states, even if it looks like there away from the centers sometimes rather dreary. I can only recommend that you make yourselves an idea of \u200b\u200bthese countries, especially while they are still reasonably affordable.

Comvertible 10/22 In Bullpup

the way in the south of Finland

The more I traveled to Finland to the south, the greater were the cities and the hotter the weather. When I arrived in Tampere, the second largest city in the country, ruled for nearly 30 degrees in the shade. I am therefore very pleased that my couch-surfing host Otto me right from the bus station and picked my way to his (cool) was flat. After I had put there my heavy luggage, we made our way into a small park where we approved a refreshing ice cream.




then led me Otto through the city center to a lookout tower from which had made us a magnificent view of Tampere:




Tampere is a city with a large industrial past. Over the years, most of the old factory buildings into restaurants, museums and shopping centers have been converted. The former reputation as the "Manchester of Finland" is therefore not really applicable. Nowadays, the city of many attractions, as evidenced by the following pictures:




Before I went on my way to Helsinki, I made a little trip to Turku. The port city on the southwestern tip of Finland has long been the capital of the country and has so much history. Path along the river as I strolled through the city, I was able to convince me in detail.






were an eye-catcher also those girls which is a beach volleyball match at the river bank dueled. Who was interested at the sight nor who won in the end?




On my last day I visited Turku or the medieval castle from the 13th Century. On a (deutschsprachigen!) guidance I got everything about the past of the fortress to hear.








On Monday I was at last - in Helsinki - Finland after almost four weeks. I had previously received much praise for the city to the ears and Helsinki held the reputation stood. In my many walks around the center of the Finnish capital was followed by a highlight on the other. The Cathedral, the Sibelius Monument and the Orthodox Cathedral of tourists make the heart of every beat.




also concerned that my accommodation in Helsinki, I could not complain. At the end of my adventure Finland I was again hit by a couch-surfing friend added.




I also took a day a Trip to Suomenlinna, a small island off the town that once housed a mighty fortress. Unfortunately, today only the ruins of the castle are visible, but the whole is impressive nonetheless.




On the way back to the port town, I was then a close look at those giant ferries throw that travel to Helsinki from the entire Baltic Sea. If you look at the tiny ferry from these giants, you can get it right to do with fear.




switch also next week, when it is said again: News from the bearded globetrotter!
