For more than a thousand years, Florence has been a universal symbol of beauty.
And rightly so.

My good friend Mike is the proud owner of a classic 2006 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado V6 VVT-i.
Today's post is about a nice trip with this "beast" in the snow.

2024 was a rather strange year. Just a few good news around the globe and not an overall optimistic time of our lives. On a more personal note…

There are a few places in every country that are a must visit. Places that are inextricably linked to the country and are usually unique attractions.

I'm a fan of F1. Not the most fanatical, but I often watch, with great pleasure. The GOAT of Grand Prixs must be the Monaco Grand Prix. As for the Goat of F1…

Well, it's simple. Some people in their field have been unsurpassed in every sense of the word.
In photography that man was undoubtedly Henri Cartier-Bresson.

Hidden amidst beautiful nature, is the small village of Zachlorou (or Kato Zachlorou). It is an ideal destination for a quiet three days escape, away....

Christos and I met a few years ago. We discovered that we have a lot of common acquaintances (Athens is a big town anyway). He is one of the actors…

One of the best trips I've taken in recent years was to Arcadia.
I was again with my beloved Olga Harami. Olga is fearless, irrepressible and the perfect traveling companion for photo expeditions. I've rafted with her, walked in a forest where a bear had appeared a few days before, bumped my head on ancient stones and been at her side as driver or co-driver on endless miles of countless winding roads all over Greece.

A few years ago, we visited dear friends who live in beautiful Ghent with their cat Copper and the most beautiful little boy in the world.
Hopefully I will take photographs of this little baby and show it to you in a few years time.

As you all know, I am not really fond of weddings.
Having said that, once upon a time, more than a decade ago, I accepted Katerina’s invitation to her brother’s wedding with my camera. Katerina is a very nice young woman and I was more than happy to visit Nafplio and meet these beautiful families.

Built on a peninsula between the homonymous lagoon and that of Kleisova, at the mouth of the Evinos and Acheloos rivers, Missolonghi is a rather indifferent modern small city.

It was September 2022 when my wife and I landed in Marseille for the first time and in a strange turn of events, less than 45 days later, I came to live in this city for almost 2 months.
I had never been to France before (I had only landed once in Paris catching α plane to Cuba). More about that in another post, where I'll describe the whole... French experience.

Today, I just wanted to present a gigantic, detailed panorama of the city of Marseille.
I have a love-hate relationship with this city and will explain it in more detail in next week’s post, but until then you are welcome to zoom in and wander around.
