outdoors

There are many activities that draw me outside into the mountains. hiking, climbing, via ferrata and of course photography. Here I want to share some of the adventures i’ve had as well as upcoming ones.

hiking

For me hiking is a perfect activity to get away from technology and clear my head. My favourite is hiking in the mountains. This is why my wife and I moved from the busy Berlin to the beautiful city of Graz. Within 30 minutes you are at the base of a mountain, ready to go.

It’s also the perfect activity for brining my camera and snapping a few pictures along the way. You can find a selection of my outdoor (and other) fotos in the gallery.

Last but not least, hiking also helps me to destress. As you probably know, life can get very busy and hectic from time to time. Sports for me has proven very helpful, but I’m not always up for a climbing session. That’s way it’s great to go on a hike to relax and slow my mind.

outdoor climbing

For the most part i’m a (indoor) boulderer, but i occasionally enjoy some lead climbing as well. It is challenging for me, because of my fear of hight. I still like it though, as it allows me to work on that fear and train some much needed endurance.

This picture was taken in November 2023 in Portugal during a climbing trip with friends.

I’m hoping to do some more outdoor lead climbing, since I’m living in Austria now.

Look out for some pictures (and stories) from future climbing trips.
