Wedding in Austria
A couple of weeks ago I had a chance to take some photos in a small Austrian wedding in Steyr. Thomas and Christina got married in the midst of old castle walls, the greenery of the surrounding park and their family, children and closest friends.
A thought about travelling
One day a short while ago I caught myself thinking about travelling. What came out was something that vaguely resembles a poem (but would never really classify as one, of course). No idea why I wrote it, it just sort of happened.

There’s something about Laos
Approximately 2 and a half years ago I spent a few weeks in Laos trekking in the villages of the Northern part of the country, then flying from the sleepy Vientiane to the sizzling hot Ho Chi Minh City and continuing my way up to the Sa Pa area in Vietnam. Somehow I never came …
