After a couple of days stopover in Austria in April, I took a flight to San Francisco, my next destination. I spent 90 days in the US, the majority in San Francisco and its surroundings.
During my first 2 weeks, Kesh and I ticked off quite a few of the highlights the city has to offer – the Golden Gate Bridge, different central districts, parks and squares, the seals at Pier 39 and much more. We also went on a ride on one of the historic trams and explored the coast line.
Later on, I explored almost every corner of the city, went on hikes, checked out the local climbing, saw the Golden Gate Bridge from all kinds of different viewpoints – and much more. But I also just lived a normal life, working in the mornings, helping Kesh with some home improvement and van projects, cooking some nice meals and meeting some of his family and friends.
Some of my highlights of my time in San Francisco include:
- Hiking in Muir Woods
- Climbing at Castle Rock
- Running across Golden Gate Bridge
- Murals walk in the Mission district
- Wine tasting in Napa Valley
- Sailing in the bay
…and much more!
Here you can find some photos of my time in SF and the immediate surroundings. Post and photos about the Yosemite national park and other places I visited in the US to follow…
Overall, I really enjoyed my time in San Francisco. Public transport is tricky though, so I’ll definitely look into renting a car or buying a bike next time I’m around.
