We already visited Cliff Dwellings while roaming r

We already visited Cliff Dwellings while roaming round in the US, but these ones are the most incredible ones we ever saw: They are called Moon House.
Only 20 people / day are allowed to do the hike down into the Canyon. We have been lucky and got a permit to do so. Even though the "road" to the trailhead took us quite a while it was absolutely worth it!

FLASHFLOODS Because we received so many questions

FLASHFLOODS
Because we received so many questions about our story about the flashflood, here is some more information:
Our destination was the San Lorenzo Canyon in New Mexico. It's a "drive-in-Canyon", the scenery is beautiful. At some point the dirt road leads into the dry riverbed. There was a dark cloud above us and we got a little bit of rain. We talked about the potential danger of a flash flood - so we didnt drive all the way to the end of the Canyon, instead we looked for a place in the wider area. After all, it was only a few drops, lasting for about 15 minutes. After that we set off on a hike in bright sunshine. We spontaneously decided to walk counterclockwise, i.e. deeper into the canyon. We turned a few corners when we heard a rustling noise. We thougt of a car coming, but suddenly we saw water shooting towards us. Damn - a flashflood! We turned around and ran as fast as we can, jumped into the driver's cab and Peter started the engine. All 4 tires have been already in the water, approx. 25 cm high. Water splashed up the sides of the canyon. We managed to drive in front of the wave, luckily the canyon got wider again so the tide slowed down. After about two kilometers we escaped from the river bed and took a deep breath. Only some minutes later we saw the crazy amount of water and mud coming down the riverbed. Now we realized how incredibly lucky we were. If we had started the hike earlier, in the other direction, if we would have parked further in the canyon...

The danger of flashfloods is very real - there must have been a massive rainfall somewhere in the far distance that triggered the flood. So be careful out there - especially during monsoon season!

Safe travels!

PS. The Canyon is on BLM Land, there are several signs but no information about the danger of flashfloods in this area.

Ideas are changing once again - we never travelled

Ideas are changing once again - we never travelled with a fixed schedule like many others do or have to do. But of course we also have "ideas" where to go and when. So for this year we thought we will ship to South America, but a few days ago we crossed the border to the USA one more time. There are still so many places we haven't visited and during our last stays we made many friends we would like to see again! Also we are looking forward to fullfill one of our dreams next year, and for this we will go back to Europe for some months. That the officers at the border gave us a one year Visa for the US feels like a confirmation that we have made the right decision. Jackpot 🥳
South America - we are sure you will wait for us!

Because one week in the mountains is of course not

Because one week in the mountains is of course not enough for us we added 3 weeks of hiking & climbing in Allgäu/Germany.

Our batteries are full again and we are really looking forward going back to Mexico where our Dicker 🚚 is waiting for us to continue our travels 🗺

We made ourselves a present and booked a week full

We made ourselves a present and booked a week full of hiking in the fantastic Dolomites.
In earlier times we often spent our holidays in the Alps and in the Dolomites. We especially love Italy because of the great mix of extraordinary hiking and delicious food. Moreover, the Italian hospitality and lifestyle is great.

Himmel Landshut - Tausend Landshut - Halloooooo ⚔️👰🤵
I'm so proud of my hometown, every 4 years the "city plays the Middle Ages" - so perfect that
historians and experts are also thrilled. At the "Landshuter Hochzeit 1475" the young Duke Georg of Bavaria-Landshut married the Polish princess Hedwig. Nowadays, Landshut is celebrating the wedding 3 weeks, everybody is out on the streets, the weather is perfect, the mood is extraordinary. We love ❤️

Home Sweet Home 🥰 Before continuing further sou

Home Sweet Home 🥰
Before continuing further south along the Panamericana, we are back in Germany to spend some weeks with family and friends and to enjoy the things we miss while travelling fulltime overseas. Such things like CHEESE & bread 🤣. And to be honest we miss the mountains, too. So we are planning to do some proper hikes in the Alps 🧗‍♀️
