Probably the most iconic lakeside sauna in all of Probably the most iconic lakeside sauna in all of Austria - courtesy of @romantikhotels very own @romantik_spa_hotel_seefischer (Advertisement). 🇦🇹 My name is @marionpayr and I recently got to spend a long weekend in this family-owned hotel at lake Millstatt in Austria. As if the hotel location directly at the lakeshore wouldn't be good enough, they transformed a rustic stilted wooden hut into their own private lakeside sauna. After the sweat session you can cool off in the lake straight away, just a few steps down from the sauna. If you want to learn more about the hotel and what else is on offer (think family style Austrian hospitality and local delicacies), check out my new blogpost on www.thetravelblog.at where I share all my tips about the hotel and the destination. #romantikhotels #romantikhotel #visitcarinthia @millstaettersee @visitcarinthia
¡Hola! #México 🇲🇽 For my 40th birthday I ¡Hola! #México 🇲🇽 For my 40th birthday I decided to travel somewhere I had already been a few times - to stop my urge to explore and try and really unwind. I have to outsmart myself like that once in a while ☺️ And that's why I decided for Yucatán! We had just been here last winter and I knew I wanted to return eventually. We're kicking off the trip in Coba, where we haven't stayed before, but only made a tour stop during our first trip. This small village is located at a natural lake and used to be home to a Mayan city, as they strategically chose locations at the water to be able to have access to fresh water and fish. We’re staying at @coquicoquiofficial - a place that smells just as wonderfully as it looks, as it’s not really a hotel, but a perfumery with some boutique residences. (unpaid ad, this is a private stay)
Its finally here! ♥️ The new branding for my p Its finally here! ♥️ The new branding for my photography & storytelling business - aptly named „Marion Payr“. Created by the wonderful Kathrin Alexander @grafikapartment. Alongside with a new website designed and built by Ben and Matthias from @jaundarmin. I can’t thank you all enough for the love and effort you put into this - you truly captured my spirit in this ♥️ This was my dream (and present to myself) for my 40th birthday - to finally invest in my photography career and create a visual narrative that fits my approach to my work. I hope you love it as much as I do. Any feedback is welcome 🙌🏼 #yourstruly #marionpayr #photographystorytelling
A new decade has started. I ended my 30ies on thi A new decade has started. I ended my 30ies on this mountain, watching the sunrise, reflecting on the past, present and future. Turning 40 sounded like a big milestone just a few years back. But the closer it got the less unsurmountable that milestone seemed. What would change? Right, nothing. Just like turning 20 or 30 or getting married changed nothing. It's all but a sequence of moments. Moments that seem like they follow a linear path, but that's an illusion. None of it does. I don't believe in linear ends and beginnings, but in circles. In waves. Organic shapes. And like organic matter never disappears, but only changes its form and shape, so do we. All of us will die eventually. But our bodies will turn into soil and ashes. And our spirits you might ask? We will never know. But what we know is that today we're here. We're alive. Breathing. Nothing else matters really. #hello40
One week at @bleibberg health retreat in photos (A One week at @bleibberg health retreat in photos (Advertisement). A week of getting up early to walk barefoot in the morning dew, daily sports sessions, swimming in the thermal water, visits of the healing tunnel, three different types of yoga and a personalized fasting cure. A week of not leaving the hotel, completely immersed in inner work and concentration on my health and well-being. This was just what the doctor ordered after a very busy summer and fall. I felt that I had worked a bit too much the previous months and so my body and mind were craving a pause. In April we had already stayed at @bleibberg just after their (re-)opening and that initial week had already done wonders for us. So we returned for a second round and this was such a good decision. A week at BLEIB BERG equals total relaxation. I have updated my blog post from the last visit on thetravelblog.at and there's also a new voucher code for a 20% discount for those of you that are also craving a reset and pause. Just use the code "MARION20" on all bookings until June 2023 at @bleibberg! #bleibberg #badbleiberg #healthretreat #visitcarinthia
Slow travel on the island of #Juist - on assignmen Slow travel on the island of #Juist - on assignment for @romantikhotels (Advertisement). Have you ever heard about the East Frisian islands? And what about the island of Juist? 🏖 While Norderney or Wangerooge might ring a bell, Juist is definitely not as well known. Juist one of the 12 East Frisian islands off the German coast in the North Sea 🇩🇪 One of the main reason people flock to the island is the Wadden Sea – an UNESCO natural heritage - extensive mudflats that connect the mainland with the islands. But for us it was also the incredibly soothing atmosphere and the very slow pace of life here. The whole island is car-free, so you either walk, take a bike or a boat - or you ride with one of the local horse carriages. Life on the island is adjusted to the rhythm of the tide - and this connectedness to nature’s timeline is what you can sense during your stay. The reason we made it from Vienna all the way North to Juist is the 50 year anniversary of @romantikhotels – a collective of European boutique and family-owned hotels dedicated to individual hospitality. On Juist there’s one of their long-standing establishments called @hotelachterdiek and that’s where we were invited to stay. A true maritime gem, hidden behind the dam, this is a sanctuary from wind and weather. A place to sit at the fireplace and play board games with your family or enjoy a classic afternoon break with waffles and cherry compote. We were not surprised that guests keep returning here year after year and generation after generation. ♥️ You can now find out more about Romantik Hotel Achterdiek and the island of Juist on thetravelblog.at! #romantikhotels #romantikhotel #achterdiek #ostfriesland #eastfrisia #eastfrisianislands
@bristolvienna through my lens - shot on assignmen @bristolvienna through my lens - shot on assignment for @theluxurycollection (Advertisement). Some of you might know, that I not only travel for my personal sake, but that I also produce photographic stories for clients such as @theluxurycollection. This also entails working with larger teams, models, bookers, etc. - so this post goes to the beautiful souls, that I got to work together with while shooting at @bristolvienna. To create photos that embody the spirit of a place and tell stories, that run a bit deeper than your average Tripadvisor hotel photo - working with people can drive a narrative. I'm particularly thankful that casting for @theluxurycollection always comes from a standpoint of diversity, which isn't always the norm - especially not for traditional 5 star luxury hotels with a 130 year old tradition. So thank you to @ana_lendl, @ash.ires and @bubabojang_ for working together on these stories from Vienna. And thank you to @theluxurycollection and @bristolvienna for making it all happen! ♥️ #bristolvienna #theluxurycollection #TLCPartner
Multisensory dinner at @bristolvienna (Advertiseme Multisensory dinner at @bristolvienna (Advertisement). Taking 130 years of history and transforming the future. That's how this new dinner experience can be explained in one sentence. In the brand-new "Secrete Bristol Lounge Laboratory" guests can embark on a multisensory journey, that entails everything from smell to sound and visual arts. The night starts with an aperitif at the base of the ornately decorated staircase of hotel Bristol before doors are opened to a room that seems like from a different planet. A long table is set only with white table cloth and laboratory glass jugs, lit by the perfect rectangular shape of a white light beam. Once you enter you feel that this won't be just any fine dining experience, but rather a deep-dive into a multifaceted visionary art installation - paired with creative cusine. From artificial intelligence to archival gems from the 130 years of @bristolvienna - you can truly embark on a journey that will remove you from the everyday. The sessions will only be hosted once a month and the next one will happen on the 3rd of November, so make sure to book your slot early enough as there's only 20 seats at the exclusive table. More infos can be found on https://www.bristol-lounge.at/en/laboratory. #bristolvienna #theluxurycollection #TLCPartner @theluxurycollection
@bristolvienna through my lens - shot on assignmen @bristolvienna through my lens - shot on assignment for @theluxurycollection (Advertisement). This was one of my favorite projects last month, even if it involved a city. As you know I'm drawn to nature and therefore have neglected photography when I'm at home in Vienna for years. But what only those of you will remember, who are here with me since my beginnings on Instagram more than 10 years ago is that I started off my photography passion solely in Vienna. My formative years so to speak happened in Vienna. So when @theluxurycollection asked me if I'd be up for shooting a story about my hometown I quickly said yes. And so I got to spend time revisiting some of my favorite places in the city, but also photographing the historical and iconic @bristolvienna, which is a Viennese institution since 130 years. Celebrating this anniversary the hotel is looking back deep into it's rich archives while working together with contemporary artists to revive some of these stories in today's setting. I'll tell you more about the 130 year anniversary soon, but for now I'm leaving you with this set from my favorite room, one of the Opéra suites at @bristolvienna. Where moss green suede meets silk tapestry and you can dine on a balcony overlooking the opera. #bristolvienna #theluxurycollection #TLCPartner
