summer

We were in Mykonos in the summer of 2021, exploring the Aegean sea island while onboard Running on Waves. When we reached Mykonos, we had a small list of places to visit, and the windmills of Mykonos were high on that list. Mainly because we have seen them online and they looked gorgeous and, second, because we visited windmills in Berlin before. This is something that we do whenever we travel somewhere.

Up in the mountains of the Austrian Alps, there is a small village called Lech am Arlberg. Most people know the area as one of the world’s premier ski destination but we visited the town during the summer, and we loved every minute of it. Mostly the fun we had was hiking in the mountains and taking pictures of the gorgeous view from up there.

After the First World War, Berlin had this moment of glory during the twenties. Those years were so important to the city that some people call it The Golden Twenties and they are right when it comes to the name. Because of all of this, this video from the Summer of 1929 in Berlin is a special one.

Herrankukkaro used to be a fisherman’s homestead and still looks like one. It’s located in the heart of the Southwestern Finnish archipelago and you reach it from Turku in less than 30 minutes by car. This is how we got there in the middle of the summer. We had just got back from our tour of Aland and we looking forward to get back there.

Degersand seems to be the best place to stay and rest. Our stay there felt like a pause in time. Around us there was nature and in front of our small cabin we could see the largest sand beach in the Åland Islands and their famous wood heated sauna.
