Aventuras Únicas Expedições de Iate Explore Comunicações Sobre Nós EN PT NL Início - Comunicações - Travelling Responsible Travelling Responsible January-2020 We put together 10 important guidelines for being a responsible experiential travel and making attentive choices in every aspect of your own adventure. Responsible travel can be achieved by being responsible and making the correct choices. Learning to travel mindful and more responsibly will reduce our direct impact on the environment and ecological diversities. We truly believe that, as travel specialists, we have an increased responsibility to communicate to our consumers how to implement responsible practices. Our vacations, adventures and expeditions are hand-crafted by us taking in consideration good practices and giving great opportunities to learn, develop and thrust frontiers of responsible travel experiences. In Jasper Sigon’s own words when it comes to his adventures, “For me personal, my journey starts with the goal of integrate myself into new cultures and traditions or learning a new skill set.” It should not be crossing a checklist, but instead focus on the experience, strive to educate yourself and become well informed and create a responsibility for wildlife, ecological conservations and cultures of our beautiful planet and at the end pass it to the others - that’s the ultimate goal. Therefore, we have put together the following guidelines to see how we create a positive impact on responsible travel as new or experienced adventures. Research travel organizations that pursue responsible travel as a core value We try to implement responsible practices to our journeys and adventures, considering the emissions caused by flights, vehicles, marine voyages and accommodation stays. We try to reduce and optimize at the source, calculating our footprint and supporting habitat conservation and restoration projects around the world. Plan Responsible Journeys Avoid mass tourism destinations that are highly frequently visited. This is the first purposeful decision to make in your journeys towards a responsible travel. We always research destinations that most of the times are “below the radar”, and maybe even closure to home than you can possibly think, enabling us to travel to remote parts of the planet with a reduced impact on ecological diversities. Extend your travelling Extending your journey provides the opportunity to involve yourself in a destination’s culture and traditions. This creates a connection with the place you are visiting, rather spending your time in short periods in multiple destinations. Create a feeling that you belong somewhere just as home. Travel a bit slower A concept we indulge is an elegant and tender journey through a country or a region that allows you to interact with its culture and lets you understand your surroundings. The increase for environmentally friendly transport makes it easier than ever to travel a bit slower, for example by train or boat by an extraordinary network of historical tracks and rivers, specially through Europe. Smart packing Reducing the consumption of plastic goods is already a huge step, but by packing your luggage with only your necessary for your journey you are able to reduce your waste, try to use reusables such as the reusable water bottles that you can refill throughout your journey. Eco-valuable accommodations When we are planning a journey, we perform an extensive research to the properties and accommodations we provide, we pay attention to their location and how they contribute to their local communities. Another part we do in supporting the local community, is introducing our clients to the local chefs that transform their local products in culinary highlights. Unique Excursions that support the local economy We strive to make sure we work together with local specialists and companies that contribute to the local economy. From our experience this is also the best way to provide an understanding and appreciation of the region and landscapes you are visiting, alongside those that know their surroundings the best. Support local charities Combining our journeys with the support to local charities is the ultimate way to learn about the challenges faced by the local populations. By helping them to overcome these challenges is one of the most impactful things we can do during a journey. By dedicating a bit of our time and expertise together with local organisations we can put the focus even more on conservation and environmental protection, teaching and discussing awareness about its wildlife can result in such a deep impact to protect the natural world for the next generation to come. Think about interaction with wildlife outside their natural surroundings The most impactful choice you can make as a traveller is to be aware of how you interact with wildlife and do not support organisations that use wildlife for human entertainment. We do not support sanctuaries and zoos that cause harm and trauma to animals. We highly advise against support of any type to organisation that promote riding elephants, taking pictures or walking with tigers and lions in cages, swimming with captive dolphins, or keeping wildlife for human entertainment. We have an obligation to be the voice for those that cannot talk our language and to stand for the welfare of any animal. It is our responsibility to do our background research in supporting any organisation that cares about the health, welfare and future of our wildlife and ecological diversities around the globe. < Previous Article Next Article > RNAVT 7818 Empresa registada em Portugal Política de Privacidade Termos e Condições > Contacte-nos info@voyagesjourneys.com +351 917 800 008
- Talkies Man Magazine
Home - V&J in Press - Talkies Man Magazine Talkies Man Magazine April-2023 Als travel curatoren stellen zij zorgvuldig op maat gemaakte reizen samen voor uiteenlopende cliënten. - Marina de Massiac - Portugese duo Jasper Sigon en Vanessa Mestre richtte een aantal jaar geleden het exclusieve reisbureau Voyages & Journeys op. Als travel curatoren stellen zij vanuit hun hoofdkantoor in Lissabon zorgvuldig op maat gemaakte reizen samen voor uiteenlopende cliënten. Of een klant nu vijfduizend euro betaalt of honderd keer meer, het einddoel blijft hetzelfde voor het avontuurlijke duo: 'cliënten moeten thuiskomen met een hoofd vol onuitwisbare indrukken en mooie verhalen’ , aldus Jasper Sigon. Waarom zijn jullie een reisbureau begonnen? ‘We hebben allebei een achtergrond in de energiesector. Onze banen brachten ons op de meest afgelegen en hardcore locaties ter wereld. In 2015 ben ik van functie gewisseld, hiervoor werd ik permanent in Nederland gestationeerd, dit bracht logistieke moeilijkheden met zich mee: Vanessa werkte in Portugal en het land waarin haar project zich bevond, terwijl ik in Nederland zat. In onze vrije tijd spraken we af in Düsseldorf, Frankfurt of Parijs om elkaar te kunnen zien. Tijdens een mooie wandeling in het Portugese Serra da Estrela besloot ik dat ik niet verder wilde met mijn baan. We zijn toen gaan reizen door Zuidoost-Azië en het Midden-Oosten. Eenmaal terug sloeg de realiteit toe: ik moest geld gaan verdienen.’ Het fundament voor jullie bedrijf werd gelegd. ‘Niet direct. Ik ben Uber-chauffeur in Lissabon geworden om rond te komen. Ik reed een jong stel rond dat meer van Portugal wilde zien gedurende een aantal dagen. Ik stelde een reis voor ze samen waarin ze mooie bezienswaardigheden bezochten, culinaire hoogtepunten beleefden en wijn proefden. Een aantal maanden later kwamen ze terug met de hele familie om twee weken lang door Portugal te toeren. Ik vond dit zo leuk dat we op een gegeven moment meer dan driehonderd reizen per jaar binnen Portugal organiseerden. Op dat moment werd het fundament van ons bedrijf gelegd. Later volgden er mooie reizen in Marrakesh, de Sahara en Schotland.’ Waar streven jullie naar met jullie bureau? ‘Waar het ons om gaat is dat onze cliënten hun perspectief op reizen veranderen. We zijn geen reisadviseurs die reispakketten samenstellen waarin de cliënt van a naar b reist. We kleuren ver buiten het hokje. Cliënten moeten thuiskomen met een hoofd vol onuitwisbare indrukken en mooie verhalen.’ Niks is dus te gek? ‘In feite zijn out of the box aanvragen onze specialiteit. We organiseren veel jachtexpedities. Natuurlijk kun je dan op de Mediterraanse zee of het Caribische gebied varen, maar wij denken graag out of the box. Zo nemen we onze cliënten graag mee naar de Noordwestelijke doorgang, de verborgen marinebasis in Kroatië, de witte woestijn of Antarctica. De jachten die we charteren zijn van alle luxe voorzien, zo komt het weleens voor dat er een helikopter aan boord is of een onderzeeër waarmee we een remote destination kunnen bezoeken. Volgend jaar zullen we met onze exclusieve partner Ocean Sky Cruises op een milieubewuste manier reizen organiseren naar de Noordpool.' Milieuvriendelijk reizen lijkt haast de nieuwe norm te zijn. Houden jullie daar rekening mee? ‘Het conserveren van ecosystemen staat voorop en is een van onze kernwaarden. We geloven erin dat je milieubewust de wereld kunt ontdekken. Over de jaren heen hebben we een netwerk opgebouwd waarin we met veertig conserveringsprojecten in contact zijn gekomen. We koppelen onze cliënten op drie verschillende manieren aan de instanties. Door middel van een donatie in de vorm van tijd of geld kunnen ze bijdragen aan een mooiere toekomst. De verbinding tussen mens en natuur is zó belangrijk. Neem nu het volgende voorbeeld: gedurende een verblijf op het Filipijnse eiland Palawan planden we een excursie naar Bacuit Bay. We bevonden ons twintig meter onder water. Dichtbij zwommen er vijf walvishaaien met ons mee. Toen we eenmaal boven water waren moesten we een uur bijkomen, zó mooi en onwerkelijk was het moment onder water geweest.’ Tot slot: gaan jullie over tien jaar de ruimte in? ‘Ik had niet verwacht dat het daadwerkelijk plaats zou gaan vinden, maar in 2025 gaan we in samenwerking met onze exclusieve partner Space Perspective de ruimte in. De oprichters van het bedrijf, Jane Poynter en Taber MacCallum hebben een project op poten weten te krijgen dat de hele wereld zal verrassen. Op een hele comfortabele manier passagiers de ruimte in krijgen is iets wat tot de verbeelding spreekt. Op dertig kilometer afstand van de aarde zal men gedurende zes uur in de Spaceship Neptune van een panoramisch uitzicht kunnen genieten in een zeer ruime, comfortabele cabine. De in Miami gevestigde horecaondernemer David Grutman zal passagiers voorzien van een trendy F&B ervaring.’ We leren Jasper en Vanessa kennen tijdens een reis naar Portugal. Het duo koos voor het interview een bijzondere plek uit bij een van hun zorgvuldig geselecteerde partners: het Herdade de Malhadinha Nova hotel. Gelegen in de vrij onbekende Portugese Alentejostreek. Vanessa komt van origine uit Portugal, maar laat zich ondanks het feit dat ze half Portugees is onverminderd aangenaam verrassen door de originaliteit en het ronduit rustgevende landschap van het hotel. Het duo selecteert voor haar cliënten een select aantal accommodaties waar oog voor detail een prominente plek in beslag neemt omdat het naar eigen zeggen een reflectie van hun geboden service moet zijn. Het gros van de accommodaties wordt in eerste instantie bezocht en getest op kwaliteit om zo cliënten van een premium ervaring te voorzien.' < Previous Article Next Article >
- REV Ocean is on a Mission | Voyages & Journeys
Home - The Numinous - REV Ocean REV Ocean is on a Mission November-2020 How to define REV Ocean REV Ocean is a 183 meters state-of-the-art expedition superyacht that will be committed to pioneering the world for oceanographic research. She will be equipped with specialized scientific equipment never seen before on a superyacht. Onboard you will find eight cutting-edge research laboratories, a fully equipped dive centre and a crane attached to a trawl that will enable her to catch pelagic samples on a responsible and safe way and release the samples 3000 metres below sea level. She will be equipped with a highly advanced range of submersibles, both autonomous and remotely operated, for extreme underwater exploration. They will be easy to launch and to recover via a 7.7 x 5 meters opening in the hull known as a Moonpool. Alongside the research space, which equates to roughly 15 tennis courts, she will have all the amenities that yacht charter guests would expect on a yacht of this calibre, including three pool areas, well-equipped gym facilities and a spa and wellness zone. There will be a 36-person auditorium on board, plus 2 helipads, an on-board helicopter and its own hangar. The force behind REV Ocean Kjell Inge Røkke is the owner and driving force behind REV Ocean. Røkke grew up close to the VARD shipyard in the little fishing town of Brattvag where currently the REV Ocean is going through her final assembly. He learned to fish in the Norwegian waters and began his career as a deckhand on board a fishing trawler in Alaska. He launched his business career with the purchase of a 21 meters trawler in the United States in 1982, and gradually built a leading worldwide fisheries business owning his own fleet of fishing vessels and American Seafoods company. He became the largest stakeholder in Aker ASA and serves as chairman of Aker ASA, as well as a director of Aker BP, Kværner, Ocean Yield, Aker BioMarine and Aker Energy. Røkke's family has lived for many years in Molde, a small town just across the water from Brattvag and he is a well-known member of the local community. Juuni Vatne, Marketing Coordinator at VARD shipyard, commented: “I think it’s a lot of pride to be here, back home, to build this vessel.” The vision of REV Ocean Mr. Røkke’s motivation to construct and fund REV Ocean comes from a lifelong reliance on the ocean. Fishing is how he initially made his fortune; and now it’s time to give back. Building REV Ocean is philanthropy in its finest form. Also, with REV Ocean he wants to encourage yacht owners go down a similar route, then his legacy will live on for decades to come. Fishing is a vital profession to Norway’s economy as a whole, with fish being one of the country’s largest exports. Norway is leading the way in the fight against climate change, with the country listed among the greenest on the planet and the second-most eco-friendly country in the world. There is an impressive team to helm the REV Ocean research team. Nina Jensen, the former head of the World Wide Fund for Nature in Norway, has been appointed the Chief Executive of REV Ocean and Oxford University's leading marine conservation scientist Alex Rogers has joined the team as Science Director. Creating the opportunity to give back REV Ocean's primary function is oceanographic research and analysis. For many research teams and scientists, the cost of hiring research vessels with similar facilities is prohibitive. Lawrence Hislop, Communication Manager at REV Ocean, define the opportunity as “The idea is to get developing countries interested in the research work as well, [giving] opportunities to scientists in Africa, Asia, Latin America, who normally wouldn’t be able to [conduct research] on a yacht like this.” This unique funding model means that charterers can directly impact positive change. By chartering REV Ocean, they will be making these research missions possible. However, she will also be available to charter to companies like ours, Voyages & Journeys, looking for an expedition adventure. These independent charters will fund directly the research missions, allowing scientists to undertake pioneering research free of charge. This is a unique opportunity for clients to accompany the research teams, participating in research and observing the work being carried out in front of them. “The main point of having this vessel is to go out and do scientific research work. And the business model is to get people to [charter REV Ocean] and follow the research work and going to beautiful parts of the world." explains Lawrence Hislop, Communication Manager at REV Ocean. REV Ocean is planning to invite up to 400 marine scientists per year to spend three to four weeks each on board studying how to protect the ocean from climate change, overfishing and plastic waste. For the REV Ocean team, “healing the ocean with data” is a core part of their ethos. By allowing the most advanced oceanographic study tools to be accessed by research teams across the globe, the initiative hopes to create a global ocean data platform for the common good. First expeditions to take place When completed, REV Ocean will set sail on her maiden voyage to Svalbard for her first scientific mission in 2021. Then will be setting course to New York in the autumn, in a journey that will coincide with the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development. It is thought she may be positioned outside the United Nations Headquarters on the East River throughout the course of the event. Heading further south towards clearer oceans of the Caribbean, she will be heading towards the Galapagos archipelago, where opportunities are optimal for studying marine life. This island chain is home to hundreds of fish species, and REV Ocean intents to put her eco-harvesting system for live catch and release of biomass and pelagic samples to good use. She is also expected to head to the Indian Ocean, cruising around the islands of the Seychelles and the Maldives. Part of her hydrographic analysis in this region will be cantered around hydrothermal vents, which are clustered around the Central Indian Ridge between the two archipelagos. Voyages & Journeys will keep you updated on the progress of REV Ocean. If, at any time, you are interested in more information about our expeditions please get in touch with us.

- Dolce Vita Esqui
Aventuras Únicas Expedições de Iate Explore Comunicações Sobre Nós EN PT NL Início - Comunicações - Skiing The Dolce Vita Way of Skiing October-2023 Besides being one of our founders’ favourite ski destinations, in January-2023, Jasper Sigon (V&J Co-Founder) returned to the amazing Super Dolomiti Ski region, together with the incredible team from the Alta Badia brand. We created a unique gourmet safari combined with epic skiing. The following narrative is written by Jasper himself to share his own experience and inspire you for the next season. After an energizing breakfast at our accommodation, the marvellous La Majun Hotel, we collected the ski gear and head up the mountain in La Villa. After a good warmup downhill on a black slope, we started skiing from one amazing slope to the other, each with breathtaking views over the Dolomites, and from one hut to the next to taste one of the new dishes from local and internationally renowned chefs, such as Norbert Niederkofler (Executive Chef at Restaurant St.Hubertus at Hotel Rosa Alpina, 3 Michelin-star and 1 green star), and Simone Cantafio (Restaurant La Stüa de Michil at Hotel La Perla, 1 Michelin-star). They brought truly outstanding cuisine to the slopes of Alta Badia at a height of 2.000m, inspired by the best products of the region, based on their own philosophy in the kitchen. True works-of-art will be presented, not only for the palate, but also for the eye. To make it even more awe inspiring, the chefs created their dishes with the focus on reducing waste and protecting our planet. On top of all of that, each dish was accompanied by South Tyrolean wine, chosen by a South Tyrolean sommelier. The next day we headed out very early and went up by snow mobile to have breakfast at 2.000m in the Las Vegas lodge. Witnessing the sun rise against the massif Dolomites is a definitely a memorable view. Afterwards, we were joined by Damian Pallestrong, a local professional slalom, alpine and cross-country skier from Alta Badia. Following a short briefing, we started The Great War Ski Tour, that stretches for 80km, to discover some of the dramatic events of the World War I (WWI). We headed out to Cortina d’Ampezzo to ski the Super 8 & Cinque Torri loop, surrounded by the splendid views of the Col di Lana, the Tofana di Rozes, the Castelletto and the Col dei Bos. Damian explained and showed us the Italian trenches of WWI and how strategical important the Dolomites were, and still are. Did you know that the technical term Alpine Skier originates from the Ladin culture? And today, they are still born alpine and cross-country skiers! We then headed to the heart of the Dolomites, the highest peak in the Alta Badia region, Mount Lagazuoi at 2.732m. On our way up with the cable car, we could clearly see the loopholes of the Italian mine tunnel and the Tre Sassi Fort on the road to the Valparola Pass. When we arrived at the summit, we directly turned right off piste to the the Austrian emplacement Feldwache 4 (FW 4), the only emplacement on the front line of WWI that can be reached on skis. It was dug into the ridge, called Muraglia Rocciosa by the Italians; a rock wall fortified by the Austro-Hungarian soldiers to defend the Lagazuoi saddle. This emplacement is a tunnel dug into the rock with two armored emplacements for machine guns and two embrasures for the observation of the areas Col dei Bos and Castelletto. After this stunning experience we descended to the Armentarola slope to continue with one of the most stunning environments of the Dolomites. The following day, it was time for the “Sommelier on the slopes ski tour”. When we stepped out of the gondola, we met with a ski instructor and professional sommelier. After a short route briefing, we set out from ski hut to ski hut. From top wine to top wine, a true wine ski safari or in Ladin language, De dl Vin. Involving truly mesmerizing skiing on Alta Badia's slopes, combined with the chance to taste South Tyrol's finest wines at the most outstanding mountain huts, such as, Ütia de Bioch, Club Moritzino, Ütia I Tablá, Ütia Las Vegas Lodge, Ütia Lé, Ütia Tamá and Ütia Pic Pré. While enjoying our wines we could admire the Dolomites from our seats. The perfect way to kick off any winter season dedicated to excellent skiing, food and wine in style. Do you want to experience the Dolce Vita way of skiing?

- Tempus Magazine
Home - V&J in Press - Tempus Magazine Tempus Magazine January-2023 The passion of travel curators Vanessa and Jasper from Voyages & Journeys surpasses the norm. - Gemma Harris - A journey into Portugal's Alentejo All in the details; a chic stay at the rural Malhadinha Nova with unique travel curators, Voyages & Journeys. The passion of travel curators Vanessa and Jasper from Voyages & Journeys surpasses the norm. Even before meeting them face to face, I could tell they were in it because they genuinely wanted to improve travel experiences. The faultless and compassionate service from the outset reflected their personalities. They accompanied me on my transfer to our destination. The two-hour travel time from Lisbon allowed us to chat about their aim with Voyages and Journeys. The different paths they are taking from others and the values they hold close to help them find their edge in unique and once-in-a-lifetime travel experiences for clients. And for this journey? They were taking me to experience one of their favourites and Portugal's best-kept secret, Alentejo. Driving through Alentejo at sunset made the evocative natural scenery even more so, with pink glistening in between the rolling vineyards and cork farms which seemed to stretch for miles. Sporadically we would encounter a small village where things moved leisurely, and they undoubtedly embraced the slower pace of life. The kind of villages where locals always leave their doors open and unlocked explained Vanessa. A warm welcome Arriving at Herdade da Malhadinha Nova in the evening created even more intrigue that this wild region exuded. The bumpy transfer in one of the estate's characterful jeep defenders did not disappoint. On route through the estate, Jasper explained that it spread over 450 hectares with various houses complete with rooms and suites. Over time the ruins throughout this area have been transformed into luxury accommodations. I was welcomed into one of the estate's 30 rooms within the 'Home of the terracotta.' Artisanal design Waking up to the far-reaching view surrounded by vineyards held promise for the next two days spent on the estate. Finishing up a cappuccino in none other than Vista Alegre crockery and the in-house chef's speciality eggs on the terrace overlooking the pool, I was ready. The tour around the estate highlighted how Malhadinha uses architecture that perfectly complements the area's rurality with modernity. Each house has its own take on the Alentejo culture, filled with various pieces from local artisans. I even had the opportunity to try my hand at a craft while here, taking a bulrush workshop with a local artisan - safe to say my creations won't make it into a room, however insightful and fun all the same. Each interior has its personalised touches, from the handcrafted marble details, and locally crafted furniture to the creative lights made from recycled plastic. Family details Owned by the Soares family, Rita Soares, the CEO, was there pointing out her favourite spots, with even a glimpse into the new under-construction spa area, building yet more for the future on what is already an estate based upon strong family foundations. It is truly all in the details throughout, and you can see this family passion project is authentic, with Rita perfecting every design touch herself, even down to each room's scent. Like all good stories, the Soares family story began with wine, with their project starting with the plantation of the first 20 hectares of vineyards. The tour around Malhadina's wine-making facilities and cellars showed every bottle label drawn by the family's children; the cow by Matilde was my favourite! This charm continued throughout and into the wine-tasting experience. Tasting their complex yet elegant - which today are award-winning - wines confirmed that they had resulted in their dedication to their respectful and sustainable processes. Gastronomic secrets The wines were paired with one of the many farm to table experiences I had here. From the olive groves, orchards, and farms to the vegetable gardens, Malhadinha is rich in quality, organic produce grown using regenerative farming methods. The food truly put the cherry on top, especially the Alentejo black pork on decadent risotto. Or maybe it was the incredible apple tart that almost looked too good to eat. The chefs throughout the estate are true to traditions while putting their gastronomic twists and tweaks on each dish. One of the local Portuguese chefs has been in the family for the past 25 years, adding the best-loved family dishes to the estate's menu. If you fancy getting in the kitchen, you can take lessons at Malhadinha and learn from the best. Anything is possible As well as being introduced to various friendly and welcoming staff members and local artisans in my time here, I also got to meet the other equine family members. They weren't just any horses; these were pure-blood Lusitano horses you can ride throughout the vineyards. Aside from wine tasting and horseback riding, there is plenty to do here. On my stay, I met with Luisa, the guest experience manager and was reassured that pretty much everything and anything was possible at Malhadinha, purely restricted by the guest's imaginations and desires. Some popular experiences are hot air balloon rides over the Alentejo plains, romantic picnics within the vineyards, quad biking around the estate or even your own beekeeper experience. More than luxury In Alentejo, nothing is rushed, slowly but surely providing for future generations. These sustainability-minded values continue to be a focus throughout Malhadinha, staying honest to the region. It is more than a luxury retreat. Malhadinha provides a carefully designed, unique and authentic space where traditions are kept alive and experiences are second to none while balancing the needs and respect for nature. Everything here, like in the hands of Voyages & Journeys, feels right and is a profound step for luxury travel. »»» For the original publication click here ««« < Previous Article Next Article >
- Carlo Huisman | Voyages & Journeys
Unieke Avonturen Jacht Expedities Ontdek De Numinous Wie Zijn Wij EN PT NL Home - De Numinous - Carlo Huisman Carlo Huisman Maart-2021 Vorige week, aan de andere kant van de wereld, in Nieuw-Zeeland, wonnen Carlo Huisman en het Emirates Team Nieuw-Zeeland voor de tweede keer op rij de America's Cup, een zeiltrofee die al 170 jaar meedoet, de meest prestigieuze prijs in de zeilsport. En wat deze 36e editie nog specialer maakte, was dat de spectaculaire race voor het thuispubliek plaatsvond in Waitemata Harbour in Auckland, ook wel bekend als de, City of Sails. Afgelopen Januari, hadden we de geweldige kans om Carlo wat vragen te stellen, om jou een exclusief inkijk te geven over deze ongelooflijk getalenteerde zeiler, de fantastische zeilsport en Nieuw-Zeeland zelf. Carlo Huisman begon met zeilen toen hij ongeveer 6 jaar oud was op de Friese Meren in het noorden van Nederland. Zijn vader nam hem en zijn oudere broer mee voor zeiltochten op platbodems, waardoor hij in combinatie met de zeilkampen in de zomerperiode uitstekende zeilvaardigheden ontwikkelde. Toen Carlo elf jaar oud was, begon hij competitiever te worden en tegen de tijd dat hij 16 werd, trainden hij en zijn broer in een 470 (dubbelhandige monohull) en streden op nationaal niveau. Het eindigde net zo snel als het begon, totdat hij werd uitgenodigd voor een korte offshore race, de vuurtoren race - dat was het keerpunt, toen begon hij echt te genieten van zeilen op een ander niveau en exclusief zeiljachten begon te zeilen. Carlo Huisman is nu zo'n zes jaar professioneel zeiler, maar heeft al een prijzenkast waar maar een paar aan kunnen tippen. Hij staat bekend als een van de meest begaafde zeilers ter wereld en samen met zijn Emirates Team Nieuw-Zeeland won hij niet één maar twee keer, een van de oudste en legendarische regatta's in de zeilwereld - de 35e en de 36e editie van de America's Cup - maar hij won ook de Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race met recordhouder Super Maxi Wild Oats; de Med op een Maxi 72; en hij nam met Team Brunel deel aan de beruchte Volvo Ocean Race. Waar komt de passie en liefde voor zeilen vandaan? Ik begon op jonge leeftijd met zeilen en vond het heerlijk om op het water te zijn. Zeilen is een uitdagende sport waar ik erg van geniet. Ik heb veel verschillende sporten gespeeld, maar geen ervan geeft me zoveel uitdagingen als zeilen. Ik denk dat dit de belangrijkste reden is waarom ik altijd weer ben gaan zeilen, ik geloof echt dat het de meest complete en ultieme uitdaging is. Je woont in het prachtige Nieuw-Zeeland, een land vol uitzonderlijke omgevingen, heb je al een favoriete plek ontwikkeld om rust te vinden? Nieuw-Zeeland is fantastisch en zonder twijfel een van de beste plekken ter wereld. Ik zou zeggen dat mijn favoriete plek de Golf van Hauraki is waar we dagelijks trainen met Emirates Team New Zealand. De zeilomstandigheden zijn perfect en het landschap ook. Drie jaar geleden won je de 35e editie van de prestigieuze America Cup, direct nadat je door Bouwe Bekking was geselecteerd voor Team Brunel om de meest uitdagende race ter wereld te zeilen, de Volvo Ocean Race. Hoe was die ervaring? Ik was erg blij dat ik de kans kreeg om deel uit te maken van een Volvo-campagne. Ik had nooit gedacht dat ik dit hetzelfde zou bereiken als de America's Cup, maar het was altijd een droom van mij. Het was ongelooflijk om beide geweldige zeiluitdagingen back-to-back te kunnen doen. Ook de kwaliteit van de campagnes waaraan ik meedeed, kon niet beter. Eerst de AC met Emirates Team New Zealand, een zeer ervaren en goed georganiseerd team. Toen ik bij Bouwe Bekking kwam voor een Volvo, heb ik zoveel van hem geleerd en hij is een fantastische schipper. Het was behoorlijk vol. De Volvo was een heel andere uitdaging dan de AC. Tijdens de AC werk je ontzettend hard, maar je hebt nog steeds momenten waarop je ontspant en je aandacht en geest op andere dingen kunt richten. De Volvo die ik heb gevonden, neemt je leven volledig over en er is niets anders. Je zet je persoonlijke leven in de wacht en concentreert je volledig op de race. Het is een extreme uitdaging en zonder twijfel het moeilijkste wat ik ooit heb gedaan. We hadden behoorlijk slecht weer tijdens onze ronde, tot mijn verbazing werd ik nooit zeeziek. De grootste strijd was waarschijnlijk het beheersen van de slaap. Ik werd er na de eerste paar benen beter in, maar in het begin had ik veel last van slaapgebrek. Vanaf de start van Kaapstad begon ik echt veel meer van de race te genieten en me op mijn gemak te voelen in mijn rol. De benen van de Zuidelijke Oceaan en Transat waren mijn favoriet en ik hield het minst van de benen van de evenaar. Uiteindelijk had elk been iets speciaals en de hoogte- en dieptepunten volgen elkaar vaak op de voet. Ik was duidelijk behoorlijk groen toen ik meedeed, ik had een aantal offshore races gereden, maar niets zoals de Volvo. Het is best intimiderend, maar ik hou van een uitdaging en probeerde zoveel mogelijk te leren van mijn teamgenoten. Het was leuk om deel uit te maken van Team Brunel met een aantal anderen die rechtstreeks uit de AC kwamen, zoals ik, Peter Burling en Kyle Langford. Toen ik ze in het begin zag worstelen, accepteerde ik ook mijn eigen fouten beter. De manier waarop we ons als team hebben ontwikkeld, was iets heel speciaals en ik heb veel respect voor Bouwe dat hij ons bij elkaar hield, ook al waren de eerste benen niet erg goed. Je hebt de beroemde Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race gevaren met een recordhouder Wild Oats Maxi Yacht - hoe heb je dit ervaren in vergelijking met het zeilen met een VO65? Toen ze me vroegen om boogschutter te worden van Wild Oats, was ik erg blij maar ook geïntimideerd door de rol. Ik wist dat het anders zou worden dan de VO65 en dat ik me bij een zeer ervaren en hecht team zou voegen. De jongens op de boot hebben jarenlang samen gevaren en zijn allemaal als familie. In het begin was het een beetje moeilijk om erin te mengen en ook om alle aspecten van de boot te leren, slechts een paar weken voordat de race begon. De boot is behoorlijk technisch en je moet heel goed communiceren met de andere bemanning om fouten te voorkomen. Het kan snel slecht gaan als je een kleine fout maakt of de timing verkeerd hebt. Na het zeilen van een oefenrace hebben we een aantal belangrijke wijzigingen aangebracht in de boot- en zeilgarderobe waardoor deze beter presteren en ook een stuk gemakkelijker om het werk aan de boeg te beheren. Ik was onder de indruk dat het team en de schipper graag naar mijn feedback luisterden. Vroeger waren er enkele schillen die een absolute nachtmerrie waren. De boot is extreem mager op de boeg en je hebt letterlijk niet genoeg ruimte voor de zeilen, dus je moet dit heel voorzichtig beheren. De paar dagen oefenen die we hadden en de veranderingen die we hadden aangebracht, bleken cruciaal omdat het een zeer spannende race was. Het was onwerkelijk om mijn eerste Hobart met Wild Oats te zeilen en de Line Honours te winnen, het team heeft geweldig werk geleverd. Ik heb het geluk dat ik al deze kansen krijg en probeer altijd mijn uiterste best te doen. Wat is je favoriete hoogtepunt tot nu toe en waarom? Ik heb zoveel geweldige momenten dat het moeilijk zou zijn om er een te kiezen. De beker winnen, de Zuidelijke Oceaan-etappe winnen met Brunel, wereldkampioen worden met Maxi72 Momo. Ik wil gewoon doorgaan en me blijven verbeteren als zeiler. De wereld is in de greep van COVID-19, langzaamaan is er licht aan het einde van de tunnel, wat is het volgende voor jou? Ik heb een aantal behoorlijk spannende dingen op het programma staan voor na de beker, maar een deel ervan hangt af van hoe Covid zich ontwikkelt. Als de situatie beter wordt, weet ik zeker dat ik tijdens de Europese zomer veel zal zeilen. Ik kijk eerst uit naar de verdediging van deze beker en dat heeft mijn volle aandacht. < Vorig Artikel Volgend Artikel > RNAVT 7818 Bedrijf geregistreerd in Portugal Privacybeleid Algemene Voorwaarden > Neem Contact Op info@voyagesjourneys.com +351 917 800 008

- Proef de Wereld als Connaisseurs | Voyages & Journeys
Unieke Avonturen Jacht Expedities Ontdek De Numinous Wie Zijn Wij EN PT NL Home - De Numinous - Proef de Wereld Proef de Wereld als Connaisseurs December-2020 Food is everything we are. It’s an extension of nationalist feeling. Ethnic feeling, your personal history, your province, your region, your tribe, your grandma. It’s inseparable from those from the get-go. - Anthony Bourdain - Een van mijn diepste passies die ik door de jaren heen heb ontwikkeld is voor wijn en de culinaire wereld, altijd op zoek naar die verborgen juweeltjes. Waarbij we fantastische wijngaarden bezochte en we soms wijn proefde op de meest geweldige locaties. Ook bezochten we restaurants die nu tot de beste ter wereld behoren. Tijdens onze reizen hebben we uitzonderlijke vakmannen en vrouwen ontmoet, die deze restaurants beheerde die al decennialang in de familie doorgegeven wordt. Eén van mijn mooiste herinneringen was toen ik een gerecht aanbevolen kreeg, waar ik echt onder de indruk van was, is de simpelheid maar tegelijkertijd de overweldigende smaken, ik kreeg toen van de eigenaar uitgelegd dat dat recept uit het jaar 1934 kwam, die was door de eerste chef kok van het restaurant gemaakt, en die werd tot de dag van vandaag nog steeds zo gemaakt, die restaurant houders (familie) zijn overigens goede vrienden van ons geworden. Maar ook restaurants die bekroond zijn met meerdere Michelin sterren waarmee je kunstwerken gepresenteerd krijgt die gecombineerd worden met de mooiste maar ook de meest verrassende wijnen, wat allemaal uit de directe omgeving komt. Samen met wijnhandelaren/specialisten wijngaarden bezoeken die al meer dan 500 jaar door dezelfde familie beheerd worden, waarbij je een proeverij ervaart op de meest memorabele locaties samen met de wijnmaker en wijngaard eigenaar. Het zijn dit soort momenten, onder het genot van een heerlijk glas wijn en canapés, waarbij vriendschappen en geweldige herinneringen ontstaan. Als je echt een bestemming wilt ontdekken, moet je eerst de keuken ontdekken. De keuken van een bestemming vertelt je zoveel over de geschiedenis, de cultuur en de mensen, ik ben een groot voorstander van het proeven van de lokale delicatessen en gerechten van elke plaats die ik bezoek. In de afgelopen jaren is de wijn en culinaire wereld aanzienlijk gegroeid. Waardoor het ontzettend moeilijk kan zijn om juist dit soort ervaringen te kunnen vinden. Dit is waar de kennis en ervaring van V&J ter pas komt. Of je nu dineert in een restaurant met uitzicht over het Aconcagua gebergte in Argentinië of een wit truffelfeest voorbereidt in de Monferrato provincie na een dag truffel jagen. Het zijn de ervaringen eromheen die er onvergetelijke herinneringen van maken. Door de jaren heen hebben we geweldige vriendschappen opgebouwd met wijnspecialisten, eigenaren en restauranteigenaren. Door deze relaties kunnen wij uw ongeëvenaarde toegang met voorkennis bieden. Onze wijngaardenbezoeken worden geheel naar uw palet samengesteld, waarbij we toegang bieden tot prestigieuze wijngaarden, soms een vatproeverij als de gelegenheid zich voordoet. Omdat ik in de gelegenheid ben om, dit te combineren met mijn passie voor ontdekken, kreeg ik de unieke kans om deze culinaire ervaringen met jullie te delen. Samen met uw inspiratie en ideeën, stellen we de meest unieke culinaire reizen samen, zodat u zowel de verfijnde keuken van de regio als de meest rustieke tradities ervaart.

- Marsel van Oosten – A true adventurer | Voyages & Journeys
Home - The Numinous - Marsel van Oosten Marsel van Oosten – A true adventurer April-2021 We all try to preserve some of our great memories through photography. It is no secret to the world that Marsel van Oosten is one of the greatest photographers in the world and recently we had the outstanding opportunity to ask him some questions about his work. Find more about the man behind the lens and get inspired for your next shots. After graduating from the Academy of Arts with a BA in Art Direction and Graphic Design, Dutch-born Marsel van Oosten started a career in advertising. As an Art Director at various renowned agencies, he won numerous awards for his work, amongst which are one silver and two gold Lions at the prestigious International Advertising Festival in Cannes. The acclaimed television commercial for a Dutch nature conservation organization is an excellent representation of both his creative and emotional approach to communication, as well as for his love for the natural world and his concerns in relation to the environment. Marsel’s images are famed for his mastery of composition, lighting, colour, and perspective. In his work he tries to simplify and to get rid of the extraneous – simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. In addition to winning the Wildlife Photographer of the Year, Travel Photographer of the Year, and International Nature Photographer of the Year (twice), his awards include a First Prize in the European Wildlife Photographer of the Year, a First Prize in Nature’s Best International Photography Awards, twice the First Prize in the Travel Photographer of the Year, and several awards in Wildlife Photographer of the Year. His images are featured in galleries and museums, used worldwide in advertising and design, and he is a regular contributor to National Geographic. Where does your passion for photography comes from? I've always been a lover of nature. When I was a kid, I frequently went with my parents into the woods for long walks. At home we often watched films and documentaries about animals. Yet it took a long time before I started taking photography seriously. I didn't like it at art school, so then I ignored the subject. After graduating in graphic design and art direction, I got a job as an art director at a large advertising agency. In the fifteen years that followed, I collaborated extensively with selected photographers to shoot my campaigns. As a result, I was regularly on photo shoots and I learned a lot from that. I also learned to appreciate photography a lot more, and in the end, I bought a camera to take pictures during vacations. I soon found out that my photos weren't very good and I decided to look into it in more detail. Then it became a serious hobby that eventually got completely out of hand. The last three years of my career in advertising I had my own advertising agency which was quite stressful. Nature photography became the way to escape that stress for me. At one point I wondered if I couldn't be a better photographer because it seemed to make me a lot happier. When did you start combining photography with adventure? When my wife and I went on our honeymoon, we opted for a safari in Tanzania. For me that was the first time that I set foot in Africa, and the first time that I photographed wildlife. It made an undeniable impression on me, and from that moment on I was sure that I wanted to make it my job. I knew that would not be easy because fifteen years ago there was not much money to be made in my photography genre. During a brainstorming session with my wife, Daniella, we decided to organize special wildlife photography trips all over the world. At that time, this only happened on a very small scale, so we saw many opportunities there. It turned out to be the right choice because business has been going very well from the beginning of our company. Our starting point has always been that we only do things that make us happy. That has turned out to be a good strategy. When we no longer like a trip, we throw it out, even if it is financially unwise to do so. We both love photography, animals and nature, and travel, so this is the perfect combination for us. What is the most spectacular expedition / travel experience that you ever had? It is difficult to compare journeys because they are all very special in their own way. Our expedition in the Sahara through Algeria, Libya and Chad was really spectacular. I would like to do that again when peace has returned to the region. My most recent expedition to Socotra, Yemen, was also a special experience. Although there is a civil war raging the journey was by no means harmful. What is your dream voyage? In the end I would like to drive an overland truck around the world again, in search of unknown pieces of wilderness. (Now a question everyone wants to know ) What is your perfect camera setup to photograph wildlife? There is no perfect setup because the animals and the circumstances always differ. If animals are very shy, then I need long telephoto lenses, but if they are relaxed, I can sometimes even use a wide-angle lens. In principle, I love to show animals in their natural habitat, with a lot of attention to the beauty that surrounds them. My ideal nature photo is actually a beautiful landscape photo with an animal in it. That means that I prefer to shoot with shorter lenses because then I can show more of the landscape. A 24-70 / 2.8 or a 70-200 / 2.8 are ideal lenses for this. But in practice I mostly use my 180-400 / 4.0 with built-in 1.4x teleconverter for my animal photography. Usually, it is not possible to get close enough to wild animals to use short lenses. Is there anything exciting in the calendar for the future? Absolutely. I am currently working on a new book: MOTHER (a Tribute to Mother Earth). It will be a visual ode to nature and an overview of my best work of the past 15 years. No fewer than 394 pages and 244 photos, so a really bulky book. I've been working on it for over 10 months now, and I'm very happy with the result. It will be available worldwide on April 22. In addition, we had to postpone all our photo trips from 2020 to 2021 and 2022, while those years were almost full. For us, the upcoming two years will be all about non-stop travel and photography with a number of new destinations that we are very much looking forward to. I also have some personal projects in the waiting room, but they will have to stay there for the time being. < Previous Article Next Article >

- U-Boat Worx | Voyages & Journeys
Home - The Numinous - U-Boat Worx U-Boat Worx June-2022 Last November (2021), we were presented with the opportunity to schedule a visit to the HQ of U-Boat Worx in Breda (the Netherlands). As you may be aware, we dedicate a lot of our time creating exceptional yacht expeditions to the most extraordinary and remote destinations around the world. With these amazing adventures we provide submersible services, and as an official Partner of U-Boat Worx, we can provide the most modern and advanced submersibles on the market. U-Boat Worx submarines are without a doubt the pioneer in every aspect of underwater exploration. Since its inception, U-Boat Worx has defined the standards to create exceptional submersibles. Each submarine is handcrafted and overseen by their own in-house experts to ensure every detail is perfect. It was the dream of Bert Houtmanto create submersibles that offer the best dive experience, a dream that has come true and continues to deliver excellence. Each U-Boat Worx submarine is designed to provide unmatched comfort, space, and style. All their submarines have maximum legroom and headroom while keeping overall weight and size to a minimum. This combination delivers the ultimate diving experience. When embarking on the Cruise Sub’s, in the manufacturing line, it is directly noticed the ease of boarding and disembarking. Being placed in one of the acrylic hulls - keep in mind that this model fits 9 passengers, including the pilot - the clear view was truly impressive, every equipment and component is strategically placed, and the combination of the efficient air conditioning for comfort and the surround music transforms this experience into a 360º live-theatre. Complete flexibility and omni-directional movement are the hallmarks of U-Boat Worx submersibles. They are truly ideal for wreck diving and discovering the most challenging waters. Their submersibles intelligently designed thruster configurations optimise manoeuvrability with maximum capability. Advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics are used to streamline the hull to maximise the efficiency and decrease drag giving the appropriate power settings to counteract all conditions of tide and current. What makes them even more impressive is that their submersibles can perform a minimum of 8 dives per day without refilling, and some models can do up to 12 dives without refilling. Due to their abundant oxygen capacity, large Carbon Dioxide filters and high-capacity battery systems they can perform up to 18 hours operation. To have a submersible to your disposal during your yacht adventure is indispensable. With a submersible onboard we make sure to design the sailing route along breathtaking diving sites to experience magical moments while exploring the underwater world. We would like to thank Eckly Hendriks (U-Boat Worx International Sales Manager) for the warm welcome and introductions. < Previous Article Next Article >

Deep channels and fjords separate the islands and cut them off from the mainland. This entire archipelago is covered with breathtaking landscapes and extraordinary wildlife.
