Weekly photo challenge: Grid
This grid might not be the main focus of the photo, but is just as much part of it as the background. It’s on the cemetery of St Peter, where you can find gorgeous graves in a small, lush space, enclosed by the mountain and the church.
The perfect round trip
This summer I was lucky enough to be able to visit the Swiss alps twice. I fell in love, with the fresh air, the mountains, the activities… all of it. We were based in Interlaken, where a bunch of towns have all grown towards each other in between two big…
Omg I’m a bird
