Steppps – Friedenspilgern

The Buddhists turn around the Stupas clockwise. The Muslims always turn against the clock. Where does it come from? Knowing that the earth turns east it seems, that the Moslems have the right direction. But this is a way of looking on or into it. Facing the planet from outside, from the univers, with the […]

Last morning I went again to the Stupa. Sooo good. Packing and then we met with some friends for breakfast at Sumits and Tanri’s cafe. No-one could leave early from Leh, so also I can’t. Sumit gives last instructions where do bring or let bring the tent and camping gears After using, which I can […]

Dear friends, I am still in Leh. Surprise, also for me. After organising everything for the next 475km, after meeting new friends, after writing all the articles in the blog, I felt, that I have also to rest. Just resting. And I did. So good. So tomorrow I continue walking and from tomorrow, I am […]

Dear friends. For the next four weeks I do not have internet. I am walking 475km through the Himalayas crossing some high passes. But following a street. So don’t worry. I got fantastic help from some people who know the area. So they lent me tent and sleeping bag and mat. Got also very good […]

Welcoming in Leh was just great. Lots of thinks came together here. Kesava organized a place to stay. And new friends showed up. Also Katarina and Lukas, cyclists, which I met earlier on the road, are still in Leh. ……. But the most amazing ‚thing‘ in Leh is the super beautiful walkin Stupa. I earlier […]

It’s still 36 km to Leh. So I say good bye to Kesava. I will see him tomorrow. I can’t walk that far and I started the day to late for this. After seing the Zanskar river flowing into the Indus the street went up to Magnetic Hill. After I thought, I am on the […]

The journey continues. After some km two different ways. One is towards Alchi, a old monestary close to the Indus. One is along the main road. I kind of feel attracted to see Alchi, but it’s early and it’s not far and it would mean, to stay in Alchi….. I ask my heart, what to […]

In Lamayuru I met a very nice chinese guy. He mentioned, that I also could leave the road to hike on sideways. But I decided to stay on the road, first I do not need another adventure, but mainly I wanted to walk more at the Indus. The road went spectacular in a zic zak […]

Somehow after leaving Mulbekh I hear a echo inside me. I hear a friend of mine, Elisabeth. It’s a conversation from 15 to 18 years ago, which I never before remembered. She talked in a gathering with another friend about Ladakh. Because they went into detail and I did not have a map with me, […]
