Whenever the sun is shining and providing some pretty light, I like to take a walk through my neighborhood in Haarlem, The Netherlands. Preferably when there is not too much wind , because wind causes flowers to sway and move. And that’s not handy for making pics of flowers. These pictures are from a stroll […]
Three months in Haarlem, the Netherlands
My three months in Holland are coming to an end soon. Next week I fly to Singapore. A lot happened this May, June and July. No dramatic events, just daily life and casual things. I had a great time. Here’s a photo reportage of the past months: I enjoyed being around my friends: 1.Jo, on […]
BoHo Gypsy
Being at home in the Netherlands these months -so no travelling- does not mean I cannot LOOK like a Wandering BoHo Gyspy;-)! I felt for an extravagant boho look today. Do you like it or is it too much for you? And since we are talking about fashion now anyways, I was featured today with […]
Curly Traveller on Instagram
The last two things that kept me busy last winter in Holland were Instagram and Paper53. A bit over half a year ago, I became active as Curly Traveller on Instagram. Although the original thought of Instagram is to post pics, taken with your smartphone, I post pictures, taken with my photo camera. Main […]
Dutch photography
When I am away from home, I usually walk around with two camera’s, ready to take some nice pictures. But if I am home in Holland, I tend to do that a lot less. Fortunately I succeed to take some pictures at least incidentally, making that my fourth excuse not to blog when I […]
Holland: making new friends
In my last posts I told you how friends, family and fashion kept me from blogging for three months. Well, it was not only catching up with old friends that kept me so busy, but also meeting new ones! This cosmopolitan gyspsy life of mine, and the fact that online the whole world […]
Holland: fashion shoots and fun
So, as I was telling you, I somehow never get to blogging when at home in the Netherlands. In my previous post I explained that being busy with catching up with friends and family is one of the reasons for that. Another activity that keeps me busy is doing fashion shoots and having […]
Holland: catching up with friends and family
There I am again, after three months of blogging silence! I know, not a smart thing to do for a blogger; consistency and continuity are of the utmost importance. But during my months in the Netherlands I don’t get to blogging, somehow. Why, may you ask? What’s keeping me so busy? Well, […]
What is there to see and do in Haarlem?
The other day someone asked me why I am blogging about India, while being in the Netherlands at the moment…don’t I find Haarlem interesting enough to photograph and blog about? The answer is: ofcourse Haarlem and Holland are beautiful as well ! I just want to continue with and finish my India series, while the […]
Udaipur’s animals
My most recent post about Udaipur featured it’s colorful women. In today’s post I’d like to share with you some of my animal pictures, taken when wandering through Udaipur’s streets. The number of cows, oxen, bulls, donkeys and camels is enormous. There are many dogs as well, but I only show you a tiny, pet puppy, […]
