e are sorry Austria… we looked at you while hiking around the Drei Zinnen and were utterly impressed but today we blasted through you… Within 1,5 hour we made it from the Italian border to the German border driving through this impressive country of snow-capped peaks, the greenest valley’s and cutest villages. Auf Wiedersehen!
lmost a full day behind our laptops in this ‘Tiroller-hutte’. Website updates, photo editing, writing articles that have been in our mind but not yet noted down, video editing, video editing and video editing… and we also cleaned the entire car from the inside which was really necessary. A thorough autumn cleansing for our BYD F5!
he last outdoor activity of this journey to fully test our Ozark gear once again: an epic hike of 8 hours around the Drei Zinnen with the highest point of this hike being a mountain pass of 2546 meters. Snow was abundant, temperatures around zero in the shade and during mid-day around 20 degrees in the full sun, and the …
6.30am: beep beep beep. Time to wake up, a long day driving ahead of us! Firstly, I hop into the shower, figuring out if there is hot water or if it’s going to be a ‘refreshing shower’. Often breakfast is included so we can enjoy a boiled egg, tasteless or delicious bread (depending on where we are) and a tea. …
oodbye summer… after 89 days in 25+ degrees around noon-time it was unfortunately time to say goodbye to this luxury. A drive of only 200 kilometers made us depart Venice with a comfy 27 degrees to arrive only three hours later in temperatures around 0 degrees Celsius! Mother Nature has been doing well in this area of Sud-Tirol in Italy, …
enice really surprised us. This probably had to do with the fact that we downplayed our expectations… ‘it’s too touristy, too expensive, and doesn’t have our type of crowd’. Apparently we were wrong as Venice in October is relaxed and enjoyable. This probably also had to do with the fact that we visited the Venice Biennale, the largest expo of …
agical Venice. What to say about the birthplace of Marco Polo? It was truly wonderful floating into the city, with a fresh sea breeze and an amazing sunset over the towers that mark the skyline. Venice is totally car-free so no shots this time of our BYD driving the streets of Venice… but how cool would it be if we …
ime for a change! After 2,5 months of growing my beard, which came in handy as I didn’t need to shave and in Iran I blended well in, I decided to trim my beard… it feels strange without all the fluffy hair but let’s be honest, it didn’t really suit me, did it?
e get more and more respect for car photographers and videographers. To shoot cars from the right angle, in the best light, in an environment that you cannot control is quite a challenging job! We tried our best in the narrow streets of Siena… judge for yourself! But shooting photos of our BYD car is only part of this journey. …
iena, a magnificent Gothic style village surrounded by the hills and wineries in Tuscany, made us step back in time. A center full of history, squares (piazza’s), car-free and a young urban vibe! A place to visit again!
