Machland - Stift Melk - Tulln - Wien

For the first time, a complete day almost without rain that my shoes could dry!

I started in the Machland. From there I cycled via Melk through some wine-growing areas to Wien, where I also had one rest day to explore the city.

Ciocănești - Viziru

I might have overdone it with breakfast and lunch today—0.5kg of muesli, 0.5 liters of milk, and two bananas left me feeling quite bloated. After that, I could barely bend over due to my swollen stomach!

The landscape became increasingly picturesque after passing Călărași, with more horses appearing along the roadside, adding to the charm of the journey. In the evening, I got lucky when a rain front could not reach me. To top it off, I met some very hospitable Romanians who kindly invited me into their home. Although they only spoke Romanian, we managed to communicate using the iTranslate app.

Transalp 2013

Der Aufstieg durch die Val d'Uina Schlucht verläuft auf einem schönen in den Fels geschlagenen Weg mit mehreren Tunnel. Von diesem aus hat man einen herrlichen Ausblick auf die Schlucht. Vom Schlinigpass geht es auf Schotterwegen hinunter ins Tal.

Auf dem weiteren Weg wurden wir von mehreren kurzen, aber heftigen Regenschauern unterbrochen, welche am Spätnachmittag in einem Gewitter endeten. Daher konnten wir Trafoi nicht mehr erreichen und mussten die Nacht im Biwak bei Regen verbringen.

Everest Basecamp Trek (EBC): Cheplung - Namche Bazar

The trek to Namche Bazar featured numerous suspension bridges and a strenuous climb at the end. Upon reaching our destination, we took a well-deserved acclimatization day to adjust to the altitude and prepare for the journey ahead.
