All that was once published about me somewhere.
17 Min.Sabbaticals against office boredom come in all forms, but the training as a ranger in Kruger National Park in South Africa is the platinum variant. An regrettably much too short report of this experience.
2 Min.My photo of the golden monastery Rangiri Vihara made it to the cover of Terra magazine. The cave temple of Dambulla looks back on a history of about 2000 years.
20 Min.Aboard the research vessel ‘Resolute’, I lent a hand as a temporary scientist and helped collect data. The expedition took us through the Canadian Arctic to the breathtaking fjords of Greenland.
16 Min.Exploring the wilderness on foot in the midst of lions, elephants and buffalo? You can learn to do that. In summer 2019, I will join a field guide course in South Africa.
21 Min.Together with my wife Annette and our daughters Amelie and Smilla, we are looking for big adventures and discoveries off the beaten track on Borneo. And indeed, for weeks we can hardly stop being amazed.
< 1 Min.To the centre of the earth! German photographer Malte Clavin is one of the few who was able to take part in what is probably one of the most adventurous photo tours in the world, the Son Doong expedition.
13 Min.To the center of the earth! The most spectacular trip I’ve ever done: the Son Doong cave expedition in Vietnam. First, it’s through leech-infested jungle. Then, abseiling down into the cave, over sharp rocks, through underground lakes, gigantic shafts. Absolutely breathtaking!
5 Min.My photo of fishermen on Inle Lake was published in the American gourmet magazine SAVEUR.
14 Min.It’s off to a good start: sunburn, heat stroke, insect bites. Broken leg, dehydration, diarrhoea. Ida Vincent of Biosphere Expeditions initiates nearly a dozen dedicated conservationists from Germany, Austria, Italy, the US and Australia into the hazards of the Sumatran jungle.
3 Min.I wouldn’t have dreamed of it a few years ago either: me in the newspaper BILD: “Barren gorges alternating with densely overgrown rainforests. Low-hanging clouds make the shots seem mystical.”
30 Min.Ancient royal cities, endless sandy beaches, luxuriant flowers and exotic animals – the name Sri Lanka justifiably means “shining land”. The island in the Indian Ocean was our dream destination. I spent five months in Sri Lanka with my wife Annette and our daughters Amelie and Smilla.
17 Min.Ancient royal cities, endless sandy beaches, lush blossoms and exotic animals – the name Sri Lanka rightly means “radiant shining land”. The island in the Indian Ocean was our dream destination. I spent five months in Sri Lanka with my wife Annette and our daughters Amelie and Smilla. A family adventure full of intense impressions.
