A Roadtrip to Poland

Actually I had no plans for summer holidays…. but my best friend kind of forced me to, because he had to take holidays during summer break. And what ever…. I love travelling, and I never travelled through Poland. My best friends family used to live there. He didnt see his relatives for more than 14 years and somehow he felt it was time to go back to his roots.

We started in the night from saturday to sunday after we visited a free festival from one of our favorite punk bars SONIC BALLROOM in cologne. It was a good idea to go drive through the night, because my car is not climated and the trip to my parents is always a real long distance. We arrived 7 in the morning.

After two days off at my parents place we headed up to baltic sea. Leba, an old touristic place where my grandparents already used to make holidays. Around Leba they have real big dunes, like hills, where people go climbing. We arrived in the afternoon and parked walta, the car a bit outside of the centre, next to the sea. It was perfect.

The sunset was great, but it was a bit strange to see people selling weapons at the beach prominade. Even more when you see all the kids there running around. Leba is a typical place for family holidays. But this is a also a part of polish identity,  I guess. A Roadtrip to Poland weiterlesen

Tel Aviv, Graffiti art and other stuff

The flight was actually not long for a long distance traveler, but flying and sitting in a plane is always annoying. Anyway, after 7 hours I arrived in Tel Aviv at Ben Gurion Airport. I had to change in Istanbul, where I just caught the Transit flight in time. Pegasus is always a bit late, but they are nice and cheap.

I immediately got in touch with another German and an Israeli who showed us how we got to our hostels. I had no clue. I just trusted. And reached my hostel. Hayarkon 48. Next to the beach. The service was great, breakfast inclusive. One night costs 25 Euro. It was the first and cheapest hostel that popped up, when I booked one day before. I hate to make plans before, but i am always lucky.

Worst case scenery would be to sleep in a McDonald’s I thought myself. So this was so much better. I was happy. And finally arrive in the hostel around 01:00 in the night. I had to learn, that they don’t sell alcohol after 23:00. That was a pity. Tel Aviv, Graffiti art and other stuff weiterlesen

Sonne, Strand, Meer …

… und Weihnachten! Ich komm gar nicht darauf klar, dass wir Dezember haben und hier sind es um die 25°C!! Unglaublich – und trotzdem sind hier alle in Weihnachtsstimmung. Wir hätten am 24.12. fast vergessen, dass Weihnachten ist^^

Auch am Strand sieht man überall Weihnachtsmützen^^ Wirkt irgendwie leicht surreal für uns, wobei wir uns in Zukunft wohl auch auf Weihnachten ohne Schnee einstellen müssen.

Dem Klimawandel sei Dank…  IMG_2781IMG_2756
