About me
As far as I can remember I've been travelling since early 90s. And I started to take photos while I'm on the road. No, I'm not a professional. But I like recording what I see on the go!
Several years ago, I was checking my travel photos on my computer. They were about thousands. Tens of thousands since 2002. Tens of thousands of stories... (Love my Canon!)
So I made my decision to share some of them with other people. I quit Facebook (rarely use it), installed Instagram on my mobile, used Blurb to press my own hardcopied travel photo books.

It all started with Finland!
I adore Scandic lifestyle. Simple, elegant and functional! When I first travelled to Helsinki for a business trip years ago, I never knew that it would change my point of view about Scandinavia and the life itself. Being in the North is happiness!
The feeling to explore new places and having a destination are the most important motivations in my life. I’ve spent most of my spare times fighting an incurable case of being a wanderlust.

What I watch somewhere, read on books or see on the internet inspire me to see the world. I feel like I was not trying enough to reach my dreams. So I appreciate people who encourage me to do it.
Yes I work
Many people often ask how I can afford to keep traveling. Simple... Just priorities! I don't smoke, I'm not ambitious to have fancy things, I don't spend money on shopping to buy something extra for myself etc. The key is learning to live with less and, above all, compromise. And yes... I have an ordinary job. I work for a telcommunication company about the new and next generation technologies. Somewhere between technical and management divisions...
Travelling a lot
And I remember each experience I learnt.
I would like to thank all people who we enjoyed our time there and helped me to endure difficulties in Shenzhen.

I agree with you
I travelled a lot and they all were beautiful. But I still have destinations to go, hopes, questions, people I will meet and new experiences. As in the song I love...
