Southern Norway
Oh Norway, you are and you will always be my favorite country in Europe. My recent trip up there confirmed it once again. After struggeling with an broken ankle this whole summer, not be able to do shit, I was pretty bummed. Of course my traveling plans had to be shifted, too. Eventually it has been a blessing to be forced to wait with traveling until the end of summer. These fall colors and the mood was just yummie! Although I'm not completley recovered from my ankle injury I couldn't hold still and hiked one or the other trail – don't tell my physical therapist.
Isle of Skye
This is the third time in a row my longest friend Steffen and I met somewhere in the world in the first week of October to travel together. This time we rented a car in Glasgow and drove up north to the Isle of Skye – a place I wanted to visit and explore for such a long time. The island and Scotland in general blew my mind and exceeded my expecations in ways I couldn't imagine. These rough and wide open sceneries combined with the mountains and the sea are so beautiful and exactly the enviroment I feel home. Not to mention all these nice hearty scotish people. Now that I know I can handle driving on the "wrong" side of the road I will definetly go back there with my beloved van. Crossing that place from my bucket list felt great. There's nothing more satisfying then aiming for goals and actually reach them.
Switzerland
This was my fourth or fifth time in Switzerland and once again it did not dissappoint me. Even though the weather was actually a bit too good and it was kinda hard to take pictures in harsh sunlight, we were lucky to explore and capture many great sceneries! My buddy Jan just recently bought a drone, which we tested intensivley on this trip so stay tuned for a new video soon.
Meck-Pomm
Last week I've been solo traveling through Brandenburg and along German coastlines to explore several islands around the baltic sea such as Rügen, Hiddensee and Zingst. On my way back home I stopped at my brothers and my niece, who live close by Warnemünde. Even though summer holidays in most German states were almost over I somehow ended up in very crowded places so I decided to just hike through the local national parks. Best choice ever! Since most people spent their time at all the popular beaches, I've been pretty much by myself in the parks and could completely focus on what surrounds me. I really enjoyed travelling alone. It boosts my mind because there are absolutely no distractions. But on the other hand, sharing great places and wonderful moments with someone helps me to remember these times on the road even more. I'm glad I can do both and if I really wanna go somewhere I will just go and be not depend on someone. But to be honest to myself. It's not about proofing the world how lonley I can be. Other people bring with them compromises but who said that compromises are generally a bad thing? People can inspire you, push you and make those times together in a new place even more exciting and significant.
Daniel & Juliette
After I shot Daniel and Juliette for their engagement last year, I also had the pleasure to attend and capture the actual wedding. The ceremony and party took place in some kind of wood glade in a typical german countryside with a pond and a cornfield near by. Once the ceremony was over, the three of us jumped over a fence like kids on a little childhood adventure and vanished in the fields for a shooting...
