The 2023 summer season is slowly coming into swing and the balloon festival at Krefeld last weekend marked the start! Easter Sunday morning, we had a fantastic flight in a north-westerly direction… but see for yourself! ;-) Sunday evening offered another chance to enjoy some awesome views, with a night glow on Saturday completing the [...]
Our second big adventure of 2023 led us to Lapland! Together with my good friend Tommie from Friesland, I was lucky enough to join Edcar’s team from Hot-R Ballonvaarten for a fantastic journey across the Arctic Circle. Meeting near Hamburg, we took the ferry from Kiel to Gothenburg and crossed all Sweden by car. The [...]
Last weekend, it was time to get out our little Raven Aurora balloon again for a beautiful winter flight! One hour twenty minutes fly-in to our homebase, walking home, retrieving the balloon with our second car and a quickly borrowed trailer, and then fetching back the first car. Great fun! =) [...]
After three short episodes in the previous years, this year it was time for a full week of mountain madness: The ‘International Ballooning Week’ at Filzmoos in all its glory! =) For this occasion, we teamed up with Dutch Tommie and Cas, both of whom we had met years ago at the International Youth Camp [...]

Best way to start a new week! Yesterday, we enjoyed a wonderful gasballoon flight from Stuttgart to Krumbach, with over 8 hours in the air and beautiful views of the city of Ulm, the majestic Alps in the distance, and of course the magical winter landscape. What a treat! :-) [...]
Oh what a year! =) The adventures of 2022 have truly left us speechless, from the snowy Filzmoos mountains to the fascinating Saudi Arabian desert, from the golden fields of Umbria to the stunning mass ascents at Albuquerque… this may very well be our best ballooning year ever. We want to express our heartfelt thanks [...]
The passion of a lifetime: To behold the stunning beauty of our world like no one else, free like a bird, high in the sky, yet one with nature, using the oldest principle of flight known to man: Lighter than air.
No wings, no noise, no pressure… just serenity, just perfect bliss. At one with the elements… at one with yourself.
This is why we live A LIFE OF BALLOONING.
