When in Japan for the first time, it’s almost a given to visit Kyoto.




This mainly means different kinds of temples, but I would urge all of you who have never been to Kyoto to keep your expectations in check. Most areas of the city don’t look that “different” from what you may already be accustomed to (depending on where your journey through Japan starts). This is not necessarily a bad thing, but it’s something to keep in mind so you’re not disappointed when you arrive.





Apart from some of the more obvious stops, like Senbon torii, you can always very easily avoid crowds by simply visiting some of the more remote temples in the outer parts of the city. So, if you’re getting overwhelmed, you can just have a look at your maps app and take a small detour.

Street photography in Athens
Last December I visited Athens for the first time. And I already know, it won’t be for the last time.

I recently visited Madrid and enjoyed the sunny weather with its harsh shadows during the day. This turns even simple things like windows with some plants into interesting subjects. It gets even more interesting, of course, when people cast their long shadows on walls.



There were many beautiful sunsets, still present as reflections when taking pictures of well-known landmarks, combing tourist hot spots with a drink, which I personally enjoy. At night, the city lights up with countless neon signs, glowing bars, eateries and their visitors.


And then, of course, there are the dogs, so many cute dogs.
