A voyage with the freighter Bright Sky

This post is also available in: Deutsch (German)

In many posts on this blog I have reported about my journey with the cargo ship Bright Sky from Hamburg to Walvis Bay.

Maybe you’ll come to this website later and wish you had a chronological list of all the articles in the story?

Maybe you don’t want to read the report in chronological order, but rather jump back and forth?

To make it easier for you to find certain posts, I would like to give you a table of contents for the story here.
