The oyster explains it well...
...it’s not the packaging that matters, but what’s inside. What makes travel exciting is not the fact that you travel, but how you travel and, above all, what you experience.
For more than 30 years, I have been travelling the world – and together with my team, I am still curious about special places, interesting people, small discoveries and great moments. About what ultimately makes a journey unforgettable. Because your private time is precious – and it matters to us.
Should wanderlust make itself felt as you browse through these pages, we share the same diagnosis.
There is only one remedy: travel.
Recommended dose: as much of the world as possible.
Warmly
Stephanie Elingshausen
“I haven’t been everywhere, but it’s on my list.” (Susan Sontag)
The American writer puts it wonderfully! Because with every journey, the world doesn’t get smaller – instead, the longing for new places grows just a little bit more.
Wanderlust is a wonderful kind of “ache” – and usually a pretty faithful companion. Discover, experience, touch, understand. No matter how much you have already seen: there is always something you simply have to experience at least once.
We have put together a few of our personal favourites for you in our “Bucket List”.
Heart-stopping moments guaranteed!
Let yourself be carried away on a safari for the eyes and a little mental cinema - good for wanderlust and making new travel plans!
For example to Norway, the land of the lucky ones. Or to Iceland, where elves and trolls help build roads. Decelerate in India in the ultimate wellness oasis and marvel in Japan at over 70-year-old conch divers and tennis-playing Buddhas. Things are even more adventurous in South Africa. There, the legendary safari pioneer Colin Bell explains how to steal the fillet from the lion for a barbecue.
You've already noticed: Wonderful moments are waiting for you in this world - it's our job to find them. And one thing is for sure: an adventure can also feel very serene, on a picture-perfect beach overlooking endless blue.
