88 days diaries: The cherry carrousel
The cherry season is starting. I am not alone anymore. Two Taiwanese girls and an American boy have joined me in the house. It is so much fun to have people around, even though we all have to wait to use the shower now. It is refreshing to have people…
Weekly Photo Challenge: Inside
I took this photo on Kangaroo Island in South Australia. I was visiting the Island with a group and captured this image of one of my fellow travelers exploring the site. I framed him in between the rocks and it seems to me like he is in deep though, pondering.…
Man meets nature
Singapore is a crazy city, full of shopping malls and extraordinary places. A place I loved is gardens by the bay. This is not just any garden, but one full of artificial super trees. It is a bizarre sight, the manmade trees surrounded by fields of grass. The trees are…
Treats on the road

88 days diaries: Shock and tears
During my travels I’ve met lots of different people. I’ve come across some situations where I felt like I was being pushed around. Somehow people think they can treat you like shit because you are a traveller. I find it hard to deal with this, but sometimes you’ve got to…
Tempting: longing for snow
