Time seems to run - only 30 days to go till my adventure starts.
Yet, I am not spending my time planning and preparing at home but went in a business trip to wonderful Barcelona. Meetings, Mobile World Congress and dinner invites kept me busy until 29th February and now it’s time to relax.
Today: a beautiful sunny day in Barcelona, I spent strolling through this amazing city, slept in the beach und had great Spanish food - äh, not Spanish food ;) and Great Ramen!
So looking forward to trying the real thing in Japan very soon!Leia mais

What would life be without some get away now and then… I know, I’ll have a lot of time for get-away very very soon. Still, the annual skiing trip couldn’t be skipped. And what should I say: it was a blast!
Sauna at Aqua dome (definitely not the nicest place I’ve ever been but quite relaxing after all)
Delicious summit dinner at Austria’s highest gourmet restaurant IceQ - amazing
Käsespätzle, Kaspressknödelsuppe, Spinatknödel, Germknödel, Apfelstrudel, Kaiserschmarrn… Hütten-Food all the time!
And quite some km’s on the slopes ♥️ loving it! And the best crowd to have a great time :)Leia mais

From Chaos to Time off
29 de março, Alemanha ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
What a week, it seemed like an unsolvable challenge to pack for a trip like this! So what do you pack when you travel for four months, to four countries, in four seasons? Not an easy task and I sure have forgotten stuff but I think it’s not going to be a big issue!
So to start my sabbatical the right way before it really starts, and I head off for far away destinations, I’ll be visiting Hamburg, the Harry Potter Theatre, the Hamburg dome and all the other great places there to celebrate with the girls into this exciting phase that’s now ahead.
I’ll keep you postedLeia mais

Finally the day is there - but it still doesn’t feel like I am leaving my Bonn home for four months now :)
I feel like a donkey with all the luggage - and before I leave for the real Japanese cherry blossom 🌸 I get to see some of Bonn’s cherry blossom season 😍🌸
And this cutie is joining me …
Off it goes to Frankfurt. - obviously, as normal in Germany, it starts with a delayed train 😂
And call me a Lucky Cookie: all flight is full but the place next to me is free on my long-haul flight to Seoul! With self-mixed bibimbap on the plane.
And After a two Hour layover on this obviously Asian Airport with its autonomous vehicles and traditional parades, off for the last leg of my trip to Japan ♥️
And finally there ♥️Leia mais

My first day Tokyo Baby
3 de abril, Japão ⋅ 🌧 14 °C
Tokyo, finally - after a rough first night, we headed off to discover this beautiful city. Starting at the amazing shibuja crossing with the seemingly efficient pedestrian and traffic flow (by the way it doesn’t look half as impressive as on the instagram posts), walked through the little park close by to get a good glimpse of Neiji Shrine, had amazing food, admired the 3D cat board and so much more … wow it’s just an amazing cityLeia mais

Tokyo is just so exciting to just tell the story in 1 blogpost.
So, on my second day here, Lena and headed for the Tsukiji fish market and
- after stumbling into a traditional Japanese wedding by accident at Tsukiji Honganji (unfortunately no photos allowed - had a little “Sashimi, egg, Kobe and Wagyu beef breakfast and did some souvenir shopping.
Then off to the tea ceremony - we learnt a lot about japanese Sencha, Matcha and Gyokuro. Yam! Temple ceremony, Tokyo Tower and another Round at Shibuya crossing before Sushi Dinner :)Leia mais

Off to Kyoto - Day 1
6 de abril, Japão ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C
Today it’s my first ride in the Shinkansen - I’m taking the Tokaido-Sanyo Shinkansen that brings me to Kyoto, which would be a 6+ hours drive - in just 2:12hrs - right on time! And apparently I’ve booked a seat with Fuji view. Unfortunately it was hidden behind clouds. Maybe I get a chance in the way back.
And I started off sight seeing right away. A little temple for money washing, Nijo castle with its amazing golden wall posters, cherry blossoms 🌸 everywhere - it’s at full blossom here in Kyoto.
Gion - without seeing a geisha by millions of tourists - for some food, and cherry blossom weeping festival in Maruyama Koe
There is so much to see here, I really don’t know where to start. And time’s running 🙈Leia mais

Go with the flow - Day 2 in Kyoto 🌸
7 de abril, Japão ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C
After my first night in a capsule hotel - which was surprisingly pleasant :) - I now head off for my second day in Kyoto. And there’s a lot in my list…
Starting off with wandering through the huge compound of wonderful Murasakino Daitokujicho, then visiting the Imamya Shrine and queuing for real Japanese grilled rice cakes at that cute little restaurants for breakfast - I just had to try them!
Next: Takeisao (Kenkun) shrine - also beautifully peaceful with just a handful of locals
And then off the the more lively, touristy Kinkaku-ji Temple & Ryoan-ji Temple with their gardens and cherry blossoms 🌸
Followed by Arashiyama bamboo forest.
And finally diner at a hip fast food place.Leia mais
