Gasoline in my veins ever since I had first been allowed to drive my father’s Trabant at the age of 12, vacations always had to include some crazy driving experience like crossing the Peruvian Andes in a Hyundai van, drowning engines in the rivers of Iceland, or dune driving in the Rub Al Khali in southern Oman.
Off-road adventure rallies have become an additional passion since I discovered the Budapest-Bamako rally in 2009. In the last years the main destination of the trips was Africa, but driving to Mongolia has been a long time dream which will hopefully come true soon.
The eponymous white Nissan Patrol of 2011 has long gone to the happy hunting grounds, but the Patrol is still my favorite car for offroading.
This blog was launched in 2010 as a platform to keep in touch with my friends and family during my travels. It is one of those websites without any deep purpose, its only aim is to share my adventures.
