Everyone will recall seeing the rows and rows of snow-white gravestones at some point in their lives, and in the flesh, it’s even more eerie than you could ever imagine. Housing the gravestones of all American soldiers to have died in combat since the Civil War right through to the ongoing conflict in Afghanistan, the […]
Photo Of The Week – Beautiful Tallinn By Dusk
October 21, 2011 by 4 Comments
Tallinn is probably not on most people’s ‘travel-radars’ but it should be – especially in winter. It’s not only one of the most colourful cities in Europe, but in the snow-filled months it comes to life and makes for some spectacular photos. As winter is coming up you should definitely keep Tallinn in the back […]
Photo Of The Week – ‘Helvetia On Her Travels’, Basel
October 14, 2011 by 8 Comments
I love art that has an interesting story behind it, so I was ecstatic to find this statue of ‘Helvetia On Her Travels‘ while walking along the river Rhine in Basel. The story goes that Helvetia once turned her back on the heroic (very much going against the mould in the time she lived!) and […]
Photo Of The Week – The Berlin East Side Gallery
October 7, 2011 by 5 Comments
Berlin is one of my favourite cities in the world. Not only was it the epicentre of some of the greatest events in history, but it’s also evolved into a hip hangout for creatives and culture lovers from all around the world. I was fascinated by the Berlin Wall when I visited, and wandered in […]
Photo Of The Week – A Gorgeous Day In The Alps
September 30, 2011 by 2 Comments
It’s almost snow season again, so I thought it was fitting to bring out this picture taken on a beautiful winters day in Val d’isere in the French Alps. It’s a good reminder for me (and you guys!) to start planning your snow trips now – you’ll find some great deals, or maybe even a new […]
Photo Of The Week – The All American Truck Stop
September 23, 2011 by 3 Comments
Driving along route 66 in the good ol’ US of A we stopped at this colourful truck stop to grab souvenirs and stretch the legs on the way to the Grand Canyon. It was so eye-catching it reminded me of something out of National Lampoons Vacation, but sadly Chevy Chase was nowhere to be seen… I did […]
Photo Of The Week – Mumbai Girls
September 16, 2011 by 2 Comments
You see so many interesting people in India, and I was fascinated in particular with all the kids who would follow and talk to us while we were exploring the streets of Mumbai. These girls made me laugh – they followed us for a good few hundred metres giggling, but when we turned around […]
Photo Of The Week – London Fashion Street
September 9, 2011 by 9 Comments
As you may know, I love street art, and recently I went on a tour around London’s east end to see some of the city’s best pieces – from Banksy’s political satire, right through to the colourful little ‘critter’ tiles by Invader that seem to be staring down at you when you least expect it. […]
Photo Of The Week – Colourful Nyhavn In Black And White
September 2, 2011 by 3 Comments
Copenhagen is one of my favourite cities in Europe – I loved the history, food and bars, and had so much fun wandering the city streets photographing anything interesting that I could find. I particularly loved the area of Nyhavn with its colourfully-painted restaurants along the water – this is where most tourists flock to in […]
Photo Of The Week – The Most Photographed Street in America
August 26, 2011 by 8 Comments
I had never heard of Acorn Street In Beacon Hill, Boston when I visited the city last year, but after walking the cobbled streets and speaking with locals we found out that it is actually the most photographed street in the whole of the USA – pretty crazy! The funny thing was, after the trip I started […]
