Visited the active and dormant craters of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park on the BIg Island! Mt. Fuji in Japan was the first time I had ever visited a volcano, however, in 2001.

 Happy to saw the volcano in Oregon

We covered Ijen Crater on June 4th 2015 and Mount Bromo on June 5th. Both places were active volcanoes located in East Java, Indonesia. The views were magnificent and blew our minds away. The climbings were done right after midnight and trekking under the moonlight and cool wet nights. It felt like being in a different realm altogether. Worth all effort especially to witness Blue Flame Phenomenon at Ijen Crater, being the largest in the world.

I went to Tenerife and i visited Mount Teide Volcano

 

I visited an active volcano during my trip to Nicaragua with Jakob Eckhardt. I rated it a 3 because it was so hard to see due to the smoke, it made our eyes burn terribly!

Amazing, this is just 1 of the 5 active volcanos in Costa Rica.

↵Mount Baker dormant, but still technically a volcano. 

 

 

Mount Etna, Sicily.

 

 

Frozen Volcano in Iceland!

The Quill dormant volcano on St. Eustatius island in the Caribbean.

Also, the Boiling Lake in Morne Trois Pitons National Park in Dominica.

 Winter 2009

At University, I studied BSc Geography which meant I learnt a lot about volcanoes. I also went on two trips abroad; one to Tenerife and one to Iceland. In Tenerife I climbed Mount Teide, and in Iceland I climbed Mount Hekla. As well as this, I volunteered abroad in New Zealand, which meant I saw many volcanoes there too! I climbed Mount Maunganui here. I'm currently visiting iceland again at the moment, and just yesterday, I saw Eyjafjallajokull, so that was cool too.

Mount Vesuvius 2011

 

Izta popo :)

Mt Kilimanjaro, although not an active volcano, I think its one of the most beautiful mountains on earth.

Tenerife, 2008. 

In around and near a volcano! To be continued...

Volcan Pacaya 

I love catastrophes and the power released during them - volcanos being very high on the list of impressive natural forces not to mess with. Therefore, hiking on a volcano, maybe even glimpse lava somewhere, is something I've always wanted to do.

Reached my goal in Feb 2014 during holidays in Costa Rica on Arenal volcano. No lava but hiking an old lavastream from one of the earlier erruptions. Volcano itself was off limits since a few months before some tourists died due to the toxic gases released every now and than (since it was an active volcano).

Still, an amazing experience with lots of crazy stories from our tour guide.
