Colourful Colmar

Colmar is one of those picturesque towns in France that are overflowing with colour. Located in the Alsace region in France at the French - German - Swiss border, it is easily accessible from Freiburg in Germany and from Basel in Switzerland.

Market Impressions - Aleppo Souq, Syria

Possibly one of the most lively and authentic experiences one can have in the Middle East would be that of visiting one of the bazaars, such as the Aleppo Souq (or Souk) in Syria.

A flower in the sky

Potsdamer Platz in Berlin was once one of the busiest squares in Europe with bars and clubs that were alive day and night. With the advent of the Second World War, that all changed - turning this area into an empty site full of ruins of what once had been. Along came the Berlin Wall, which divided the city, until the fall of the Iron Curtain.

Mdina, Malta

Pjazza San Publiju, Mdina, Malta


One of my favourite places in Malta (and the World) definitely has to be Mdina. I love the charm of our "Silent City", with its narrow winding streets, medieval buildings and the honey coloured limestone that one cannot help but admire. I took the following photo on a clear day in July 2010 in "Pjazza San Publiju" or St. Publius Square.
