I like to travel, and I like to snap pictures!
My mother got me an Eurorail ticket when I was 15, and together with two friends, we adventured into France. This was the beginning of a new addiction. I do like to take pictures, so one thing leads to another. On this site, I want to share some of my pictures and some of my trips with you!
Now I am on the road for more than 8 months every year. Visiting old friends and making new friends while exploring this big blue ball.

More Pix from the Langtang National Park
As the days get shorter and the nights get colder people here in the Langtang National Park prepare for winter. That means the harvest has to be brought in and prepared for storage. Yak dung gets dried in the sun for cooking fires as well as heating. It is nice to watch the locals work…
From Upper Pisang to Ghyaru on the Annapurna Trek in Nepal
Another Mani Wall – this time in the middle of nowhere? Ghyaru – after a step and hot climb without shadow – this is the place for a rest. Well it is only 400 meters up – but at one swoop… After the Tea and 2 apples it was time to continue the walk –…
