In our world today, there is an excellent chance you are addicted to technology. Trust me, I was too. Lucky for us, there is a solution to this, a way out. And it starts by admitting that we have a problem and then taking steps into limiting our phone use in our daily lives. And this starts with a mindful hike or a mindful walk. Learn all about what they are, why they are important and how you can implement them easily into your life.

We have a new side quest lined up and will hike into the far north of Germany, the "Holsteinische Schweiz" aka the Switzerland of the north. Once there, we will hike 3 unique trails alongside some iconic lakes in order to fulfil our hiking pass.

2025 is the year, I want to take my fitness and health back into my own hands. I used to love running, and I used to love racing and participating in events all around the world. So this year I am going all in. People my age either plan a family, get married, or sign up for a race. Well... I signed up for a half-marathon.

What started off as a great and sunny day on the TMB turned into our last real hiking day. Due to an injury, we had to bail out and return to Chamonix.

I saw all the Lord of the Rings movies and heard stories about how they rarely used CGI and instead filmed in live locations around the country. I could not believe it and wanted to see for myself if the rumors were true. Because in all honesty, which country could be this stunning? Oh, little old...

Getting lost in a big city is not as bad as getting lost in nature. At least in a city, we can always ask for help. But who do we ask when we are out and about and not a single person can be seen for miles and miles? We can ask our map, compass and nature around us. But how? Do you want to learn how to use a compass. This blog is for you.

The first time wild camping can be scary, especially when you have supportive friends who make you watch horror movies right before or listening to true-crime podcasts is your favorite pastime. Camping in the wild and being in nature is not only a way to clear the mind, to ground yourself, to step away from the daily stress but also a way to find your strength, your power and improve your skills and confidence.
