I remember very little about Lolo. It was the early in the year of 2006 and I had just arrived in Buenos Aires planning to stay there for a couple of months. Since I didnt know anyone there I contacted a few random people via myspace to find out what's happening in BA. Lolo was nice enough to invite me over for a BBQ with her and her friends one afternoon an[...]

When visiting certain Asian countries, travel guides often warn about the potential dangers of eating off the street. While I can very much confirm this to be true in India, in Thailand I've never heard of any problems. Luckily, because eating off the street belongs to the highlight of any day spent in this gorgeous country. With Bangkok as the culinary c[...]

One night in Bangkok Bangkok can be an awful lot of fun. Tons of young people all ready to party their pants off. In my case I made a fun German friend - Simone - on the bus from the airport and together with Dutch fella Nick the 3 of us headed out for a night of exessive drinking, dancing, and people-meeting. To give you hints of what a night out on Khao[...]

Arriving in Bangkok is like being in retreat wonderland. Massages, facials, pedicures, manicures, hair extensions - anything to make you more relaxed and more beautiful. While i plan to give myself the full package on my last day here next week, I could not resist but try out this "spa fish" treatment. I admit, I did it for the novelty factor, rather than th[...]

Guess where I am!? Bangkok!! There sure are no bacardi breezers in India. One has to consider himself lucky to come across a bar and when you do, be sure that it closes at 10. Not such in Thailand, oh no. Any old budget hotel goes restaurant accommodation will often sport a full bar and dish up anything from beer to fancy cocktails - a heaven sent. I[...]

To be totally honest I didn't like Kolkata too much. It was polluted, had an impossible overload of cars on the street and the offer of stuff to do was pretty poor, I thought. Either way I thought I'd upload a few snaps I took walking around the city.

Amritsar came to me like eyesight to the blind. At one point during my traveling years I decided that I was not interested in temples, museums and sights in general and I regularly skipped those pages of my travel guide in favor of markets, neighborhoods and cafes which is what I enjoy and consider a better testimony of a culture as it exists in the present[...]

It's Wednesday, 8pm in Mumbai. Leaving Berlin went so smoothly that I should have guessed my arrival in Mumbai would be rough. And it was. All the traveling has made me a little cocky because for the first time ever I did not check the "getting to and from the airport" in my guidebook, because if I had, I would have known that rickshaws are not allowe[...]
