Welcome to my world!

by ahoerner - last update: Dec 9, 2008

Just choose your path...

Woods near Eppstein, Germany.
That is what travelling is all about: take new paths, discover new worlds, meet interesting people, exchange cultures, try different tastes...

Every time I come back home I feel I carry much more than my luggage: I carry new experiences, new friends, new tastes, new sights... and after all I am not exactly the same person I was before.

Something about myself: I am Brazilian, son of Brazilian mom and Argentine dad. Right from the beginning my life has been about travelling. And I am really fond of the idea of getting somewhere else... I have gotten used to it anyway.


Aninuan beach, Mindoro Is., Philippines.

More about travelling...

I've been working in some pages - some old ones from my first European trip - but also some pages of our recent trips.

My suggestion is to begin by having an appetizer on my travel history, then you could visit my VT Travel Pages until you make your mind on which destination you will choose first

Have fun!

P.S.: You can after all take also a look at Leipzig's Famous Travel Quiz... Join us at Leipzig's Homepage and have some fun knowing many other interesting places and travel stories.
P.S.: Christian is currently giving us a time to rest from the weekly quiz. But I have rested for too long already!



Perla and I at the Summer Palace, Beijing, China.

My travel mate

Since 1999 my travel mate has been my lovely Perla, my wife... here we are in the Summer Palace in Beijing, China.

We had similar travel experiences before knowing each other and that is why we love to travel... and travel together is even better and funnier.

So, now and then you can also find in this website a picture of us or of her in one of our recent trips.



More to come soon!

What's going on here anyway?!?

After one and a half year in China, we're back to southern Brazil, where the forests are really green and the landscapes were so much missed.

Early December makes everyone in town remember that it's Christmas. The city gets its traditional decoration, people start to rush for the Christmas presents and holiday preparations.

And as usual (or unusual) the temperature drops right before summer... I think God reserves every year a bit of "mild winter" for us here in the south.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!



Isn't flying great?!
Last Stops...
Late December/January spent on vacations in Brazil, back home. Some new pages, as the lovely Sao Bento do Sul, are not built yet. Soon to come.

January 30th-31st were spent on Harbin, north of China, where we had the chance to visit the famous "Ice and Snow Festivals".

Mid February was spent in South Korea - Seoul and Gyeongju.

Late April I had a short business trip to Ingolstadt, Germany.

Early May began in the amazing Cambodia and the Angkor temples - Phnom Penh and Siem Reap... Updates soon as well.

Mid May included a short weekend trip to Beijing...

Late July we spent a weekend in Dalian, China. Check out the new pages.

Early August I spent on a business trip to Puebla, Mexico, ... check the newest updates.

Early September we spent a weekend in Beijing, just to feel a little bit the rush of a big Chinese city...

Late September there was a weekend trip to Jilin and the nearby Songhua lake. Amazing landscapes and good time among friends. Pages are not built yet: coming soon.

From October 1st on we took vacations in Singapore, Malaysia (Pulau Perhentian and Kuala Lumpur) and Thailand (Phuket, Ko Phi Phi, Ko Samui, Ko Phangan and Bangkok)! Amazing places...

Early November we headed back to our hometown Curitiba, Southern Brazil... where we are now...

Early December we spent a weekend in Sao Bento do Sul, 110km from here... town settled by German immigrants... where my sister lives.

Christmas in Curitiba (home) and New Year's in Capao Bonito...

Mid January we went visiting some friends in Salto, Sorocaba and Sao Paulo... it was a long weekend indeed!

Next stops...
Quick weekend trip for scuba diving in Sao Paulo State, some 20 miles from coast... pictures will be posted soon!
