Tales of a Traveler
From Homesickness to Wanderlust
As a child, I often felt homesick. Sometimes, I would cancel sleepovers at my friends‘ houses at the last minute because, in the end, I preferred to sleep at home. Even today, I remember these moments vividly. I was filled with shame.

The Land of Lakes & Volcanoes
I am convinced that every person could write a book about their life. A human life is full of beginnings, endings and so much in between. With the stories I’ve experienced in Nicaragua over the last few months alone, I would have enough material for a book.
Bridging the Gap
What do I want to do for the rest of my life? More than two years ago, this question gave me the decisive impulse to fundamentally change my life. However, this decision alone was not the end of the story for me. The "danger" of finding myself in the rat race I was...
Nomad Life
It wasn't planned. Many major and minor decisions over the past months and years have brought me to it. To the nomadic life. The decisions to complete the training as an outdoor guide, to quit my job and my apartment, to reduce my material possessions, to spend more...
Happy 2023
Happy 2023! How did you start the new year? Celebrating with friends, with family, in the mountains, by the sea or sleeping? I was able to ring in the new year dancing, with a Pinâ Colada in my hand and surrounded by cloud forest in Monteverde, Costa Rica. Something...
Peanuts
What's the name "Sybj Erdnuss" all about? Why does my blog have this name? Firstly, I love peanuts (German: Erdnuss). Secondly, in any form: roasted for aperitifs, wrapped in shells at Christmas, coated in sugar, in sweets like Snickers & M&M's, chopped in...
Live & Learn
A few days ago I returned from my 10-week trip through Northern & Eastern Europe. It's only a short stopover for me here in Switzerland. Time to repack, to meet family & friends and to let the many experiences set a bit. Because "after the travel is before the...
Hej Scandinavia!
My journey through Scandinavia is very varied. Since the end of July I have explored the south of Sweden and Norway. By car and ferry, on small islands, in a kayak, on campgrounds, in cities, on trekkings, in a hammock, under the stars, in a canoe, in hostels, hiking,...
I'm an Outdoor Guide
In April 2021, I started the training to become an outdoor guide. My goal was to move safely in nature, to meet like-minded people and to acquire new skills outside the daily office routine. So I travelled excitedly to eastern Switzerland and with "Outdoor Academy" to...
What Do I Want to Do
A few years ago I read the following quote: "Look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself, what do I want to do for the rest of my life... do that." I wasn't left cold by the lines. Of course, I asked myself that question - more than once. I had an inkling. I was...
