Riding the Wave in the Center of Munich

The Travel Junkie

Thetraveljunkie.org – We talked about how much we liked to travel and get to know other places and dreams about working and spending all our days on traveling. Now, two years down the line, we get to do so because of our blogs. We love going to a new city and opening our eyes to see the people, the architecture, the art and the magic that exists the place you have never been to before. We will keep on dreaming and thinking about all the different places that we still have to discover with our smartphone camera in hand.

Memories From Kokoda Memorial Walk (1000 Steps)

The Travel Junkie

Thetraveljunkie.org – Sun touching our skin. Now is this time of the year that we rescue those summer feelings that bring happy memories to us, but the truth is that we want to create new ones! That’s why we begin the summer with these memories of our last trip to Kokoda Memorial Walk (1000 Steps), an institution for fitness enthusiasts across Melbourne. Making the 3km trek one of the most popular spots in the Dandenong Ranges National Park, but its steep terrain is not to be underestimated. But this suits many just fine who are often preparing to undertake the real “Kokoda Track”.

Spectacular Views of Cape Schanck National Park

The Travel Junkie

Thetraveljunkie.org – A few weeks ago we spent a day at Cape Schanck National Park, the most southern tip of the Mornington Peninsula at the meeting of Bass Strait and Western Port. It has been protected since the 1800’s and was made a national park in 1988 and offers spectacular scenery. We love visiting different spots in Victoria and especially those that we haven’t been to before, it always makes us think that you don’t have to travel far to see amazing things. And, the cool weather means the days are much more enjoyable and we finally have time to do stuff we haven’t managed to do so already.

An Untouristy Place in Pekalongan

The Travel Junkie

Thetraveljunkie.org – Pekalongan is full of heritage, textures and different places to see. We have never been to a place with a wooden-boat industry like this small area of Pekalongan full of giant wooden-boats, that blends in with the river that flows out to the ocean. It’s a thousand light years from any place we’ve ever seen. This is one of our favourite spots in Pekalongan, Central Java. You’ll find this to be an untouristy place with an amazing culture and view.
