Lovefest

The result of an accumulation of my most favorite humans, deliciously bubbly champagne and fantastic music. Somewhere in the middle of the Arlberg mountains!

--> to love and friendship

Japow, Baby!

by Vreni vom Berg, 08 May 2019
In the past three years, life has taught me an important lesson: clarity. You need to know what you want and do not want. Whenever I gained clarity over a decision - life, fate whatever you want to call it, agreed or disagreed. Japan, the land of my x-rated-naughty-powder-dreams. One of many destinations of my must-travel-to-and-ski-list. This year I erased it off it. It was too far away, too expensive, a lot of "too's" to make it happen. It was simply out of reach. A clear decision was made: no more x-rated-naughty-Japow-dreams. Within days, I received a message from my friend Pia asking me to join her on a trip… to JAPAN. Life has its ways. Always.

Wine + Piercings

by Vreni vom Berg, 09 Sept 2018
Over an excellent lunch at Mott32, we were debating over an idea we all have had for some time... piercings. After a bottle of champagne and few bottles of excellent New Zealand wine. It wasn't a good, but sublime idea. There we went and knocked on the door of Mofo Tattoo!

Autumnal Mountain Porn

by Vreni vom Berg, 23 Oct 2018
Gather a group of goodness around you. Pack your back pack with warm clothes, food and a drink, hike a peak, watch the sunset and walk home in the dark. Warm up over delicious food and the flickering candle light. Do it! You shall thank me later.

Sensory Explosion: Filipino Fish Market

by Vreni vom Berg, 09 Sept 2018
After a couple of days we swooped Hong Kong city madness for fish market barter craziness in Cebu, Philippines. The first thing one notices before eben entering is its very distinct smell from the side road, across the street. A first glance and my senses exploded. Loud bargaining, colors, light, shadows, aisles flooded with people, row after row of fishes shells and who knows what in baskets, spider webs, fans, textures, undefinable things hanging everywhere... Loved it!

Life+Death

by Vreni vom Berg, 28 Jun 2018
Life, death and everything in between. Svalbard way beyond the arctic circle is covered in glaciers, touched by pack ice and almost unharmed by the human destructive nature. Life takes it course. In all its beautiful rugged wildness.

Hunting snow in La Grave

by Vreni vom Berg, 23 May 2018
I am vehemently denying spring. Its warm temperatures, twittering birds and colorful spring flowers. The only escape is up. Very steep kind of up. Above 2.000m untouched snow and ice is to be found. Welcome to the national parc of the Ecrins (parc national des Ecrins) in France, Europe.

Alpine Start

by Vreni vom Berg, 24 May 2018
Early mornings. They hurt. A little. The alarm goes off and my mind (very) slowly awakens. The body is still in denial. Hoping for another 10minutes rest. An image appears out of the dark cloud of sleep: Col de Roche Faurio. A white line between rugged rocks. A thousand meter vertical beauty. Details become clearer. The climb leads through a narrow snow band guarded by rocks on each side. After it the the couloir opens up. Step by step, passed two seracs, along the rocks until the saddle… My sleep drunken fingers unzip the sleeping bag. LETS PLAY! (But first coffee)

Until Rebirth

by Vreni vom Berg, 18 Feb 2017
Forget everything you know about Nepal. Was the one lesson I learned in Nepal. This series I shot in a famous Hindu temple. As you entered one is greeted by the elderlies, who whole heartily bless you. They are there to die. All by themselves, no more family or relatives to take care of them - they are dependent on donations. No donations no food. The temple is their last place of shelter until rebirth.

by Vreni vom Berg, 28 Jun 2018
A little island in the middle of nowhere of indescribable beauty: Svalbard. An island surrounded by blue. Vibrant ice blue, that meanders its way from the mountains to the deep dark blue of the ocean. White snow peaks break the blue sky. A little island in the middle of nowhere of indescribable beauty: Svalbard!

Tihar - Festival of Light

by Vreni vom Berg, 19 Feb 2018
Tihar, the festival of light, worships the Hindu gods and humans, but also their relationship to animals. Dogs, crows and dogs each of them have their own their of celebration. The hindus draw patterns at their front doors and in their living rooms floors with colored rice, fruits, blossom leaves and colored sand. These are sacred. And are meant to welcome the Goddesses, Gods and animals.

Fishing in arctic Norway

by Vreni vom Berg, 26 May 2017
Five friends trying to learn the art of fishing - kind of. Every day touring in the Lyngen Alps ended with a fishing orgy. A few refreshing cold beers, something salty to nibble on, to rest and enjoy the view over the Fjords of Lyngen, in arctic Norway.

A sneaky climbing quicky

by Vreni vom Berg, 27 Oct 2017
A sneaky climbing quicky. Three days and two routes (Luna Nascente & Kundalini) paired with multiple unsuccessful attempts of overcoming my fear of traversing (singing to myself helped a little), refining the art of crack and friction climbing on granite and a good glass of red with fantastic human beings before crawling into the sleeping bag.
