Either natural or historic sites, visiting each place never ceases to amaze us. That's why Hermann and I keep traveling. One quote by Hilaire Belloc describes us: "We wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfillment".

American Basin, Lake City, Colorado, USA

In the middle of nowhere, in Lake City, Colorado, colorful wildflowers cover the valley in American Basin from mid-July to early August. It's an amazing landscape with a profusion of different species of flowers - Indian paintbrush, Parry's Primrose, Columbine, Larkspur, Old Man of the Mountain, to name a few.

Wildflowers of Colorado

We find amazing wildflowers when hiking. The best part is when we discover rare species as well as finding meadows full of colorful varieties. Timing is the key, we are not always lucky.

Hermann and I love to garden. We created our own oasis that we, our friends and the birds enjoy from spring to fall. 

Food is part of the experience when traveling. That first bite of food that you haven't had before will either broaden your tastes or will leave a bad impression. Just keep an open mind, you might be surprised at what you will discover.
