A day like any other on Utila
Usually still half asleep, I blend this smoothie from frozen bananas, papaya, pineapple, watermelon, and sometimes—if we managed to get some—passion fruit (maracuya). Then I add a few ice cubes and sometimes a bit of peanut butter. The result is a wonderfully cold, fruity-sweet smoothie that’s often better eaten with a spoon than drunk, thanks to its creamy texture from the frozen ingredients.
Dive master training in Utila
The sun is scorching from the sky, directly onto my head. Sweat is dripping from my forehead, my wetsuit is slowly soaking it up and warming me up even more—completely unnecessarily. The boat is rocking, and I have to keep my eyes on the horizon so I don’t get sick. My diving mask is strapped to my face, and I’m ready to jump into the cooling water.

Zurich - Rocky Mountains
We actually wanted to start a blog a while ago, but with all the traveling, painting, photography, and processing of impressions, we never really found the time. However, when we spent two weeks in the Rocky Mountains helping a family build a log cabin, we finally found the time to sit down and get started.
Canada, the BIG country
Canada is bigger. Bigger than most other countries (in fact, all except Russia). But in Canada also many things are bigger than in other countries. At least that’s what we noticed in the 5 months we spent in the country. Here are some of those things.
Down the Yukon River on a Canoe
Intro Canada. One of those countries, if not the country, known for its wilderness. Forests as far as the eye can see, empty valleys, unclimbed mountain peaks, pristine coastlines, square kilometers of untouched nature. Like many before us, we were drawn to Canada for these very reasons. As “trip preparation,” we watched a documentary on
