Weekly Photo Challenge: New
A new morning. The sun is rising. Another day of adventures begins. Nobody knows what lies ahead. I hope I get to experience many of these days this year. I hope their are many amazing places to explore, preferably with good company. This photo reminds me of how great it…
Park near the water
Summer is coming and that means we all pack our bags, slap on some sunscreen and hit the road. Summer is the perfect time for a roadtrip and what better way to enjoy the sun than camping? On my recent road trip, however short it turned out to be, I…
A road not easily forgotten.
It was only a half hour drive to the Moeraki boulders, but my car couldn’t handle it anymore. Suddenly the temperature gage went up high in the sky and when I left the state highway for the last few hundred meters to the boulders, the engine just stopped. I was…

Living like a mole; the secrets of the ground
Coober Pedy is a town in the dusty and dry outback of South Australia. Arriving via the Stuart highway you’ll see a big sign full of graffiti. Besides that, there is nothing but dust. That, and holes apparently, judging by the signs telling you not to stray from the roads.…
