From my balcony to the world
Sailing for me means way more than just to enjoy water, wind and the sun. It's a lifestyle. It's been quite a while since we last set sail. The reason is that we changed our boat sharing provider. We are now on a Beneteau Cyclades 39 which in fact is exactly the same as we… Continue reading Sailing is a lifestyle
After not having flown into Paderborn for more than a year we are finally back. Even though we didn't fly a single sector throughout the entire winter it is reassuring how quickly we all got back into business. Sure, it all felt a bit strange at the beginning but we are professionals after all. After… Continue reading What a salute

We love to travel. We love to explore. We love to fly. Countries all over the place are finally trying to take back and ease some of the travel restrictions which we all were facing throughout the last couple of months. When you live in a country which is severely dependant on tourism you can… Continue reading Let´s get back to business

From Palma we followed initially the highway to Manacor and from there we continued to Colonia Sant Pere. The vineyard is, or was owned by a French count ( he recently sold it ) who started… Continue reading Wine & Sail

Most common mistakes when it comes to sea-sickness is boarding a vessel with an empty stomach, not bringing enough clothes when you feel cold or when you think you can manage a cruise day while experiencing a hang-over. While most… Continue reading Drunken Sailor
I love it when we can combine two of my favorite activities in one weekend: hiking and sailing. On day one we decided to escape the city and enjoy the weather on the mountains. Our goal was the tallest peak in the Northwest of Mallorca, Puig de Galatzó: 1026 meters above mean sea level. Equipped… Continue reading Weekend Fun
Even tough this current situation is not easy I have to admit that I never had more time to enjoy hikes or sail the boat than during this pandemic. Sure, I couldn't enjoy winter in Austria as I normally would have. No skiing in fresh powder nor climbing mountains with skies at New Years Day.… Continue reading Bec de Ferrutx
After five months without a single flight we are finally back to the flight deck. The worldwide pandemic really cut us short and left us sitting at home and actually just hoping for the best. Industries were hit hard throughout the world especially tourism and aviation. Despite all the bad news over the last 12… Continue reading Up in the air
Ahead lay a 11km long trail in the northern part of the island of Mallorca. We started the hike not very far from the Lluc monastery. The first 3kms were quite straight forward. A lovely hike through oak forests and beautiful landscapes. Thereafter our work-out started: during the next 1,7kms we had to climb 500m.… Continue reading Puig Tomir
