The mighty #victoriafalls in #zimbabwe. Can't compete with #iguazu #falls, but still pretty impressive...

Just a normal day in #zimbabwe... hanging out with #zebras in the #kariba #hostel #bar

Back in #southafrica, I was about to explore the #drakensberg #mountains with a first stop at #highmoor #nature reserve. This is the view from our lodge at the #lake.

Well, here you would be looking at the second highest #waterfall in the world after #angelfalls in #venezuela... Sadly the #tugela falls were completely dry when I visited in June.

Moving on in #europe, I made it to the tiny #country of San Marino, landlocked within #italy. Really liked the three towers there!

Hitting the #lavender route in #france with a stop in #sénanque #abbey.

you have some really sick pictures, but why do you put multiple hashtags on every post in 2p2? It feels like some sort of odd shameless self promotion for your instagram page or your blog. You obviously already have taken all of these pictures and just update here once a week or whatever with a single photo, no trip report, nobody posting questions and having an ongoing commentary of advice or travel tips. I saw your previous blog on 2p2 got banned for similar reasons.

cool pictures but your whole approach is tilting. at least do a write-up of the places you go. I get the feeling you just make the same posts across 10+ internet forums trying to drive traffic to your blog

yes, i copy/paste it from instagram to some forums and yes, the goal is to get some more traffic Is it a bad thing to promote content? I can stop here, no problem at all- dont get any traffic anyway since I cant even put links in here

dont have the time on the road to write something speicfic for every forum, but if you like i can just remove the hash tags and only post the pictures. Pretty sure ppl will wonder where it was taken then though.

First picture of this years West Canada trip! We started off in the famous Banff national park with some breathtaking landscapes.

Moving south, we reached Banff national park and were astonished by the water color of the peyto lake!

The Wapta Falls in Yoho National Park, pretty strong one and you can hike down to the bottom too.

135)


The hike up to the panorama ridge at Garibaldi lake was truly spectacular! You can see the black tusk peak on this one.

This is mt rainier, a 4392m high active volcano near Seattle. I spent 8 days walking around it by hiking the wonderland trail!

141)


Enjoying the close up view on mt rainier at the second Burroughs viewpoint. Lots of people do day hikes to reach it while I included it to my wonderland hike itinerary.

143)


Making my way down to the Indian summer campsite on the wonderland trail around mt rainier.

Enjoying the last weeks of fall colours before winter creeps in. This is the indian summer camp site along the wonderland trail.

Another nice view on mt rainier from the reflection lake, which is also part of the 150km long wonderland trail.

For some reason that Raven likes his tennis ball in the Grand Canyon National Park, USA.

The Glen Canyon & Colorado River. We found this nice spot while exploring the dam area, really enjoyed the view there without any tourists around!

152)


Yes, it was really tight in the spooky canyon near Escalante, Utah! REALLY tight

Going vertical in Moab, had a great "hitch hiking" crawler tour for nearly 4 hours!

157)


The great sand dunes national park in Colorado, pretty awesome to have a tiny dessert right next to a big mountain range! The blowing sand gets stopped from the peaks and then piles up into the dunes in front of them. We slept a night in the tent on the dunes

My last park in the states: the garden of the gods near Denver. Picture taking from the visitor center, which was certainly the nicest of them all I have seen on this trip, it even smelled rally good in there haha.
