Take Off from Zurich
20 mei 2024, Zwitserland ⋅ ⛅ 9 °C
4:40AM Alarm Clock, ride 20 mins later and now I'm at the airport waiting for Luke to buy locks for our suitcases because he's strangely more paranoid than I am.
Santo Domingo
20 mei 2024, Dominicaanse Republiek ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C
We arrived in Santo Domingo, 32 degrees after a short stop in Madrid. Our air bnb is right next to a cemetery and our dinner took so long to be served that it came cold. At least the weather was warm,Meer informatie
Santo Domingo Day 2
21 mei 2024, Dominicaanse Republiek ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

Las Terrenas
27–29 mei 2024, Dominicaanse Republiek ⋅ ☁️ 27 °C
We rode the "bus" (a large van packed with too many people) 4.5h through the pampas. Now, we're in an overprized bungalow in a cute place, not far from the most beautiful beach + sunset I have everMeer informatie
Samana
29–30 mei 2024, Dominicaanse Republiek ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C
We left Las Terrenas with a cab instead of a bus as originally planned (it cost 48 dollars instead of 9) mostly cause of the friendly cab driver and his arguments about the car being more comfortableMeer informatie
Sabana de la Mar
30 mei 2024, Dominicaanse Republiek ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C
Instead of taking another bus or Taxi, we decided to change things up by travelling via boat. So, at 11am we took the boat from Samana to Sabana del Mar. We were asked by a Dominican tourist-shark:Meer informatie
Miches

Antigua Day 2
4 juni 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C
Antigua has me excited for more. It's a city rich in history and we did a ton of walking today. We saw two monasteries, the famous Guatemalan "Arco de Santa Catalina" and a pile ofMeer informatie
Chichicastenango
5–6 jun. 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

It probably took us around an hour longer but at least it was fun and bumpy! Bet we saw more sides fromMeer informatie
San Pedro La Laguna

Lanquin
8–9 jun. 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C

Sempuc Champey
9–10 jun. 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
Today we decided to leave the dirt-road driving to the professionals with 4-wheel cars. So, like the locals, we took a pick-up truck (we stood on the loading area) and I had to make sure my lensesMeer informatie
San Benito, Flores
10–12 jun. 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C
Another long drive but with a twist: we had to take a "ferry" to cross a river they might as well have just built a bridge to pass. But, alas, as most strange things are, it was an adventure andMeer informatie
Tikal
11–12 jun. 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 29 °C
WHEEEEE! Finally, we have arrived *insert drum-roll* in TIKAL, where I had the pleasure of realizing a longterm dream of mine of seeing Mayan temples. And boy was it magnificent! It used to be one ofMeer informatie
Puerto Barrios
12–16 jun. 2024, Guatemala ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

Albuquerque, New Mexico Day 2
18 juni 2024, Verenigde Staten ⋅ 🌙 28 °C
Petroglyphs are pictures carved into stone, and in Boca Negra Canyon they've been around for 400-500 years. This is what fascinates me about the US: it is vast and rich in history. And it's historyMeer informatie
