Reynisfjara (Iceland) was stunning! Incredible basalt formations, puffins, foamy waves…and a part of the beach we couldn’t visit. The reason for this was that recently, big boulders and smaller rubble had fallen down from the cliff above, as you can see in this photo. And even when we were there, some rocks came tumbling down.ContinueContinue reading “Falling to pieces”

The tale of an early morning and three breakfasts
Thursday July 11th 2019 My alarm went off at 2.30 am, way too early for anything other than sleeping. But, I’m on a mission, because today, my holiday starts!

I hopped on a night bus and then anotherContinueContinue reading “The tale of an early morning and three breakfasts”
Branching out

And I have no idea why, because it’s such a lovely place! The weather had cooled down a bit and it was windy, but still lovelyContinueContinue reading “Queenstown Gardens”
Fudge & burgers
Ah, good ‘ol Queenstown. I still don’t know what to make of this place. I enjoy it, I like it, there is heaps to do, but it’s also very party-ish and touristy. Still worth a visit, I’d say and that’s exactly what mom and I did after driving down from Wanaka. There was a marketContinueContinue reading “Fudge & burgers”
