One night in Sahara

Wednesday, November 16, 2011

It took about 10 hours from Marrakech (including two pit stops!) to reach Sahara. We were approaching Sahara from Zagora. From there, we ride camel for about 1.5 hours. We were just at "the gate" of the Sahara Desert. Over night in a Berber tent was amazing. The Sahara desert is one of nature’s wonders and has always mystified people with its vast stretches of sand. It covers around 9,000,000 square kilometers and the overall area is as large as the continental United States. It also has the reputation of being the world’s largest hot desert! 38°C is just a normal..

turn 30 and not married (yet!)

Haha! I have long wanted to perpetuate this unique tradition. But just a few weeks ago accomplished.  
So here goes the story, if a young German boy aged 30 years and unmarried, there is a unique tradition by wearing a costume like a suit. This man should sweep hundreds of bottle caps that deliberately dissipated at the front door of the church. This tradition is said to have lasted a long time and not only in Bremen, but in most cities in Germany.
So enjoy the pictures!

Venezia - the floating city

Thursday, March 3, 2011

Well, this is a shame. I just have time to post our travel story trip to Italy. I have planned and designed this holiday months before my wife came from Indonesia. We just got lucky because Ryan Air launched a promo only 7 € to Venice. In total, I paid about 60 € go and back for all three of us.

So here the story goes…

On Thursday 17.02.2011, Ryan Air brought us to Venice in time. Approximately one hour 30 minutes we landed in Treviso, a connecting airport to Venice. From here we took a bus heading to Venice with ticket costs 5 €/ person. About an hour finally arrived in Venice.

SO here we were, on the Venice city. A city which was built on 117 small islands, about 150 canals flow through the city centre, and about 400 bridges spanning over the channel. Here you MUST use your foot, because all the city's main sights are within walking distance of each other. Or you can use Pavaretto or water bus.
