A big sandbox
The Dutch coast, a big sandbox bathing in sunlight. It’s such a nice area to soak up some salty air and feel the wind in your face. I love how on these photos the sand contrasts with the blue skies and darker cloudy haze in the distance. I believe I took these pictures a few yearsContinueContinue reading “A big sandbox”
Near Bow Falls, Banff
Although I’ve seen very little of Canada (so far), what I did see was beautiful! I definetly want to see heaps more! 🙂 Banff N.P. in Alberta is a beautiful area and I highly recommend a visit. When I went to Banff, the town, I did some light hiking along the Bow river. As I walkedContinueContinue reading “Near Bow Falls, Banff”
Waving in the wind
It’s funny, when I travel I like taking photos of flags (like in Sweden or Canada), but I’ve never taken a photo like that of the Dutch flag. When I was on Vlieland, I didn’t have a preset idea or a plan as to what kind of photos I would be taking. As I wasContinueContinue reading “Waving in the wind”

On my first hike on the island, I first saw two very cute donkeys who were grazing on a field near the lighthouse. I satContinueContinue reading “Island ingredients: donkeys, horses, goats and seagulls”
Golden sand beaches
Abel Tasman N.P. is one of my favourite areas in New Zealand. Beautiful blue water, lush forests and golden beaches. It’s such a beautiful area and I highly recommend it to anyone going to New Zealand! I took this photo on my second trip. I booked a sailing trip on a catamaran. The weatherContinueContinue reading “Golden sand beaches”
Water’s edge
I love harbours. I don’t know what it is, but I love the rows of boats, the sense of adventure, the water’s edge. I wish I could hop on a boat and sail away on an adventure! During my weekend away on the Dutch island of Vlieland, I walked around the harbour area and enjoyed theContinueContinue reading “Water’s edge”
True blue
Earlier this year, I posted a picture of Mt. Cook (Aoraki) and the crazy blue Lake Pukaki on a day with a gorgeous clear blue sky. I also made a short video of the lake and the highest mountain in New Zealand that day. I still find it stunning to see water that blue. Amazing! Mt.ContinueContinue reading “True blue”
