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.

Of course there are a lot of other boats on the water in Venice not only Gondolas! All in all it was a little bit like Istanbul sometimes. Specially when you are at the old custom house where the canals are wide. A lot of traffic – one can sit for a long time before…

Pictures of Gondolas in Venice, Italy

A Gondola is usually propelled by a Gondolier (since 2010 there is one woman who is allowed to do that too). The Gondola is like a symbol for Venice. If you see one on a picture you will think of Venice as well. For centuries gondolas were the most widely used boat and form of…
