Abenteuer, Natur und Freiheit. Mit uns die Welt entdecken

Hey, ich bin Vanessa und stehe hinter ByTraveletters – Schön, dass du hier bist!

Vor kurzem haben wir unser nächstes großes Abenteuer begonnen: Ein Umzug nach Australien – mindestens für die nächsten zwei Jahre. Davor haben wir acht Monate in den USA verbracht und unzählige beeindruckende Orte an der Ost- und Westküste entdeckt. Diese Erlebnisse, unsere Liebe zur Natur und das Gefühl von Freiheit auf Reisen möchte ich hier auf meinem Blog mit dir teilen.

Als Travel Creator liegt es mir sehr am Herzen, dich mit meinen Texten, Fotos und Videos zu inspirieren und zu ermutigen. Ich liebe es, atemberaubende Landschaften zu erkunden, wilde Tiere in ihrer natürlichen Umgebung zu beobachten und mich tief in die Planung neuer Reisen zu stürzen.

Von der Unterkunft bis hin zu einzigartigen Orten, die nicht in jedem Reiseführer stehen – Ich liebe es, jedes Detail zu recherchieren und unvergessliche Erlebnisse zusammenzustellen. Dabei ist es mir besonders wichtig, nicht nur bekannte Bucket List Orte zu besuchen, sondern auch weniger bekannte, aber ebenso spektakuläre Plätze zu entdecken – genau diese Mischung findest du hier.

Besonders Roadtrips haben für mich eine einzigartige Magie – das Gefühl, einfach loszufahren und völlig verschiedene Orte zu entdecken.

Doch es geht uns nicht nur darum, Orte zu zeigen. Mit unseren Inhalten möchten wir die Atmosphäre und das Gefühl eines Ortes einfangen, damit du schon beim Lesen und Schauen für einen Moment dort sein kannst. Wir möchten dich mitnehmen und dich vielleicht sogar ein kleines bisschen aus dem Alltag entführen.

Neben dem Reisen ist meine zweite Leidenschaft das Zeichnen. Ich erstelle minimalistische Illustrationen rund um das Thema Reisen, um besondere Orte und Erlebnisse auf eine einzigartige Weise festzuhalten. Falls du neugierig bist, schau dort gerne vorbei. 

Wenn du dich also zufällig für Abenteuer, Natur und besondere Reiseerlebnisse begeisterst, bist du hier genau richtig. Ich teile unsere Lieblingsorte, Geheimtipps und persönliche Empfehlungen für außergewöhnliche Unterkünfte und Orte – Alles mit dem Ziel, dich zu inspirieren und dir die Planung deiner eigenen Reisen zu erleichtern.

Wenn unsere Tipps und Inspirationen dir bei deiner nächsten Reise helfen oder dich auf neue Ideen bringen, freut uns das umso mehr! 

Viel Spaß beim Stöbern – wenn du Fragen hast oder dich austauschen möchtest, melde dich sehr gerne.

Für noch mehr Eindrücke und aktuelle Reiseabenteuer schau doch gerne auf unserem Instagram – Account @bytraveletters vorbei – wir freuen uns auf dich!

Eure,

Über uns

In Broome, the tides are everything! 

📌 Before we jump in make sure to SAVE these details for your Broome visit! 

Every single spot completely transforms depending on when you go. Here’s your cheat sheet:

1️⃣ Simpson Beach: Make sure to visit at high tide! That’s when the contrast really pops — the trees look like they’re floating in the light blue sea.

2️⃣ Coconut Rockpools: If you want to actually lie in the rock pools, come at high tide — but always be Crocwise! 🐊 And at low tide, the same spot transforms into something out of another world.

3️⃣ Gantheaume Point: Go at the lowest tide of the day, so you can see the dinosaur footprints! 🦖 At high tide, the rock pools fill up - but you’ll need a tide of at least +8-9 meters to see them at their best.

The best Rockpool there: 
It is also the hardest to find and requires a bit of climbing down the rocks. 

Usually, it is quite calm, but a strong tide or very high tides can cause waves to come in and overfill the pool. A reminder to use caution when visiting these spots. 

📍Location: Head all the way down the path to the point and turn left. You will need to walk left for a few hundred metres. Check along the rocks closest to the coastline to see if you can spot the rock pool below you. It is then a bit of a climb down the rocks to reach the pool.

Welcome to the most underrated hike in Karijini National Park! 

📍Knox Gorge I Western Australia 
🥾 2km return hike 
🚐 7 hours from Exmouth

📌 Before we jump in, make sure to SAVE this gem for later! (Stick around @yourscenicmiles for more bucket list places  like this in Australia)

Most people hit the more well-known trails, but honestly, this one is an absolute highlight! Especially once the sun comes out, the pool turns completely turquoise and the gorge walls glow red! 🥹

Tip: Don’t start this hike too late - but not too early either. Once the sun falls into the gorge, everything lights up beautifully. You don’t want to miss that.

Also: after the hike into the gorge, walk right - there’s another pool that glows just as blue! 💙

Would you take a swim here?

⛰️ For mountain lover: Mount Bruce (Grade 5, 9km return)

This is the most impressive hike in New South Wales! 😍 

📌 Before we jump in, make sure to SAVE this for your own adventure so you don’t get lost! Believe us you’ll NEED these tips!

Honestly? I was seconds away from just sitting down in the dirt and don’t hike further! After the last km on this trail, my legs were completely done!

So we completely underestimated this hike
The natural infinity pools on the top of this waterfall are dreamy (bring swim clothes) but the end of the trail is way harder than most people expect.

📍 Fortress Creek Falls Trail | Blue Mountains
🚐 Only 1:45 hour from Sydney 

What you need to know:
1️⃣ It’s longer than AllTrails says (we tracked ~9.8 km return) 
2️⃣ It’s ranked Grade 5 in Australia for a reason 
3️⃣Very rocky, uneven & technical
4️⃣ The last kilometer is the hardest (steep downhill, no official trail, technical)

The view and pools are unreal! But please don’t take this hike too easy - especially if you’re not used to steep, technical trails!

Would you do a Grade 5 hike to reach this spot?
