Lucky me, thanks to my job I was spending some great, informative and splendid moments in Barcelona. I somehow forgotten about the city since I was last here over 15 years ago. I extented my stay for the weekend and started to explore the city. No plan just walking for hours. After lunch I passed…

I love Budapest / lovely Weather (part2)
I was blessed with the weather today. Walked around Buda Castle area down to the river into the city. Since beginning of the year the shops are closed on Sunday’s as well: ” We are copying Germany here.” Is what the concierge told me. Wasn’t sure if he liked it actually…. …
Sunday Afternoon in Memory-Lane-Land: Budapest (part1)
Apparently a new interpretation of fast in Berlin which confused over 50 people still waiting to get through security 15 min before actual departure. As there is no direct flight from Berlin to Budapest I stopped over in Munich. I had mixed feelings about my trip: very excited because I like the city very much…
Sunday excursion / 30C / Potsdam – I like castles

Summer Sunday afternoon / Brighton 30+ years later / memory lane
Decided to go and have a look at Brighton again. After all I am not that far away this weekend and it has been some time since I was there last. Easy train ride, less than 2 hours to get there…… It was actually ok – and expected that I wasn’t the only one with…
Afternoon in Britain / I love summer
Just a few images I took on my afternoon walk yesterday. So close to Germany and yet so different: it always amazes me.
Leaving to arrive – after over 10 years: Beijing I am coming /7th of May
I was sad to leave Mongolia. What an impressive country with wonderful friendly and lovely people. I for sure will come back o explore further. At least I got a sneak preview 🙂 It was a short trip to Beijing which in itself was already a bit sad, cause I got used to the forced…
