In the past, backpackers were often left to their own devices. This has always been one of the main goals of backpacking.

Thanks to increasing digitalization, it is now possible to use a variety of apps to make traveling much easier. When I'm backpacking in Germany, I use a few apps to make my travel easier. I would like to briefly present these to you below.

Hawaii is the 50. State of the USA and is often called "Aloha State. Spelled correctly: Hawai'i. On the small islands, the northern tip of the Polynesian Triangle, live people of different cultures and therefore also different religions.

Enchanted surreal stone formations, the mist lies gently over the meadows and one feels like in a fairy tale. Sounds like a discovery in a distant land? No, because you can experience all this in the nature park Teufelsschlucht in the south Eifel!

Sounds quite dangerous at first this Devil's Gorge. Located in the southern Eifel not so many tourists get lost here. At least not in winter. At times I even had a funny feeling in my stomach. No cell phone network, no people … but more about that later.

We are spoiled. Spoiled by paradisiacal beaches where we bathed on our world trip. Gili Meno and Karimunjawa are hard to beat. Therefore, the island of Phu Quoc did not really knock our socks off. It is a beautiful island, where you can relax and swim, but unfortunately Phu Quoc has a garbage problem. And a construction problem. Everywhere new hotels are being built and destroy the charm of the island.

Accommodation and food on Phu Quoc

But we did not regret our trip (with the crazy journey on the moped cab). Because we had a great hotel in Duong Dong, the largest city on the island, and also found a nice beach without trash.

Since 2013 there is the Gay Travel Index. The ranking compares more than 190 countries and is meant to give homosexuals an overview of which countries are tolerant, but unfortunately also where it is still dangerous.

It is located on the border between New Brunswick (Canada) and Maine (USA), and is part of the former Canadian province of. Grand Manan Island is the largest island in the Bay of Fundy and probably relatively unknown as a tourist destination, since it is a little off the beaten track. In fact, I had not heard of this island before our tour of Canada. On the 34 kilometers long and 18 kilometers wide island live about 2.500 people. It is quiet here.

The first generation of the Japanese crossover Nissan Juke polarized with its body design. Number two has been significantly smoothed out and now offers more space for passengers and luggage. The Nissan Juke is now only available with one engine version. For the test the Japanese was available in the N-Connecta equipment and with 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

After 10 years of construction and 1.5 million copies of the first generation sold, Nissan offers the new edition of the Nissan Juke on the German market since January 2020. Based on the CMF-B platform, the Renault-Nissan collaboration slimmed down the engine lineup to one variant and eliminated all-wheel drive in the future.

Planning is half the battle! If you already know where you want to go on your city break, you should first think about what kind of vacation you want to take. Are you more the party type and want to see all the hotspots and clubs that are in town?? Or do you prefer to spend your day in different museums or cultural institutions??

Maybe this is also the mix for you! When planning your trip, it always depends on your individual travel type. That means you plan (ideally) in advance what you want to see and make a rough time schedule. This is not to say that you make a to-do list and just work through it.

When you think of Florida, you probably think of palm trees, miles of white sandy beaches, and of course – how could it be any other way – Florida's hotspot Miami Beach. The beach metropolis of the Sunshine State is one of the world's most popular destinations and the center of attraction par excellence for all party-loving sun worshippers. In my round trip through Florida, however, I would like to show you what else the Sunshine State has to offer besides Miami Beach (maybe you can experience it all for yourself during your language study trip to Miami or your student exchange in Florida). Let's go!

1. ST. AUGUSTINE

Our Florida round trip begins in St. Augustine, the oldest settlement in the USA. St. Augustine is located in northeast Florida, at the mouth of the Matanzas River. The in the 16.
