Our special tip: Travel and excursion bloggers Kristina and Tom from adventuremo from Salzburg

Kristina and Tom love to travel the world - including and especially their (adopted) home of Salzburg! They like to take us and their now huge fan base with them on their tours and report about them with great texts, pictures and valuable tips on their blog "adventuremo.de" and also on social media .

We were allowed to interview the two adventurers and this is how they answered:

familienausflug.info: Who are you and where are you from?

adventuremo: Hi, we are Kristina and Tom, we live with our three boys in Salzburg , our adopted home (for over 15 years). There is always something going on here, we love being in nature, hiking, biking, climbing or exploring the area on our longboards.

On our blog we write about our outdoor experiences and travels with our three children , give lots of tips about equipment and want to encourage as many families as possible to get out and explore new corners of this beautiful world. When the twins were born, our world was turned upside down, but we quickly realized that even with three small children, everything we love is still possible. But because it's still a bit of a challenge, there's even a separate category on the topic of twins .

familienausflug.info: How long has your profile/blog been around and how did you come up with the idea to start the whole thing?

adventuremo : After Mo was born, lots of people told us that we were so active and kept asking how we planned it, how we chose our tours and what we could recommend . So Tom, while on maternity leave, came up with the idea of ​​starting a blog and giving a few insights into our lives.

Our blog www.adventuremo.de has been around for 4 years, our Instagram profile not so long, but here we take you into our world almost every day and on numerous excursions , even those for which we do not have time to describe in detail on the blog.

We have also been available as a podcast “Adventure|Stories” for a year now; let’s see what else we come up with in the coming years.

familienausflug.info: What makes Salzburg so special and worth living in for you?

adventuremo : We are not city people - never have been. Too loud, too much, too dirty, too little greenery. But the countryside isn't really for us either - also because we are tied to the city full-time. Salzburg is a wonderful compromise - you have the advantages of the city, are surrounded by beautiful mountains and crystal-clear lakes . As a 19-year-old, I immediately fell in love with the city and we love being here.

familienausflug.info: Our readers should definitely visit you because…?

adventuremo : If you have children , enjoy being outdoors in nature, are looking for inspiration for excursions or want to learn a few things about sustainability and environmental protection , we warmly invite you to stop by. We are always looking forward to interacting with our readers and are happy to exchange experiences.
