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,

Welcome to 📍Kondalilla Falls Circuit A hike EV Welcome to 

📍Kondalilla Falls Circuit 

A hike EVERY Queensland traveller should know! Only 1:30 hours from Brisbane!

📌 Before we jump in, SAVE this post for your next summer day trip out of the city! 

If you’re visiting Brisbane, don’t miss Kondalilla National Park at Sunshine Coast Hinterland - worth definitely a day trip and delivers genuine Jurassic vibes! 🦖🌿 

It’s our favorite medium-effort loop for a summer swim: 
4.7km (Medium difficulty): Ancient rainforest trails, stunning views, and a deep rock pool perfect for a swim in the summer heat. 

Tip: To beat the crowds at the rock pool (especially in summer), plan to arrive before 8 AM and better on weekdays. Go early morning or during the off-season! 

Which one is your favorite Australian waterfall hike? 😊

The BIGGEST LIE about living abroad? That every The BIGGEST LIE about living abroad? 

That every weekend looks like a travel reel 😅🫣 

Yes, we live in a scenic paradise - But just like you, weekends usually mean a laundry session, trying to decide who has to go to the grocery store, and watching TV on Sunday night 

It’s not every free minute scenic hikes and bucket list adventures. The real transformation is living in a place where the beach is just 30 minutes away 🥹

What is the most ‚boring‘ thing you did this weekend that you actually loved? 

Who can relate? 🙋🏻🙋🏼‍♀️ 
Where are our fellow Europeans living abroad? 🙌🏻

For everyone who wants epic views but zero pain le For everyone who wants epic views but zero pain legs: 
📌 These are 3 ultimate easy-medium hikes you should add to your Australia bucket list! 

If your goal is scenic views without needing an intense, multi-day trek, these three trails deliver world-class views for an achievable effort: 

1. North Gorge Coastal Walk 🌅 
Effort: Minimal, 2 km 
Reward: Dramatic coastal cliffs and wide ocean views- no hiking boots needed. You can spot dolphins, rays and sea turtels! 
Details: Located on North Stradbroke Island, Queensland. The best chance to spot whales is from June to November, especially from the eastern lookouts. Go early morning or late afternoon for softer light and fewer people.

2. Kondalilla Falls Circuit 💦 
Effort: Low (easy loop with a some steps) 4,7 km 
Reward: A beautiful waterfall and a rock pool - perfect for cooling off.
Details: Found in Sunshine Coast Hinterland. The trail is well-maintained and clearly marked, making it ideal for families. Go after rainfall for the most impressive water flow, and bring swimwear if the weather’s warm.

3. Pinnacle Hike 🌄 
Effort: Moderate (one short but steady climb) 4,2 km
Reward: One of the best panoramic sunrise views in the area, reached in about 90 minutes of hiking.
Details: Go on a weekday before 7 a.m. to avoid crowds and catch the sunrise in peace. 

Which of these hikes are you adding to your 2026 bucket list? SAVE so you don’t forget these spots! 😊
