the love of flying
A photo challenge on Dpreview about flying (more precisely about planes – photos taken in the interior of planes). From cockpits of WW2 bombers, to business class areas on modern flights to small plane interiors there is a lot of…

Well, I am now in Bucharest so this small wonderful trip ended. Managed to backup the whole photo catalog from the Asus netbook and do a backup, unpacked, did the laundry, started work – everything is back to normal. More…

In a city with sweltering heat you need an oasis of quiet, some trees, and a way to cool down. So…take on big swimming pool, add a lot of hammocks, a lot of fans in the dorms, a large space…

The vacation within the vacation is over. My 3 day stay in Tulum is over, and now I am in Merida missing the beach. Tulum is a backpacker hangout near the Caribbean, famous for cenote diving and snorkeling, for Mayan ruins, and for…

I think I am around at the half of the trip (time does seem to fly…), so here are some quick thoughts of the trip so far. I arrived in Ciudad de Mexico – a huge great city, where I…

Yes, this is going to be a post without pictures of buildings nor Mayan ruins. The second part of the trip seems to be moving towards a more nature-orientated part. At least for the moment. Or until Chichen Itza… Welcome…

Im writing this before boarding the bus for Tulum. Another long night bus ride – 11 hours at least – ahead of me. The good part – I get to process some photos, write a bit – before and ON…

It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words…so this post should be like a small novel.

Ciudad de Mexico is…. the smell of delicious food – tortas, burritos, quesadilla, and so many more which I intend to try music – everywhere I can hear a band playing – from love songs to spanish rock colonial buildings…

Sometimes people look at me somewhat strange when I tell them I have no particular plan when I start traveling. I have a general idea what I want to see, and at one point (morning coffee) I read the guide…
I’m writing this while passing the southern tip of Groenland. Im supposed to catch some sleep in order to accommodate to the new time zone, however the day has no intention of ending- and above the clouds it’s always sunny.…

Last weekend I went to Otaku 2010. Looking extremely confused at the different activities – from cosplay, drawing, console gaming – I tried to think for a reason why I am going to these events. The only reason I found…

2 weeks ago I went to a trip near Bran Castle with some work colleagues. Fun experience, and some photographic opportunities presented themselves. Almost everyone had already seen the castle, so we skipped it (however for someone who is in…

I found these photos I took last year at a manga / gaming convention. It was a really eerie experience – I could not recognize even one anime playing, nor console games played. The only familiar things were Warhammer 40k…

Chiang Mai is small town in northern Thailand, famous for the many activities one can do. From elephant riding, trekking, rafting, visiting the tiger zoo to enjoying the many markets and strolling the old town. And of course you cannot…

This is the last photo gallery from Laos – images from Luang Prabang street life, temples and life on the river. The last pictures are taken from the airplane, leaving for Siem Reap. Previous galleries from laos can be found…

Here are a few more pictures from Luang Prabang. These photos were mostly taken at the different temples in Luang Prabang. For more images you can check my previous post.

For some Laos is the “real” Asia. Of course, every country is very real. From the BTS in Bangkok to the hill tribes to relaxed Laos to crazy traffic in Hanoi. Looking for the “real” Asia (re: rice fields, fastest…
Well, doing a bit of cleaning around the blog I discovered that I started writing and posting photos exactly last year. First post – a ‘hello world’ kind of message – was posted on Jan 31, 2009. So, with a…
After a long period of freezing under the snow and quietly longing for the weather in Asia, it seems we are nearing spring. Finally. And so I start again to fret about new destinations, new travels, new adventures… Maybe I…
