I'm off for a moment...

...sometimes for longer periods. And if you're looking for inspiration for your own travels or simply want to follow my adventures and experiences, you'll find here the stories and photo essays of my big and small getaways.

When I kicked off this blog back in late 2016, I’d just signed a sabbatical agreement and was gearing up for a nine-month break. I created this space to keep track of my memories and thoughts, but also to give family, friends, and anyone interested a chance to follow along and maybe get inspired for their own adventures.

Then came the COVID-19 pandemic, which put travel plans on hold for three years with all the restrictions. I ended up exploring my local area more. Wandering around Berlin helped me discover new things and gave me little escapes from the lock-down stress. I was basically a tourist in my own hometown.

Now that the pandemic is behind us, traveling has gotten so much easier and more enjoyable again. I can’t wait to dive into new adventures and share them all here.

Cheers,

Thomas
