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.

The next day, Rebecca and I went into the Langtang valley towards the Langshisha Kharka mountain. We walked about 3 hours in and 3 hours out again. More or less it is flat – still, somehow it does drain energy. We did meet this guy, 2 yak shepherds, and a Russian trekker. Tranquility in definition…
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…

cheers Beata – Robert! the mountains are waiting for you!!
If there are any other people that you see, ask them to take the photo. Or, some cameras have the timer. Or, simply hold out the camera at arms length, and then make that award-winning photo. I’m truly impressed, sir.
