A journey beyond the city from Cuxhaven to Eckernförde. Get ready for an exciting ride!
It was a sunny day when we decided to explore the pristine nature right outside our doorstep.
Space-saving and lightweight packing is a fundamental skill for any globetrotter.
More openings are in sight and it's time to plan the first trips outdoors. If you want to spend a night at a campsite in beautiful surroundings in Germany without being woken up by slamming car doors or motorhome generators, only to find that the first thing you see is a wall of caravans, it's not so easy.
The next step: we set about developing the bags motorcycle bags.
It's time to reveal the secret: as we already announced in the first post(HEIMPLANET Roadtrip - The Preparation) about our road trip, we are on the road with motorbikes.
Every journey requires good preparation, especially if a road trip is planned - what do you take with you, what stays at home & what do you really need on the road?
The still unclimbed "Khawa Karpo" is one of the "eight holy mountains of Tibet".
Individual travel and being on the road simply never gets boring. Especially when travelling the fascinating and breathtaking West of the United States of America, which is literally bursting with epic natural monuments.
As summer drew to a close and temperatures began to drop, the forecast for this weekend looked surprisingly good, even for northern Europe.
The Tabernas desert is located in the south of Spain, 40 km north of Almeria. Almeria is known for its greenhouses that supply all of Europe with fruit and vegetables every season. This is made possible by the unusual climatic conditions in the region.
It's always hard to leave home, but once you do and you're out of your sweet, cushioned comfort zone, you come alive.
I grew up with an atlas in my hand. A globe on the shelf. Friends who travelled, stories of safaris in Zimbabwe, friends who went through the Berlin Wall, Māori hunting weapons hanging in the hallways.
For me, there are two different types of trips around the globe when I am away from home. The first type is work- or project-related trips like my three-week trip to Mauritius in March this year.
I've always liked the simplicity of Hiking Lines. No helicopter noise, first-hand impressions of the snow conditions on the slopes and - above all - the satisfaction of having earned your turns are simply priceless.
What are we itching for? Are we itching to go out and seek the unknown? What makes us want to leave everything behind?
My first memories of "travelling" were the early hours of the morning in Terminal 2 waiting to board our flight to our family in England. My parents' memory of travelling was a jet-lagged 3-year-old playing video games for 22 hours and then hearing about it for a week.
Nowadays everything is getting faster and faster. This project was an experiment to slow down life, or rather, to find a way to go slow and enjoy travelling to the fullest.
We landed early and drifted through the airport to the waiting car. The most unsuitable car for boards, tents, cameras and Icelandic roads.
You know that feeling when you crave a refreshing drink or ice cream on a hot day because of the burning sun, then finally get one and take a big gulp or bite, but realise at the same moment that it was way too much?
I love to travel. But what does "travel" really mean? For me, there is no right or wrong answer. Every journey consists of discoveries, encounters, the desire to immerse oneself in cultures, customs and people that are completely different from us. When you travel, you get to know others and through others, you get to know yourself.
For some, Joshua Tree National Park is a haven, for others it is a playground of ancient boulders and endless desert, and for still others it is simply a place of wonder and natural beauty. But in reality it is all that and much more.
Baja off the beaten track is not a place for everyone. Chapped lips, dusty hair, weeks of not showering, wind, dirt, sand. The dirt blows in your face, in your ears and in your eyes. Did I say wind?
A video and a blog post every week, plus a picture a day on his Instagram account. This is how Atila publishes his journey through New Zealand.
It all started with my old GDR moped "Schwalbe" from 1984 from East Germany, which I have owned for over 10 years and decided to restore the engine and actually everything under the bonnet.
Heimplanet, the German start-up from Hamburg known for The Cave tent, is an official partner of the Red Bull Storm Chase 2012.
I've been waiting for this call for weeks, almost months, and then finally my phone rings. Oliver, one of my best friends with whom I have spent a lot of time over the last few years, told me that we can finally put our plans to explore the western USA into action.
I have always found driving a car to be a cathartic experience. As a filmmaker, I often find myself living in my own head, trying to come up with a story arc over breakfast, discovering characters' motivations in the shower, or dreaming up scenarios at night.
The best thing about travelling with a Stand Up Paddle Board is that just by getting around with such a simple means of transport, you are suddenly able to make real contacts with the locals anywhere in the world.
Death is the cautionary maelstrom of cold. Ice and bitter ocean that crunches and flows. Many associate darkness with morbid thoughts and a depressing life.
With RAD TRAVELS we have fulfilled a dream: To travel the world. On our bikes. Because in our strange way of life, the ideal of happiness includes a bicycle and a few friends. That's basically all we need.
Sarah-Quita Offringa is 23 years old and already a 9-time windsurfing world champion. "Cabeibusha - the Curly Gem" is a documentary/video portrait of Sarah-Quita Offringa, produced by German filmmaker Julian Robinet.
