WAIT, what?! This was one year ago? Seems like forever ago and like yesterday at the same time. 😍☀️🗻This is still one of my favorite pictures. Mount Pico at sundown.

I’d go back to the Azores in a heartbeat and totally recommend it as a travel destination!

LOOKING FOR ADVENTURE,
Vulcano Pico, Pico Island, Azores, Portugal

Vulcano Pico has a moody and mysterious character. Within minutes changes its appearance and often hides behind clouds.

When it does show its 2.351 meters the highest point of Portugal rises above the Atlantic, ready to be explored.

AZORES CLICHÉ
Terceira, Azores, Portugal

"Wherever you go, someone already put a cow there."

Cows. Fields. Hydrangea. As far as the eye can reach.
Welcome to the typical Azores view!

Sometimes you have to climb steep paths or crawl low, to find amazing landscapes. This is Caro "behind the scenes" at Misterios Negros on Terceira Island.

SHARED PATH,
Misterios Negros, Terceira Island, Acores, Portugal

"I grant you permission to walk here."
As I walk through the misterious forests and swamps I feel like these old trees are allowing me to step on their land. Nature is showing full controle and strength in this breathtaking misty landscape. Untouched nature. Small and almost not noticable paths where we have to watch our every step. Moss and small ponds tell us how this high plateau of Terceira Island is defined by rain and clouds.
Lucky for us, only a few drops of rain appeared during our hike, which made walking a lot safer.

WOW, we did an amazing misty hike today! Through jungle-like forests and swamp, across lava fields, over roots and under branches. Pictures will follow!

MOONSCAPE LIGHTHOUSE,
Ponta dos Capelinhos, Faial, Acores, Portugal

10 months of ashes and shaking. Until today only a few dry plants are starting to grow back in this devastating and fascinating landscape.

In 1957 the shape of the Faial Island in the west was changed. The later named "Ponta dos Capelinhos" is a new and young vulcano which erupted from the ocean, attaching its lava and ashes to the main land of Faial.

The partly in ashes covered lighthouse is not standing at the cliffs as it used to. Now it's marking the former end of the coast, before natural forces changed its appearance.

I've never seen a landscape which looks as deserted as the moon surface.

SWIMMING CLASS IN THE ATLANTIC
Lajes do Pico, Azores, Portugal

Not what I expected. If I hadn't taken this photo myself, I'd think it was photoshopped or taken in an Aquarium.

In the middle of the Atlantic the water was COMPLETELY flat the day I went out on a small boat last week. Reflecting everything, showing dolphins and turtles in the clear water right by our side and making it very easy to spot whales. Incredible experience!

I feel so lucky I got to see multiple fin whales (2nd biggest animal), a family (!) of s***m whales, round-head dolphins and common dolphins. Including this mother teaching her baby to jump and swim. Plus, we had a perfect view on Mount Pico.

Have you ever seen dolphins and whales out in the sea?

DEEP DOWN, Lagoa das Eguas, São Miguel, Azores

For me this view is breathtaking and majestic. This small crater lake lies along a nice hiking trail on São Miguel. It's not that big compared to others, but the landscape looks so different and surreal.

I invite you to come with me on this adventure of exploring the islands of the Azores! If you like what you see, please comment and share.

YELLOW FLOWERS, Azores
- Rough coast, strong waves and beauty.

Water as far as the eye can see and the sound of the waves washing over rocks here in beautiful Mosteiros. In the middle of the Atlantic, São Miguel is the main island of the archipelago of the Azores.

I invite you to come with me on this adventure of exploring the islands! If you like what you see, feel free to comment and share.

YESSS! I managed to look through the first 1.500 photos (only 1,5 weeks at the Azores, guys!) and picked the first ones I want to share with you. There will be a lot of water, coast and volcanos. 🌊🏝🗻☀️ Stay patient!
