Iran #1
A year ago we traveled around Iran for two weeks. It was an intense, tightly-packed schedule as we tried to see as much as we could in so little time of a country that is five times the size of Germany and has a lot […]

Incredible India – Part Two
Voila, a bit more of India’s magic! Part Two of my parent’s India photos, edited using VSCO.
Cuba #7 – Magical Havana
Havana is a city like no other. The colonial architecture, the music, the busy street life, the colours, the cigar dealers, the cars – it is uniquely beautiful. We spent many days just wandering about the streets of Centro Habana, which I preferred 100% to the touristy […]
Cuba #5 – Amazing Light
Uni is killing me at the moment so I decided to give myself a little treat by looking through my Cuba photos again. For this little category there were hundreds of photos to choose from. Sunsets, thunderstorms, night skies, sunrise, sun rays in the jungle, pretty […]
Cuba #4 – They have this thing called communism
Cuba was a lot more communist and dysfunctional than I expected. Communism and South American lifestyle – the worst possible combination ever if you like to get things done. God, it was a pain in the ass to get what you wanted. I’m not a […]
Cuba #2 – People
Cuban people either greet with you with the biggest smile or scare you away with a terrifying death stare. I love how life here takes place on the street. Half the population is chilling on their front door step. The other quarter of people carefully […]
Schönes schönes Istanbul
Topkapi Palace, Grand Bazaar and Süleymaniye Mosque – the sightseeing continues on day three. It was a really hot day for all the sightseeing and we weren’t exactly alone but it was stunning anyway! V. and me spent more than three hours getting lost in the many […]
Nice to meet you, Istanbul!
I don’t know why my sister and me have never travelled together before. Just the two of us. We’ve been raised to travel and visit foreign countries the same way. Not only have we learned to appreciate the same things but we also have the same idea […]
Lebanon – the melting pot for everything
After an intense day of sightseeing in Beiteddine, my second day in Lebanon was very relaxed with a bit of beach and a bit of culture. We took the car up North from Beirut, along the seaside road until we reached the many beach clubs of Batroun. There is a very […]
Malaysian Memories
This trip happened a long long time ago. It was the summer that we graduated from school and I just can’t get my head around the fact that that’s almost three years ago. After lots of parties in London, hopping around European capitals, relaxing days in […]
Aimless Wandering in Alfama, Lisbon
While our big bears where still fast asleep, R. M. and me set off for a day of aimless wandering around the beautiful neighbourhood of Bairro Alto and Alfama. Without a plan of where we wanted to go, we were roaming the streets and just let […]
Sightseeing in Lisbon
We quickly established a wake up routine in Lisbon: a big mug of coffee on our sunny balcony followed by a quick run to the nearest bakery to get about 12 pastels de nata. The more I’ve been looking through my Portugal photos, the more […]
Fieldtrip to Dorset
Most of you probably don’t know that I study Civil Engineering. I’m not sure whether this makes me super lame or interesting cool. I personally haven’t even made up my mind yet whether to find engineering cool or not. But modules like soils, fluid mechanics or structures make me think less […]
Weekend Getaway in the Cotswolds
I’m still alive – I know it’s been a while since I last posted. The last couple of weeks were crazy, es ging drunter und drüber. For those of you who are here for the photos, I’d suggest you skip this massive chunk of text […]
Black and Whites from Italy
Almost every photo I took in Tuscany was dipped into this amazing golden light. Which of course makes it fun and easy to photograph, but there’s only that many pictures of landscapes and sunsets before you get bored of it. So I decided to, every now and […]
Roadtrippin through Tuscany
Pienza, Siena, Buonconvento, Montepulciano, Montealcino, Florence… the list of beautiful cities and villages to visit is endless. We’ve got our few favourite spots that we go to every single summer, like this one restaurant in Pienza with the best Pici with wild boar ragout – one […]
