South Iceland, a touch of Infinite
From up North directly to down South, destination the South Coast of Iceland and hopefully the black sand beaches of Vik. Well, it was too windy to make it down there. For a moment the little van we were in couldn’t even stay on the road. What a day, what an adventure, what […]
Back to Reykjavik and heading South
I left the North, Isafjordur almost with sadness today. I knew if I would have stayed longer, I risked to get stucked there for days due to the bad weather. But on the way to the airport and even more on the plane, looking at such beauty under my feet, so pure, so untouched, […]
Hjalmar! Simply amazing!
This was really one of the warmest welcome ever had in a new place.I knew they were cool,but the atmoshere was incredible at that concert hall, yesterday. All the show was in Icelandic.The only thing I understood was “takk fyrir”, thanks, and at the end I got the satisfaction to to say the same to […]
Today Iceland!
The doubt at the moment is: from Isafjordur, shall I take a lift by car to go back to Reykjavik, so I can see Iceland all the way down by car, enjoying and crossing amazing landscapes, or shall I take a flight to Egilstadir, on the east part of the Iceland, flying on the heart […]
Prekenstolen, on the rock!
When I wrote the page below in 2003 I was exactly on the top of what you are watching on the photos now! Yeah! I was on the top of the Prekestolen and it was one of the greatest feelings ever! I was traveling through Norway since one month,at the end of […]
Queenstown – The Queen of the Southern Emisphere towns
Queenstown, New Zealand, March 21st 2008 This town perfectly embodies the spirit of New Zealand, with its colours, its flavours, the little interweaving streets and its people… the wonderful people who live in this place kissed by the gods…. Queenstown has not only welcomed me, but hugged me and literally made my fly. […]
My Nordic world – Reykjavik
Reykjavik, Iceland, March 8th 2010 Allora, my first impression of this Iceland and of the Icelanders: it’s a warm isle, and the Scandinavian world looks so far away from up here. The Icelanders are not as tall as I had imagined, and there are a lot of people with brown hair, much more than […]
And finally Amsterdam
Amsterdam, The Netherlands, September 25th 2008 Let’s say that as of today my Dutch life in Amsterdam has officially started. After so much contemplation I let go of my laziness and I finally took my bike, and I must admit, I finally see everything with fresh eyes. Finally I see the town like the Dutch, […]
My first impression of Lisbon
Lisbon, Portugal, May 1st 2005 This new journey is one of Mediterranean destinations a completely different world from the one I usually love to visit. Lisboa sings to me of far-away lands that these wanderers dreamt and sought first move here in their minds and then beyond the horizon. Contamination is the word that […]
Edinburgh, piece of my heart
Edinburgh, Scotland, July 15th 2004 Wonderful, to the point that it takes your breath away. Edinburgh is all this and more. I have only been here a few hours and it has already enchanted me. I think it is the most beautiful town I have ever seen. I’m still without words, I let […]
Heading North: Trondheim
Trondheim, Norway, June 11th 2003 After five months I return to my diary and to my life. Five months that I should have commented on but I preferred instead to leave them in silence, to then recapture them here , from THE North, from the furthest North I have ever been, and that I know […]
