I’m a self-admitted festival hussie. My parents were huge hippies and I grew up going to lots of festivals and giant outdoor concerts, and as an adult I’ve been to and worked at my fair share. But no other week has blown my mind and changed me as much as going to Burning Man.

When I was young, one of the top things on my list of ‘Things to do before I die’ was to see the Northern Lights.

I always thought they were a rare sight and one …
I love open air festivals, but I love them small. After attending the medium-sized Dockville Festival two years in a row, I thought I knew that bigger festivals weren’t for me. But then a friend convinced me to go to Highfield this year, which is one of the biggest indie rock music festivals in Germany. I was a little uneasy about attending an event with 25.000 people, …
Sunshine seems to be quite rare this summer. This is why we should enjoy every sunny day and make the best out of it. And what makes a day be better than relaxing at the beach or getting involved in some outdoor activities such as skating, surfing or listening to some good music?
Only one hour away from London you can find the cosy town of Brighton, which offers all of …
Gone are the days when music festivals were only about pot-bellied heavy metal fans and men who didn’t shower for three days in a row. I’ve drunk my share of 10am-beers whilst sat in a fold-up camping chair on a muddy field (and thoroughly enjoyed it, too!)… but especially in recent years, festival culture has become a lot more diverse and than that.

But instead of a classical ceremony, the whole nation is having a huge party and more than million people will come to Amsterdam to become part of this unique event. Get prepared for the biggest street party …
As the summer is getting closer, so is the festival period. With so many great festival around Europe, festival passes and plane tickets must be booked soon. This is how my summer started out last year: Take a few of my favorite bands, a beautiful beach, a handful of good friends and cold beer – and you have the perfect festival experience. A weekend of music at the Super Rock …
It all started on a cold and miserable winter morning in 2009 in Cologne, Germany. Marcel is meeting Kai, his former flatmate who wants to go on a very special trip with him. A few months later, in summer 2010, they are travelling to Iceland. With the help of Icelandic partners and donations from all over the world they were able to realise their idea of a documentary about Icelandic …
What is a legendary road trip without the right music?
Flicking through my I-Pod, there are heaps of songs that remind me of great moments and great places. Below, find my top 10 of favourite travel songs:
1. Moby – Porcelain
…Driving alone with my 4WD at the endless Cable Beach in Broome, Australia (God, I miss that car!!!)

I love my car. I love being out on the road, no matter for how long. You and I know how important it is to have the right play-list of songs for the ride. Whether you’re singing along to your favourite tune with your friends on the backseat or just enjoying the ride alone, the right music makes every trip easy and fun. So a good soundtrack is a must. …
