more from my trip to the upper engadin. going by bus from pontresina it takes about an hour to get to sils-maria, where nietzsche spent the best years of his life. he rented a room in an old house (slide no. two) from where he went on long walks around the lake silvaplana, where he found the indpiration to write „zarathustra“. the house he lived in is a museum, but you can rent an affordable room in the basement (shared bathroom, shared kitchen) and feel close to nietzsche. either way, walking along the lake is asesome and sils-maria is a cute village. pay s visit to the hotel waldhaus, where numerous artists spent their vacations and where claude chabrol shot a movie. disclaimer: i was invited on this press trip by the swiss tourism board. #switzerland #silsmaria #nietzsche #engadin #upperengadin #lakesilvaplana #dametraveler

pontresina, (upper) engadin, switzerland. last weekend i went on a trip to switzerland, to a charming village called pontresina in the upper engadin region. in case you do not know where pontresina is - st. moritz is nearby and i think you might have heard of that place. anyway, i stayed in pontresina and enjoyed the fresh alpine air, the food, the view and all the activities on the press trip (on invitation of @myswitzerlandde ) i cannot share the fresh air with you, so the view must do ;) #inlovewithswitzerland #switzerland #engadin #pontresina #alps #alplanguard #beautifuldestinations #dametraveler

miedzyzdroje/misdroy, poland. [werbung]. i‘m back home in berlin by now but in my mind i‘m still at the amber coast of the baltic sea, sitting on my balcony overviewing the beach or walking along the seashore from the hotel to „molo“, the pier, enjoying the late afternoon and early evening mood, inhaling the fresh slightly salty air… thanks a lot @amber.baltic.miedzyzdroje for the nice room and accomodation and thanks a lot @viennahousebywyndham for this great cooperation. #endlessexploration #paidpartnership #viennahousebywyndham #poland #miedzyzdroje #misdroy #vitaminsea #balticsea #dametraveler #pier #beachlife

misdroy, poland. [werbung] after visiting prague and the urban vienna house by wyndham in andel, i took another train ride to the baltic sea to spend some nights and days at the @amber.baltic.miedzyzdroje - a sea side hotel. or a beach hotel, whichever you prefer. again it was tempting to spend the days in the cosy room or sit on the balcony (every room has a balcony with sea view). instead i decided to go to the beach, first for a swim and afterwards for a walk along the sea side. lovely. // my visit to misdroy was part two of the paid partnership with @viennahousebywyndham #endlessexploration w/ #viennahousebywyndham #miedzyzdroje #poland #vitaminsea #balticsea #beach #beachlife

prague, czech republic. [werbung] it was tempting to stay at the hotel all day long, since i had such a lovely room at the vienna house andel‘s prague. but it was my first time visiting prague and therefore i went exploring the city. andel, or prague 5 is a partnering district of berlin neukölln. a good match as both districts are a good mix of traditional working class neighbourhood and gentrified areas. #neverstopexploring with @viennahousebywyndham #prague #andel #prague5 #streetphotography #dametraveler #czech #czechrepublic #travelphotography

prague, czech republic. last weekend i visited prague for the first time. of course i did pay all the „classics“ a visit but was most pleased by finding this gem: the cinema lucerna. it is in the neighbourhood of wenceslas square, hidden in the „pasaz lucerna“. watching a movie in this awesome theater was one of my highlights. [werbung] i visited prague due to a paid partnership with @viennahousebywyndham , staying, or should i say residing in the vienna house by wyndham andel‘s prague. #endlessexploration #prague #praha #czechrepublic #cinema #lucerna #accidentallywesanderson for @accidentallywesanderson

salzburg, austria. last weekend i visited salzburg, a charming little city, best known for mozart, the „jedermann“ play, narrow alleys and the festival, as well as numerous art galleries and the summer academy of arts, founded 70 years ago by oskar kokoschka. thanks a lot @visitsalzburg for inviting me to join this awesome press trip #visitsalzburg #salzburg #austria

rheinsberg castle, brandenburg. as mentioned in my previous post we did not spend all the time on board but visited amongst some other places this beautifully restored castle, where our guide herr fröhlich (his name would literally be translated as mister cheerful) gave us a (cheerful) tour and told us all we needed to know, not more and not less. i was invited on this press trip by @leboat.hausbootferien @noblekom and @visitbrandenburg #visitbrandenburg #leboatontour #rheinsberg #schlossrheinsberg #castle #1000seen #nobleontour #germany #ig_deutschland #photography #yachting #horizon4

ruppiner seenland, a beautiful lake district in germany‘s north east. best to be explored by boat. so that‘s what i did with a bunch of fellow adventurous wannabe sailors. we met at the marina wolfsbruch and after three hours of thorough instruction and a test drive with our instructor we were ready to drive our two yachts across brandenburg and mecklenburg vorpommern (no boating license is needed in those two states). we spent four days and three nights on our yachts, each of us with their own cabin and bathroom on board. we went to places like rheinsberg castle, fürstenberg, canow and zechlin, and what i enjoyed most was driving the boat, going through lockages (there were many), anchoring on a lake, and doing all that stuff you do on a ship - as a team. i was invited on this awesome press trip by @leboat.hausbootferien @noblekom and @visitbrandenburg #visitbrandenburg #ig_deutschland #leboatontour #nobleontour #germany #instaboating #boat #lakedistrict #nauticlife #aufnachmv #1000seen

herm island. a 15 minutes boat ride from st. peter port. a tiny island even more peaceful than guernsey, with a very picturesque coastal path leading around the island. we walked from the rosaire steps to shell beach. the crystal clear water was too cold to go for a swim, but it was nice to just get in with our feet and enjoy. jasmin aka @kosmopoetin decided to stay in herm and i can totally understand her. but we had to take the last ferry back to guernsey - and that was fine with us too ;) press trip on invitation by @visitguernsey #visitguernsey #thatislandfeeling #guernsey #channelislands #herm #hermisland

st. peter port, guernsey, the island‘s biggest town. a charming and rather quiet town with a busy harbour area though. places of interest are the hauteville house, where victor hugo spent his years of exile on the island, sausmarez manor and the farmer‘s market on a saturday morning or candie gardens. and many more. st. peter port is a walkable town with many streets, shops, views, cafés and restaurants to explore. i was invited on this #prtrip by @visitguernsey #visitguernsey #thatislandfeeling #guernsey #channelislands #cntraveler #stpeterport #dametraveler

#hellofrom guernsey. may has been a rather busy month of travelling so far, and right now i am in guernsey, a lovely channel island. stay tuned for more impressions to come, like st. peter port or the smallest chapel i have ever seen :) #presstrip on invitiation of @visitguernsey #thatislandfeeling #visitguernsey . #guernsey #coastline #viewfromabove #cntraveler #dametraveler
