I am not a professional photographer. I do it out of passion and what I’ve learned until now is the result of a ton of practice. When I look back at what I was shooting a few years back… I am very happy with my progress. Fun fact, I am still using the same camera […]
Travel tips: (Re)Discovering Bucharest
I can’t say it enough, but I love the Bucharest I keep discovering! Tiny insight… I was born and raised here, but until 3 years ago, for me, Bucharest was small, ugly and gray. What started changing my perspective? It was the first edition of Experience Bucharest. I was looking from the side lines how […]
Romania: on the other side of stereotypes
If I would be in a room full of people from all around the world and I would ask: “What do you know about Romania?”, I would probably get a few confused looks (as in “…about what?”), I’d get a few “Dracula & Transylvania” and probably some would say “a country full of gypsies*“. And […]

Beautiful Landscapes – The Northern Italian Lakes
Due to the lack of travel this past year, I’ve been going through my many many photos of Italy. It is truly one of the most beautiful countries in the world. And it doesn’t matter if it’s a hip modern city like Milano, breathtaking landscapes, the ancient ruins in Rome or love stories in Verona! […]
Athens – The good, the bad, the ugly
If my bank account would allow it, I’d spontaneously plan trips all the time. So here I am, mid February, freezing in gloomy Bucharest, editing photos of blue waters and sunny landscapes from Malta. I would have given anything for a few warm sunny days! So out of nowhere I find myself browsing Ryan Air […]
My Malta Travel Guide
I’m sitting at my desk listening to Groove Armada, contemplating how from 19°C yesterday, I almost slipped on ice this morning. Ironic how Youtube just jumped to the next song – Inside my mind (blue skies). And for the past two weeks there have been blue skies on my mind… and on my Instagram account. […]
Colorful Malta: Marsaxlokk fishing village
Looking for a cool spring destination? How about Malta? This little Mediterranean archipelago is located between Sicily and the African coast and it’s the 5th smallest country in Europe. Smaller than Andorra if you can believe that! It has some great places to visit from limestone cities to amazing blue waters, superb coast line views […]
Fortified churches of Transylvania
I am fascinated by churches and religious structures in general. Not because I’m a religious person (I would probably lean more towards being an atheist), but because of their design, art and what they represented at the time they were built. There are currently about 150 well preserved fortified churches spread throughout Transylvania, out of […]
