My travel adventures

& some other stuff

Welcome to my Website!

Hello and welcome to my page 🙂

I’m Katrin and I used to travel a lot in my 30ies.
Currently (2026), I’m working on including all my old travel blogs to keep all these good memories alive.

I’m also adding some new things, e.g. DIY recipes and content about my current photography and sports activities.
So you’ll find a pretty colourful mixture here 🙂
And maybe there’s something interesting in there for you as well.

Enjoy!
And please let me know if you find any errors or inconsistencies in the contact form. Thanks!

After the rain follows the sun: From Koblenz to Cochem

Download GPX track

Sunday morning was the exact opposite from the day before: despite the noise inside and outside the hotel, I woke up refreshed and in a super relaxed mood.

After breakfast, I packed up my things and wanted to get on the road. But just before I got going, it started to rain – and not only a little. So I put on my rain gear before I cycled to the Deutsche Eck, the point in Koblenz where the Mosel runs into the Rhine river and where the Mosel cycling path starts.

Bad cycling day: Remagen to Koblenz

Download GPX track (Remagen to Andernach)

Yesterday was one of the worst days since I started cycling. I thought already in the morning about taking the train to my parents and take a loooooooooooooong break from cycling. There was no specific reason, just a bad day. I thought I would quickly cycle to Koblenz and decide then what I would do.

Today I started my trip with the two new items I bought in Cologne the day before yesterday: my new rain jacket and my new drinking bottle. And also a new tire which I didn’t photograph 😉

Soooooooo nice: From Neuss to Bruehl

The ride from Neuss to Bruehl was one of the nicest during my trip so far: the weather was cloudy but almost dry, the cycling paths are in excellent condition and the guiding system here is directly from heaven 🙂 also, the flourishing nature all around me made this a real holiday.

Sunny cycling to the Rhine: Essen to Neuss

Download GPX track

Although I love Essen and everything seemed to go so well, again I got lost shortly after I found the first promising sign pointing to my first destination “Werden”. I even circled back to the sign and tried again but not a chance to find the follow-up sign. So I decided to cycle to Werden according to my phone, again missing one of those “wonderful” cycle routes.
