2016-08-21 WINE TASTING IN SICILY

I have been at this agrirutrismo location in Sicily before noon, so I had to step back a bit with the offered wine tasting. There has been two kinds of red and white wine, olive oil and Sicilian with bread to try. After tasting it was possible to buy the products to enjoy them at home. 🙂

2016-08-20 WHICH BURGER IN TOKYO

Some McDonalds in Tokyo got a really cool, modern design. Even some burgers are Japanese style, with wasabi and teriyaki sauce. It’s worth a try, really good and not expensive.

At Swarovski’s Crystal World you can enter a crystal room which is completely built from glass. It’s formed as a dome with thousands of glass elements in different sizes and dimensions which mirrors visitors on hundreds of glass pieces throughout this room.

2016-08-18 MALTA THE SUNNY ISLAND

In Malta I have never seen a roof which is not flat. Nearly every house is built from the same sort of stone, it looks like a bright-beige sandy brick. If you get a window place in the plane, after taking off, you are able to see the stone quarry with brickyard, where those stones are produced.

2016-08-16 RIVER AND SKY

Two different views of the same river, blue sky and with grey sky. Mostly the landscape around the Danube is flat, it arises from the Black Forest in Germany and flows into the Black Sea in Romania. It flows through 10 countries and is 2,860 km (1,780 mi) long, the longest river of the EU.

2016-08-15 ARCHITECTURE IN NEW YORK

I am often thinking of which kind of architecture I like most… it depends on the city, in the US or in Asia I prefer the glass facades, in the older towns of Europe I like the buildings with pillars and ornaments.

2016-08-14 NIGHTLY WALK IN AMERSFOORT

It’s not only Amsterdam were bikes are popular, they are popular in Amersfoort too. So we explored this city mostly by bike. In the night we placed them on a safe place and did a walking tour where we observed that also some canals trench this town.

2016-08-13 GONDOLAS IN THE DAWN

In Venice you can use the water busses as sightseeing busses, they have an open deck where you’re able to take photos in all directions. It’s a bit tricky to handle the camera shake, because the water and the boat are never calm enough, but you get rewarded with an impressive view.

2016-08-12 THE HILL WITH BRATISLAVA CASTLE

Entering Bratislava by car you see the buildings of many tech companies like Amazon, Oracle and Microsoft. The Slovakian government offers a good tax scheme for those companies. In the city center you can take a bus tour which brings you to Bratislava castle where you get a beautiful view of the city.
