1) Kayaking Trip – Germany
After finishing my master in AeronauticalEngineering, I needed some time off so I bought an inflatable kayak and floateddown the river for a couple of days, sleeping on the moving kayak… Awesome experience!

After my kayaking trip, I cycled from Germany across Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia into Budapest in Hungary to meet a good friend of mine…
3) Rowing on the Danube
We ended up rowing from Budapest to Slovakia, camping on the shores of the Danube, doing huge fires every night…
4) Cycling across Central America
On my birthday, Brad and I left from Mexico to cycle through Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, up to El Salvador… Such a crazy adventure!
5) Horse-riding Trip in Nicaragua
Basically, after climbing a volcano in Nicaragua, I heard that you could buyhorses REALLY CHEAP, so I asked aroundall the villages and ended up buying a horse for 125$. I ended up doing a horse-riding trip for about 3.5 weekswith it!
5) Hiking in Spain
I came back to spend Christmas in Spainwith my family, and took the opportunity to climb some mountains…
7) Landscapeering in Lapland
I ended up in a remote village in the middle of Lapland, snow-scooteringwith locals, cross-country skiing on frozen lakes under the northern lights, having saunas and jumping naked in the snow,
8) Road-trip in United Arab Emirates
In this road-trip through the UAE, I explored the inmensity of the deserts to where the sand meets the stars, and the oil fields lol. It was awesome, and I even got to ride the Sultan’s private buggy after climbing a hill in the desert.
9) Road-trip in Oman
In this wild road-trip I ended up driving boats full-speed with locals and stopping in paradise spots to snorkel in coral reefs, hiking in the desert, kissing camels, chasing mini sand tornadoes, climbing and getting lost in mountains, living and having dates and tea with locals in tiny villages in the Omani dress
10) Rafting & Buddhist monastery
I went rafting, elephant riding/showering, rickshawing, hopping in nepali cabs, canoeing, swimming through rapids, going on jeep and walking safaris, riding around in scooters and more. I also went to live to a Buddhist monastery for 2 weeks to recover from a knee injury that I got.
11) Trekking the Himalayas in Nepal
I decided to rehab my knee by doing a 2 week trek around some of the world’s highest mountains in the Annapurna region in the Himalayas, climbing to frozen lakes at 5000m and crossing a 5400m pass.
12) Rock Climbing in Thailand
After arriving from Nepal, I decided to spend some time rock climbing and chilling out, while asking around where I could buy a boat for my nextadventure…
13) Boat trip around Thailand-Malasia
In this crazy adventure I decided to make my dream come true by buying a small long-tail boat in Thailand to explore hundreds of paradisiacal and uninhabited islands and beaches on an epic marine journey of 6 weeks.
14) Hiking the Kungsleden, Lapland
I went 200km north of the arctic circle to hike the Kungsleden trail through a deserted Lapland, sleeping under rocks or in huts that I found along the way. I also ended up hiking off-track to the top of Kebnekaise, Sweden's highest mountain. After that, I hitch hiked about 300km through Norrbotten…
15) Fishing Roadtrip - Sweden & Finland
I did a road-trip with my buddies Thomas and Antoine around Sweden and Finland, camping and fishing by lakes in the middle of nowhere by a beach or in the middle of the forest. We also slid down some ski jumps, and called the radio and pretended that I just got married.
16) Hitch-hiking around Iceland
I spent a month hitch hiking around Iceland, camping by glaciers, volcanoes, fjords, lakes and beaches. I also climbed climbing mountains, hiked on active volcanoes, saw hundreds of waterfalls, rid Icelandic horses, and retired into the wilderness for a few days…
