Nika is a small, authentic and fully restored village on the island of Nisyros. I was told this is the most beautiful village on the island which is partially true in my opinion. If you get to Nikia by car or motorbike, you will park at the parking at the beginning of the village then […]
Emporios is the most interesting village for me on the island of Nisyros. It has been destroyed by an earthquake in 1880 and the residents actually left instead of rebuilding it. At the heyday of Emporios there were more than 3000 people living there and this was the commercial hub of the island, which is […]
Pali is a fishing village on the island of Nisyros and one of the oldest settlement. It is a relatively small place with a port, many restaurants, bars and car rental options. If you are after a very quiet holiday you can stay here as this village also has a nice sandy beach with sunbed […]
Mandraki is the capital of the island of Nisyros. Most ferries arrive at Mandraki port so this city is the first thing we saw when we arrived. It is quite a small town, very easy to walk around no taxis however you can rent a vehicle if you want to explore the island on your […]

They turned out great both me and my partner loved it, however this isn’t […]

Surin Beach is one of Phuket’s best kept secret, you can enjoy a very nice, not crowded, sandy beach. If you are into snorkeling you can do that at the rocky end of the beach very close to the restaurant. The video below was taken from the sunbeds on the Southern end of the beach.
We took this video from our hotel room in Kuala Lumpur. Luckily we had a view over both the Petronas Towers and the Menara.
I am kind of sure that this was the roughest and the longest part of our Patagonian road trip. This section of the Carretera Austral consists of 3 ferry rides and you have to be on time at the first ferry otherwise you are stuck on this side for a day. We purchased the Caleta […]
