Travel Experiences of Africa, South America & Asia

Heidi @ L’Espace Guesthouse in Muscat

I have been traveling intensively for over 15 years. These journeys – some short, others longer like a „Trip Around the World” in 2007 and in 2015, took me to more than 40 countries (and counting) on all continents except Antarctica.

I sometimes use roads well traveled to visit world famous sights, but most of the time I try to stay Off The Beaten Track. I have never been a budget backpacker traveling the toughest and cheapest possible way, but I am an experienced rucksack traveler who appreciates a minimum level of comfort. Yes, I am “Flashpacker”…

This blog is about Flashpacking in Africa, South America & Asia. I want it to be helpful for Flashpackers who, like me, feel like Backpackers but are no longer ready for the hardcore type of budget travel. I want my blog to be a source of inspiration to discover the Unknown plus a “Travel Resources Website”, with a focus on organizing & budgeting trips, no matter how short or long, and on optimizing travel photography. You find here:

• Vivid day to day travel experiences in my “Travel Blog”,
• Detailed budget information on each country I visited and tips to reduce travel costs in “Travel Budget”,
• First-hand, structured & detailed travel information in my “Travel Guides”,
• Insights to improve your travel photography and a selections of my best photos & videos in “Travel Photography”

Keep on Traveling, Discovering, Experiencing – Follow Your Dreams!
