Just because I am back in my home town it doesn't mean that travels are over. For many travelers I got back to reality - meaning the end of fun. But having a regular life doesn't have to be bad - not at all.
During my world trip one of my aims was to find a place where I would like to live for a couple of years. And only now, being back home, I finally realize and discover the beauty of that place. And what I also recognize is that each place wherever it is in the world offers advantages and disadvantages, chances and risks, happiness and disappointment.
Being back and living an ordinary life can be fascinating too if we organize it in an exciting way. That might include my everyday cycling trip to work through forests and fields, where I can be in nature smelling the blooming flowers of different kind of trees and bushes as well as watching some sleepy animals that cross my way. Many people declare me crazy cycling one hour to work and one hour back. But being in nature, taking this time for myself, satisfies me. After work I can decide to make a detour exploring other paths to the direction of my home town. And of course I got lost not just once. But this is fun, not stress.

So far we`ve visited Amsterdam, Frankfurt for the J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge, Traben-Trabach with its vineyards, Trier for a city tour, the Vulcan Eifel region, Paris, Texel an island in the Netherlands, Hamburg, …
Pictures will be posted soon.
