In a country with as many lakes as Sweden, it naturally couldn't take long before we came across a waterfall. And so today, on our first full day in Sweden, we did. There were two parking lots here, one below the Hallamölla Mill and one a little further away past it. Since there was a free spot right

Just north of the village of Torna Hällestad lies the Prästaskogen nature reserve, known primarily for its many magically twisted dwarf beeches, which inspire the imagination and revive the belief in trolls and elves. The name Trollskogen is easy to understand when you see the fantastical beeches, whose

Our second stop of the day, after a short bus ride, took us to the Baths of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty, who, according to mythology, is said to have bathed in the basin of this grotto. The grotto was part of a botanical garden, so a beautifully landscaped hiking trail took us a short

Today, another eventful day awaited us, beginning with a pick-up from our hotel at 8:15 a.m. This was followed by an approximately one-and-a-half-hour drive through the Paphos region, which offers the "xenos" (Greek for guest) a particularly colorful landscape. We continued on to the Akamas Peninsula

The next day was free again, so we could finally sleep in. Of course, for us, that only meant sleeping until 7:30 a.m., when the little boy woke up on his own. We were then able to enjoy breakfast in peace outside on the hotel terrace in the sun, which was getting brighter every day.

After our hike, we visited Omodhos, one of the most beautiful wine-producing villages in the region. During our village tour, we first visited the Timios Stavros Monastery, which looks somewhat inconspicuous from the outside, so it wasn't immediately recognizable as a monastery. Christians were persecuted

We began this day again with a hearty breakfast at the hotel, as we had a lot planned for today! First, we took a bus ride of about 50 minutes to the starting point of our hike to the Caledonian Falls.
The trail was of moderate difficulty, with several stream crossings on slippery rocks, which our junior

Today would have been our first day off. But since the kayaking tour on the first day had literally fallen through, we had to get up early again today. We were picked up again at 8:30 a.m. and taken to the coast to "Tripiti" beach (in Greek, "full of holes," also known as Zapalo beach), where experienced

Gestern Abend bei Ed Sheeran gewesen. Mega Konzert. Mangelhafte Planung. Zum Positiven: Wir durften schon um 18 Uhr auf unseren Parkplatz ab 19 Uhr... Aber dann: Shuttlebus zum Stadion gab es gar nicht, die der Messe fuhren dafür leer an uns vorbei. Letztendlich 4 km hin und zurück gelaufen. Für mich nicht so das Problem. Doch mit einem Vater, der schon 3 Herzinfarkte hatte und nicht mehr so mobil ist, hätte man sich eine bessere Planung gewünscht. Abreise dann ein Riesenchaos. Eine Fahrbahn für den Gegenverkehr offengehalten, der aber weiter vorne von der Polizei eh gesperrt war. Irgendwann hielt sich auch keiner mehr an die Spursperrung, wodurch die eigentlich linke Spur komplett zum Stocken kam, weil die beim Anblick des Polizeimotorrads dann dochwieder alle zurück auf die nicht gesperrten Spuren wollten. 45 Minuten für 1 Kilometer. Das war viel besser bei anderen Events ohne Zwangsparkticket durch die Event Mobilty.

Äspet is a nature reserve and bird sanctuary near the Swedish town of Åhus, located in the middle of the bird migration route between Öland and Falsterbo. This makes it an ideal bird sanctuary. Up to 1,000 wading birds of up to 20 different species can gather here. It's no doubt that this attracts amateur
