Wheeeeekend! 👯⁠ ⁠ 📍Baumwipfelpfad, Germa Wheeeeekend! 👯⁠ ⁠ 📍Baumwipfelpfad, Germany ⁠ ⁠ Childhood memories popping into my head accompanied by quirky giggling while rushing down this 55 meter high slide. Can I go again, please? ⁠ ⁠
Digital Nomad alert! 💥⁠ ⁠ Not too long ago Digital Nomad alert! 💥⁠ ⁠ Not too long ago I lived in Brazil. When I decided the best thing would be to quit my internship and return to Europe it was a hard decision, but I still think it was the right one. ⁠ ⁠ Giving up on my dream to work and live in South America really sucked. But why give up? During the peak of the pandemic I realised there are so many online professions. So why not give Digital Nomadhood a try? ⁠☺️ ⁠ I don't have the need to travel fulltime. I have a lot in The Netherlands to be grateful for. But what if I could live this lifestyle parttime and have the best of both worlds? I'm preparing myself to try something new, and it's super exciting! ⁠👌 ⁠ What is holding you back to work remotely?
Did someone say Malbec, oops, Mendoza? 🍷⁠ ⁠ Did someone say Malbec, oops, Mendoza? 🍷⁠ ⁠ 📍Potrerillos, Argentina ⁠ ⁠ While Mendoza is mostly famous for its delicious Malbec wine (I tasted many different Malbecs for you, it's really delicious) this area has more to offer than this famous fermented grape juice. ⁠ ⁠ Just 70 kilometers from Mendoza hidden in the Andes mountain is lake Potrerillos. This lake is surrounded by diverse landscapes, from vegetated peaks to mountain tops covered in snow. ⁠ ⁠ If you're lucky you might meet our furry friend Milka on the way. 🐾 ⁠ ⁠ Would you do a day trip or camping trip to lake Potrerillos? ⁠
If I didn't know any better I would think this sho If I didn't know any better I would think this shot was taken in South America! 🤩 ⁠ ⁠ 📍 Todtnauer, Germany ⁠ ⁠ Casually staring at a waterfall wearing my hiking boots and carrying my daypack and walking sticks... Can't get better than this. ⁠ Have you explored places close to home? What is your favourite place so far?
This weather makes me crave vitamin sea. 🌞🌊⁠😍 📍Boka Tabla, Curaçao
Be(come) fearless! ⁠🤸🏼‍♀️ ⁠ When I Be(come) fearless! ⁠🤸🏼‍♀️ ⁠ When I was younger I used to be afraid of many things. The silliest things were scary to me, such as spiders, being alone and swimming pools (not kidding🙈). ⁠ ⁠ While I got over most of my fears (still not a fan of swimming pools), there is one fear I can't seem to escape: my fear of heights. ⁠ ⁠ Over the years I've been pushing myself into situations to see if I can fight my fear of heights. Kind of literally, because one of the first pushes was by an Ecuadorian man off a 200 meter high bridge when I bungee jumped for the first (and probably last) time. ⁠ ⁠ So here's what I can tell you about being fearless by overcoming fears. ⁠ 1. Don't plan overcoming your fear, it will give you time to freak out. ⁠ 2. Just don't overthink it. ⁠ 3. Be surrounded with people you trust (I did not hold my first spider alone, no way!). ⁠ 4. Don't overdo it, take your time and tiptoe outside your comfort zone (bungee jumping was not tiptoeing, that was overdoing it). ⁠ 5. Accept that some things are just not for you. ⁠ I will probably never be great with heights, but I do enjoy activities that involve higher altitudes, such as hikes along panoramic views, canyoning and climbing parks. After that leap of faith off the bridge I took small steps. I turned my fear into a challenge and every time I gently push my boundaries I enjoy it more. 🌠 What is your biggest fear? And what do you do to overcome it?
Anyone got shades to protect my eyes from the gree Anyone got shades to protect my eyes from the green and blue? 😍⁠ ⁠ 📍Humantay lake, Peru ⁠ ⁠ Humantay lake is a glacier lake on the Salkantay route to Machu Picchu. This route takes 4 to 6 days, depending on the travel agency. You can also hike the route without a guide. When we arrived the lake seemed to be a fluorescent kind of blue. As you walk up the steep slopes surrounding the lake is colour seems to be getting brighter every step you take! ⁠😍 ⁠
Oops! Forgot my umbrella. ☂️⁠ ⁠ 📍Baños Oops! Forgot my umbrella. ☂️⁠ ⁠ 📍Baños, Ecuador ⁠ ⁠ One thing little people know about me is that I think waterfalls are the most beautiful thing in the world. I can stare at a waterfall for hours, listening to the sound of indescribable amounts of water falling down. ⁠ At Pailon del Diablo close to Baños I got to appreciate a water from a different angle: the back side! Where did you see your favourite waterfall? 😍⁠
Didn't I photograph this church already? ⛪⁠ ⁠ 📍Olinda, Brazil ⁠ ⁠ There are so many churches in Olinda that it's just hard to keep count. Every church is beautiful in its own way and I spent a lot of time photographing every church I came across. When I checked my photos at the end of the day I realised I photographed some of them twice... ⁠ Read more about visiting Olinda on ➡️ www.travelies.nl !
