AWAY WE GO

Tag - achter de schermen

Traveling means for me changing your plans every now and then... We stayed for two days at the beautiful Lake Atitlan and were planning to stay two more nights in another village. But then we saw the weather forecast... If we would stay for two more nights, then we would get rained on in the next two places we would visit. Of course, being Dutch, I know that the weather forecast is not always right, but still.. So what to do? We decided very last minute to change plans and booked a shuttle for the next morning at 8:00. And guess what? We had beautiful weather in the next two places! So it all worked out well. Do you change your plans while traveling? Or do you try to stick to them? . . . . #awaywego.nl #wanderlust #traveltheworld #travelmore #traveladdict #instatraveler #traveltips #passportready #reizen #wereldreiziger #3opreis #worldnomads #wegdromer #reisblog #reisblogger #photooftheday #reisverslaafd #reistips #instagood #lakeatitlan #guatemala #guatemalabackpacking #guatemalatravel #natuurfoto #naturelover #landschapsfoto #landscape_captures #santiagolakeatitlan
In Guatemala you will see that the Mayan culture is still very alive. At the city of Santiago next to Lake Atitlan, you can witness ceremonies being held in a local house. They ask the wooden statue of Maximon for good luck, health and a prosperous harvest, while they give him presents like cigarettes and alcohol. Not only do they offer him, they even let him have a smoke and drink himself! As a tourist you can ask a tuktuk driver to take you there, where you can witness a ceremony or have one done for you with the gifts you have taken. You can also take pictures for a small fee. Definitely a special thing to witness and to get a look inside of the Mayan culture! . . . . #awaywego.nl #travel #wanderlust #wanderingsoul #traveltheworld #travelmore #traveladdict #instatraveler #traveltips #passportready #reizen #wereldreiziger #3opreis #worldnomads #wegdromer #reisblog #reisblogger #photooftheday #reisverslaafd #reistips #instagood #santiagolakeatitlan #lakeatitlan #atitlan #guatemala #guatemalatravel #guatemalabackpacking #backpackersintheworld #centralamericatravel #mayaculture
Happy New year everyone! Hopefully it will be a great year full with traveling, health and happiness. For me personally, I am happy that I could say goodbye to 2021... And I definitely celebrated the start of 2022 in a great way! We had a great fancy dinner in Escobar in Antigua. Then we went over to the main square and even made our way to a party hostel with a roof top bar, where we watched the beautiful fireworks over the town. Bring it on 2022! 🎆🎆 I shared more of Antigua, Guatemala, in my stories. . . . . #awaywego.nl #travel #wanderlust #wanderingsoul #traveltheworld #travelmore #traveladdict #instatraveler #traveltips #passportready #reizen #wereldreiziger #3opreis #worldnomads #wegdromer #reisblog #reisblogger #photooftheday #reisverslaafd #reistips #instagood #antigua #antiguaguatemala #travelguatemala #guatemala #guatemalatravel #cerrolascruces

Merry Christmas, I hope everyone has some nice days! I will spend Christmas together with my boyfriend in the USA. And our boss just gave us a great present. Our holiday got approved! The 30th we will fly to Guatemala and a month later we will fly out of Cancun in Mexico. We are planning a lot of exploring in Guatemala and some diving and kitesurfing in Mexico. Can't wait! . . . . #awaywego.nl #wanderlust #traveltheworld #travelmore #traveladdict #instatraveler #traveltips #passportready #reizen #wereldreiziger #3opreis #worldnomads #wegdromer #reisblog #reisblogger #photooftheday #reisverslaafd #reistips #instagood #newport @discovernewport #traveltheworld #travelmore #christmas #merrychristmas
Bali is an island where I have been multiple times. The first time was probably about 20 years ago with my parents! Obviously it was very different and less touristy back then, but the culture that makes the island so special has stayed! The gorgeous Balinese temples, the ceremonies and the dailey offerings you see everywhere. That is what makes Bali so unique and special to me. You will definitely not be the only tourist in Bali, but there are still places to find with less tourists. My favorite place like that is Munduk. A little town from where you can walk to some gorgeous waterfalls! . . . . #awaywego.nl #wanderlust #traveltheworld #travelmore #traveladdict #instatraveler #traveltips #passportready #reizen #wereldreiziger #3opreis #worldnomads #wegdromer #reisblog #reisblogger #photooftheday #reisverslaafd #reistips #instagood #bali #baligram #baliindonesia #indonesia #southeastasia #backpackersintheworld #backpackingasia
After years of moving around, it looks like we are going to stay in the US for winter with the yacht that we work on. No warm Caribbean season for us this year... I am for sure going to miss the island vibes, the sun and the rum. But well, we got ourselves some second hand snowboards and we will take this opportunity to give it a shot. Heard we will fall a lot in the beginning lol, so wish us luck. And not leaving also means that we are going for a holiday soon! So excited! . . . . #awaywego.nl #wanderlust #wanderingsoul #traveltheworld #travelmore #traveladdict #instatraveler #traveltips #passportready #reizen #wereldreiziger #3opreis #worldnomads #wegdromer #reisblog #reisblogger #photooftheday #reisverslaafd #reisblog #reisblogger #travelblogger #yachtlife #jachting #yachties
When I travel I don't only like to visit the must sees of a country, but I also like to go off the beaten track. See the local life and get away from the selfie sticks. In Southeast Asia I went to Myanmar. A country that only quite recently opened up for tourists. There I went on a motorbike trip with a local guide and even saw people that never saw a tourist before in their life! Do you like to go off the beaten track when you travel? In my newest blog on Awaywego you can read (written in Dutch, but Google translate is a great thing!) my new blog with other off the beaten track destinations I have been to in Southeast Asia.

This picture was was taken from my beautiful hotel room in San Fransisco. This weekend it's time to explore another American city. New York! I spend a day in New York before, between flights. But this is the first time that I will spend the night there. Very excited! I started making a list with things that I want to see and do. But I can always use more tips! . . . . #awaywego.nl #wanderlust #traveltheworld #travelmore #traveladdict #instatraveler #traveltips #passportready #reizen #wereldreiziger #3opreis #worldnomads #wegdromer #reisblog #reisblogger #photooftheday #reisverslaafd #reistips #instagood #sanfrancisco #amerikareizen #usatravel
