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.

Another lazy day. Went to visit the Pope’s house today. I can imagine how many tourists are here in summer. Right next to our place is a little coffee bar with a real “Barista” he works on the right of the bar. On the left they have lots of different snacks – all fresh prepared….

A few Days in Italy in Fall 2017 – Part 2 – Brescia

Good Morning Brescia One of the reasons I chose Villa Noce was the Breakfast mentioned in the reviews. If you went to Italy yourself, you know what awaits you in a typical local hotel that usually has Italian customers only. Coffee and a few sweets, and that is that. A pleasant surprise awaited at the…
