l On the Way to French Polynesia: Hongkong’n’Macao Hongkong, 8th January It’s early morning, we’re in 1 of Manila’s airport hotels. A lousy breakfast – and off we are. Just a 10′ walk to the airport.

Palawan, said to be the most beautiful island of the Philippines, then on to Cebu and Bohol in the Visayas. A journey a bit affected by amazing overtourism in certain areas.
From Swizzyland’s harsh winter to the hot’n’humid Philippines. A month later than planed – bullshit happens. After a short stop in Manila, it’s on to Busuanga Island for sun, sea’n’snorkeling. What else could it be.
Helsinki, Finland´s proud capital, then a long ferry ride to Germany, and endless km before finally reaching Swizzyland.
Finland – very different from Norway. Now it’s mainly about hikes thru endless forests, making friends with the mozzies, and checking out a few towns along the way.
Our journey thru Europe´s northernmost part. Tromsø – the last big city, the famous North Cape – basically a huge parking lot on a cliff, and the peninsulas on the west and east of it – absolutely amazing landscapes and way more interesting.
Our visit to Norway’s northern islands: Lofoten, Andøya, and Senja. A journey thru amazing landscapes, forgotten villages, places overrun by overtourism at its worst, and quiet corners barely touched by visitors.
