After I decided to travel to Japan, hiking on Mount Fuji has become a must. It’s located in Honshu Island and is the highest mountain in Japan at 3,776m (12,3897ft). It’s also the highest mountain I have ever been so far. Because I was there with another two friends and colleagues, I have decided to hike on the Yoshida Trail, which… Read more →
I initially wanted to hike in Spain on the Santiago de Compostela but when I heard my friend that he is going on the Via Alpina in Switzerland, I decided to changed my plans.

This year I’ve seen some great documentaries about the environment, globalisation, consumption, global economy, food, industrialisation, technology. But… Read more →
