Napoli, Città di Dio

A cocktail of chaos, noise, narrow streets, imposing buildings, fresh lemonades, deep fried street food, Maradona portraits and postcard views… Napoli is a city I can’t help but love for all of its facets.

Meta & Sorrento

Morning coffees, evening Limoncellos, abundant citrus fruit and the Mediterranean air in Meta and Sorrento quickly propelled me into summer mode.

Šaštin

It’s been three years since I’ve last visited the small village of Šaštin in Slovakia and it has stayed virtually unchanged - for now.

Lastres in B&W

When I think of Lastres, a warm, vibrant colour palette comes to mind. Yet there is another side to this small coastal village that only comes alive once you drain it of its colours.

Nice in B&W

I was so drawn to colour that I didn’t much care for potential black & white subjects - nevertheless, I do love this small selection of monochrome shots from our short spring getaway.

Nice in Colour

I just came back from a long weekend in Nice and - because the joke never gets old - it was very nice indeed.

In the northernmost point of Türkiye, the question we were asked the most was “Why are you here?”. Scenes from a not-yet-busy destination on the Black Sea.

Istanbul

The first word that comes to mind when I think of this endless metropolis is “overwhelming” - and I mean that in the best way. Some impressions of a week in Istanbul.

Turkish Flags

After having spent a month in Türkiye, I can safely say I’ve never seen as many national flags anywhere else. A small collection.
