Popular as marathons have become, they are usually in cities one first has to travel to. The Wachau Marathon is a fast road marathon, but it goes through the world heritage Wachau valley – and one can get to it in a very nice way…
The World Museum Vienna, the former “Völkerkundemuseum” (Ethnological Museum), is a great place to challenge oneself into deeper thinking about the learning involved – or not involved – in travel.

Vienna is a perfect place to think about European history, and a strange place of history – and especially so when it comes to the Imperial Treasury.
When there is a lunar eclipse, a.k.a. a blood moon, and the longest one of the century at that, do you go out to see it?
Can you have a (micro)adventure, take a chance for microexploration, with something so simple, in a landscape that you are more than used to?
What does one tell – what is there to tell? – of the sixth participation in the same event, the Bergmarathon (mountain marathon) around the Traunsee lake?

In a sea of new products at the 2017 edition of the OutDoor Friedrichshafen sports fair, it was the Naglev Unico shoes that somehow stuck out for me.
