Finally after so long we can be back on the water again with our sailboat Lizzy! However our relaxed season beginning in may was fortified by fantastic winds and so we just had to go for it! So right at the beginning we test our boat on the long way from the swedish west coast ...
We continue through Tuscany, heading north to the Italian Riviera. Making a few stops, some voluntary, others involuntary! Read in the pictures what we experienced 🙂 Nevertheless, we made it to Liguria on the Italian Riviera, or more specifically into the Nationlpark Cinque Terre! This little piece of land really impressed us! On a steep ...
When driving through Tuscany with its almost endless vineyards and nicely placed stone villages or individual farms you can not get enough! Thanks to our backroads guide, we take a nice route on cozy country roads with many shorter stops along the way. In the car it’s always going: “Ooohhhhh!” and “Look there!” and “Take ...
At the end of February we leave our beloved Greece, new destinations are waiting! From Patras we take the ferry to Ancona in Italy, the crossing takes 20 hours.

Since we are proud owners of our own dive compressor we can discover the beautiful Island of Andros from the under water side. Andros has many different beaches to offer: Sandy beaches with large underwater meadows, pebble beaches, or directly off the cliffs into the blue. We were diving direcly from land since we don’t ...
Finally in the middle of December we reach our home for the Winter: Andros. The island plays an important part in Mark’s life. His family is temporalily at home here since 40 years.
