Thailand 2020

Working days at the telescope in Thailand were always intense. The instrument and data analysis were improved during the day and then tested on stars at night. But luckily the boss didn’t want to work 12 hours every day either, so we also did small activities, such as the hiking trail to the Kew Mae…

South-Tirol 2012

What do you do for the first hike on vacation? You start walking and see where you get to. At some point you have a goal and you can easily reach it. And because you still feel fit, everything is so new and interesting, you think you can go a little further on the way…

Maui 2012 (2)

The last transit of Venus took place in the summer of 2012. As part of this, I had the chance to take part in a workshop that included observing the transit. The accommodation for the workshop was at 1000 meters, on the slopes of Haleakala. And why use a car when you can also rent…

Ore mountains 2012

A multi-day hike through the Vogtland and Erzgebirge in Germany gave us this fantastic view at almost 900m altitude. The hike was almost exactly 10 years ago. I probably didn’t have a lot of emotions on the trek, as few details have stayed with me to this day. I still remember a lot of the…

La Palma 2014 (7)

After my second weekend bike tour on La Palma (described in La Palma (6)) on Saturday, I was already back on my bike on Sunday. I had sent the bike from Germany to La Palma and had to do without it for 3 weeks, apparently I then tried to make up for the bike withdrawal.…

La Palma 2014 (6)

My second weekend bike tour on La Palma (the first is described in La Palma (5)) led south and steadily uphill again. Since I didn’t want to go back to the west side of the island, I used one of the forest paths back. From then on it was very quiet and I didn’t see…

England 2020

The view from the bike on a spring bike tour is always great. I found it impressive how many flowers grow on the forest floor.
