Im Berchtesgadener Land ging es auf eine Wanderung 1000 Höhenmeter hinauf auf den Jenner zur Mitterkaseralm. Was da alles passieren kann lest ihr auf Purple Avocado.

When you’re going on a mountain hike in March, you are definitely aware, that there might be snow in the higher regions.

Hiking in Berchtesgaden – Lake Hintersee

The first hike of my short trip to the Berchtesgadener Land lead me to Ramsau on a round trip to the lake Hintersee and through a magic forest. As an amateur hiker without any outstanding experience and less endurance than I actually planned to have, I always fear to over strain myself with goals set […]

Eriskay – Caribbean flair in Scotland

If you want to enjoy some Caribbean Flair with white beaches and turquoise water in Scotland you should travel to the outer Hebrides. The Isle of Eriskay gives you exactly this summer holiday feeling.

When my brother and I decided for Scotland as our travel destination, we imagined everything but white beaches and turquoise water. We hadn’t planned to lounge lazily at the beach. We wanted to hike up mountains, see castles, drink Whisky and watch Scotsmen throwing around with tree trunks.

Okonomiyaki, Cats and Cosplay with Senta

Classical recipe for Okonomiyaki by Senta. I was petting cats and Senta was cooking japanese - for my series 'Food from Friends' a culinary journey to friends. Now on Purple Avocado.

Okonomiyaki This unpronounceable word was still foreign to me – until I made myself a home in Senta’s living-kitchen area where she cooked for us while I cuddled with her cats.
