    Wind!

    12 gennaio, Portogallo ⋅ 🌬 15 °C

    Today was a windy day, and since the wind was coming directly from the sea, it was cloudless here and cloudy at the top and behind the mountains.

    The waves were spectacular, and of course I didn't miss the opportunity to spend some time down by the sea.

    Yesterday I considered going back to the Piscina Natural Ponta da Ferraria, but when I woke up this morning it was clear that I couldn't go in the sea with this storm.

    So today I cruised around the island.    Leggi altro

    Piscina Natural Ponta da Ferraria

    11 gennaio, Portogallo ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    The Piscina Natural Ponta da Ferraria is a natural seawater pool fed by thermal springs. Therefore, the water there is a few degrees warmer than pure seawater.

    You have to go swimming at low tide, otherwise there is a risk of being swept out of the seawater pool by the waves so they provide lines, which are stretched crosswise from each side to the others, providing a good grip.

    Beside the natural basins there is also an official thermal bath with a spa, café, and massage services. However, only the café is currently open, as the road is blocked by a landslide since four months and therefore closed. So the pool looks like a lost place at the moment.

    Because of the closed road you have to walk down and, of course, back up again. Going down takes about 15 minutes, going up takes 20 minutes.

    So the whole thing is more of an adventurous story and not just lazing around in a thermal bath.

    So let's go!    Leggi altro

    Mosteiros

    11 gennaio, Portogallo ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    My little house is in Mosteiros.
    Mosteiros is mostly situated on a flat peninsula by the sea, with a small part perched atop the cliffs.

    One of the small houses on the right side of the picture, in the middle, is mine.

    Mosteiros has a fishing harbor and a black sand beach, but the natural seawater pools, where you can swim, are particularly interesting.

    The sea is a bit too cold for that right now. However, you can drive for five minutes to a spot where hot thermal water flows into the sea, so it's a few degrees warmer there.

    Anyways it's a very impressive coast line.    Leggi altro

    Fruit

    11 gennaio, Portogallo ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    My landlady did the shopping for my first dinner and breakfast. What a fantastic service! 😍

    I've already decided what I'll have for the next two months: pineapple, freshly squeezed orange juice, and muesli with baby bananas. For sure I brought my electric orange juice press 🤩.

    The fruits are awesome here! ❤️    Leggi altro

    Good morning

    11 gennaio, Portogallo ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    Good morning!

    I arrived safely yesterday at 8 pm and slept very well. It's drizzling a bit this morning, but that's not a problem since I unpacked first thing.

    Now I'm slowly settling in with a tea and have explored the garden a little. This is the first impressions I'm sending you. Of course, many more will follow.

    The weather forecast looks good for the next few days; I'm confident I won't have too much rain, that I'll be able to explore the area, and especially visit the hot springs in the sea.

    When I compare the weather to Hamburg, I think once again that I made the right decision 🥳.    Leggi altro

    Hamburg Airport

    10 gennaio, Germania ⋅ ☁️ -3 °C

    I have never been to the airport as early as today in my life. 😂

    Everything was relaxed, the buses and trains in Hamburg were all running normally and had no delays more or less.

    So far, only 3 flights have been cancelled today, at 6:00 and 6:05 because the plane was not on site and one later from Munich because the snow is now arriving there.

    So I am confident that everything will be very relaxed, that I will land in Lisbon for the intermediate stop and then continue to Ponta Delgada.

    Hot springs, I'm getting closer! 😍    Leggi altro

    I'm wondering...

    9 gennaio, Germania ⋅ 🌬 -4 °C

    My luggage is ready and the apartment is clean. The weather is rough and blizzard Elli brings a lot of snow ❄️, low temperatures 🥶 and storm 🌬️. I'm wondering if my flight will leave tomorrow...

    18 days to go

    23 dicembre 2025, Germania ⋅ 🌙 2 °C

    It's almost time, then I'm off again – for two months – another 1.5 months of workation and two weeks of vacation spread out over time.

    This time I've opted for the middle of the Atlantic, for wild nature; I just had two months of white sandy beaches with endless sunshine and beach bars. Now it's crater lakes, green mountains, and hot springs.

    Now I will spend Christmas in front of the roaring wood stove, slide comfortably into the new year, and slowly start getting everything in order from the 5th onwards.    Leggi altro
