One would think that, given all the amazing imagery and stories out there, I would have found my way to Norway earlier. We were debating making the trip last year, but with the Mont Blanc climb, there just wasn’t enough time. You hear it often described as a mix between Scotland and New Zealand …

days of you & me
My friends Nicole and Nevin got married this past weekend in a beautiful beach house in Maine. As they had officially signed a few weeks earlier, this was more of a casual wedding party with friends and family. Here’s how it went down… The obligatory hanging dress & accessories shots 😉 …
zanzibar, stone town
One of the highlights of my trip was definitely the island of Zanzibar. There will be more posts on its incredible beaches and scenery in the coming weeks (takes me quite a bit of time to properly display the photos and tell the story, apologies), but part of its charm is the popular Stone …
mind over matter or climbing kilimanjaro (5,895m)
I’ve been meaning to climb Kili for some time now. I’d read it was the most accessible out of the Seven Summits (highest on each continent) and it seemed like a good starting point to going well over 5,000m and tackling some of the other Seven down the line 😉 For a couple of …
drunken hearts like overflowing cups
A few moments from last night’s festivities… Happy New Year, all! 🙂

Our first stop for the trip around the Alps was the Italian Dolomites where we were going to do some via ferratas for a couple of days. We slept in this beautiful hut, Rifugio Brentei. The little construction you see behind it and in the second photo is in fact a shrine filled with …
the mighty alps
I can’t think of a better word to describe the Alps than “mighty”.. it was an incredible two-week trip that took us around Switzerland, Italy and France, from neat little towns huddled at the foot of the mountain to snow-capped peaks way over 4,000m and anything in between. One thing is certain – it is …
olde times yore
in the spirit of children’s day (celebrated on june 1 in bulgaria) and embarrassing myself even further (because why not, right? we can all use a good laugh), i present to you the second edition of photos from my early days after the critically acclaimed for auld lang syne. …
there, where time has stopped
there are still places out there that are disconnected from the accelerated world we are a part of today. places where globalization hasn’t changed the way people live, where having a high-paying job and a luxury car is not a priority, where even time seems like it’s moving somehow differently. this is one of them. …
