Johanna went to her very first Halloween-Party as a little pumpkin. There were a lot of kids and as it was organized, all the "scary" kids went to over ten shopkeepers and - of course - got lots of candy and sweets. At some point, her bag was full and all energy consumed, so we enjoyed a little break to go through the treats-bag.

Jordan's vast and diverse landscapes offer adventurers a treasure trove of natural wonders, none more thrilling than the country's dramatic wadis. These river valleys, often carved over centuries, provide hikers with unique trails that lead through narrow gorges, over rugged terrain, and into breathtaking oases hidden deep within the desert. Whether you're an experienced trekker or a casual nature lover, Jordan's wadis—such as Wadi Mujib, Wadi Rum, and Wadi Dana—present a one-of-a-kind...

Starting at 5am and crossing the finish line at 7am - it was a very comfortable run through the empty Downtown of Amman. In a calm state, as I have never seen it before. Funnily enough, some folks were still (yes from the previous night) sitting in cafes and restaurants. So the motivational cheering along the road was secured.

In this trip I visited the country of Malaysia. Highlight was the excursion to the Jungle and hiking in it even by night. But also the city-experiences are highly recommended: by bike through the countryside of the Red City (Malaka), exploring the town of Kota Kinabalu, and navigating through the fancy capital of Kuala Lumpur. Read all about Malaysia in my blog articles: *Kuala Lumpur and Cameroon Highlands here *Kota Kinabalu and the beautiful beaches here *Jungle experience and trekking in...

Being in Kuala Lumpur it is not clear at all in what country you are...There is little India, Chinatown and many other nationalities, who are adding there culture into the big melting pot. Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia's vibrant capital, is known for its diverse population, including significant Indian and Chinese communities. During the British colonial period in the 19th and early 20th centuries, the British brought in large numbers of Chinese and Indian laborers to work in Malaysia. The Chinese...

I had one dream when planning the Malaysia Trip: The real rainforest. And in Sabah it became true. It was quite a journey....another flight from Kota Kinabalu. A 2-h bus ride. Deeper into the jungle by boat. And the last distance was covered by walking. And finally the destination: Tungog Lodge in plain nature...no running water. No electricity. No Internet. 3 days upcoming with hikes and safaris and boat trips. Here are some photos from this amazing stay.

In this post I share a few information about Kota Kinabalu and the region around. There are beautiful beaches and I chose it mainly, in order to escape the heavy rainy season on Langkawi Island, where usually everybody is going to for beaches. However, what should I say.....I had rain every single day, too. Haha :)

Landing in Kuala Lumpur, I skipped the capital for now and drove straight to Malacca. Malacca, known locally as Melaka, is a historical city in Malaysia renowned for its rich cultural heritage and vibrant history. Situated on the west coast of the Malay Peninsula, it played a pivotal role in the maritime trade routes of Southeast Asia. Founded in the early 15th century by Parameswara, a Sumatran prince, Malacca rapidly grew into a bustling trading port, attracting merchants from China, India,...

Usually I don´t share about work-related topics on my blog, but this training deserves an exception. Maan is 2.5h away from the capital Amman. The self-care workshop in Maan was facilitated by Mrs. Aya and Mrs. Wejdan and it has been a great success. The moderators lead the participants through interactive exercises, drawing techniques, and lively discussions. Among others, the women talked about how to handle difficult emotions and what are the factors of success stories in life.

I made it! Running at the lowest point of earth, the Dead Sea. Wonderful views along the road, 31° C, and lots of fun. It is my second time to participate and yes, I got a little bit faster than last year :)
