Instant love for Akamas on Cyprus (February 2023)

In Turkey I had been happy once I had found this awesome nature beach near Datca. After a pretty crowded coast in Turkey it had been the first real nature place.

On Cyprus I felt something similar when I found Akamas (see on Google Maps). This area is just awesome and wonderful and still my favorite on Cyprus.

Rosinante and I had some fun driving the tracks in Akamas which tend to be pretty steep, rocky and sometimes adventurous. The locals call one part of them “devil’s steps”. And it’s one of the rare places where I did not find any pure street Cars of the locals.

I felt very good to be back in nature, enjoyed the hiking, swimming, nature and the straight forward warning signs: “DO NOT TOUCH ANY MILITARY DEBRIS. IT MAY EXPLODE AND KILL YOU”.

First border crossing and turtle beach on Cyprus (February 2023)

After the ghost town, I did my first border crossing between the northern and the southern part of Cyprus. In the end it was all good but it seemed like that the customs officer was not very used to her job and so it took about an hour.

I followed the east coast of Cyprus and reached the city of Limassol. Just a couple of minutes from the city center I found this amazing spot.

I had a look at a shipwreck and spent my time with running, chilling and the beach and searching online for a cheap MacBook to push my music production from iPad to Ableton.

Good bye northern Germany – December Südheide landscape

In December 2021, when I started my journey to the south, which probably won’t take me to my hometown Hamburg or Germany in the next years, I visited my favorite Südheide parking place and took these photos.

Especially the first one, I like a lot because it’s split and both sides of it look beautiful in their own way. Yin and Yang etc. You know? 😁

I felt quite weird leaving the north and knowing, that I won’t come back anytime soon. For me this was very different than the “half nomadic life” I did until then in which I always came back to Hamburg after a few weeks.

From this moment in the Südheide on I’m just going somewhere.
