First – I am sorry I haven’t updated my blog for a long time!
The reason you will see within the next trip reports – I was on the move over the past weekends ;-)
Since my time comes soon to an end here in Japan I want to see the places I only can visit easily from here in Japan.
One of those destinations was always Saipan – part of the Mariana Islands.

But there is not only the underwater world which is worth visiting this place, beside the beatufil nature - Saipan also has an interesting, but sad history. Mainly about the second World War were you can find many relicts left (Tanks, monition, etc…) or visit places like the Suicide or Banzai Cliff, to remember the thousands of people who committed suicide to escape the US army.
All in all a facet rich island with many things to do & see and real nice people welcoming you with open arms!
And the highlight – one Austrian called Markus … he is as famous as Arnold Schwarzenegger in US ;-)
