Our Journey Has Begun!
Sven Walther
For about two weeks now, we’ve done it – we’re now traveling full-time and living wherever we want to be.
The big day was the week before last – we handed over our sold house and moved into the Mammothon with a lot of last-minute stress. Since I had many off-site appointments that particular week for work, most of the load was on Saskia – sorry 🫤
Speaking of work – our first drive took us to Messe Berlin, where I was exhibiting. We stayed on a parking lot in Grunewald – just a short walk from the exhibition halls – an exciting day.

After work, we headed south – we want to take things slowly, so we stopped relatively early near Hof and found a little gem of a spot – including some nice chats with curious passersby.

The next day we headed to our daughter in Kempten (well, almost directly – Garmin and I probably won’t become friends…), where we stayed on a parking lot that isn’t used on weekends, until it was time to continue to a client meeting on Monday.
After the meeting, we drove just a few kilometers to our old hometown near Landsberg am Lech and were lucky to stay on a pasture belonging to a farmer – an organic farm, with cows and their calves right next to us.

While we were here, I also rebuilt the motorcycle platform – the previous design didn’t fit our two bikes. Now they’re perfectly secured.
Long planned, we then continued to the Knights’ Tournament at Kaltenberg Castle – we arrived early and due to a few coincidences, we were allowed by the stewards to park up top with the exhibitors, just a short walk from the entrance. We met up with our daughter and watched mighty knights in their tournament – just like the first time around 30 years ago and a few times in between. Always a pleasure.

We then headed to the Black Forest for a short stop at KLATrucks – a new air horn was installed and a few maintenance tasks were taken care of.

Our final (for now) current location is the Wilder Kaiser near the Bergdoktor filming locations – but not without a short stop in Landsberg am Lech to keep the drive manageable.

And now we’re parked on a farm high above Ellmau / Going with a view of the mountains – at least as much as the current rain front allows. We’ve hiked to the filming locations of the Bergdoktor and even made it up to the alpine pasture.
