For those determined to fly, having no wings is just a little detail

Thank you for joining the sightseeing and rafting trip
After a wonderful time with my Viking friend, it was time to say goodbye. The next and final destination of my Norwegian adventure was Trondheim. My friend dropped me off at the bus stop. The bus was comfortable and the trip to Trondheim took about four hours. On the way, we had a ferry crossing,Continue reading “Thank you for joining the sightseeing and rafting trip”
Shimmer
This is one of my favourite photos of my latest travel to New Zealand, taken on the Interislander Ferry to the South Island. I love the predominantly blue colour palet and the almost silver shimmers from the sun on the water. As if I needed any more convincing that the Marlborough Sounds are stunning!
Across the world
Mid December 2017 it was finally time for mom and I to travel to New Zealand! For mom it was the first time ever flying this far.

I highly recommendContinue reading “Views from the Afsluitdijk”
Many happy returns
The beautiful pancake rocks in Punakaiki, on the west coast of New Zealand. Despite having been there twice now (this photo was taken on the first time), I think it’s still a remarkable sight, that I’d happily witness again! This is one of my favourite photos. I love the composition, the lighting (I’m a nutContinue reading “Many happy returns”
Padrão dos Descobrimentos
Our first destination in Portugal was Belém, a relatively short distance from the city centre of Lisbon. We decided to take the electric tram 15E…and so did what seemed like millions of others. My goodness, it was probably the worst tram ride in my life. In retrospect, travelling by tuktuk would have been more comfortableContinue reading “Padrão dos Descobrimentos”
Aerial
Wednesday a week ago, we went on a city trip to Lisbon. Our flight left late in the afternoon and as it was a small plane, it was easy to see the views from the window. I snapped some photos on my phone (I was too lazy to take my big one out of theContinue reading “Aerial”
