2019 Iceland
Iceland in December – seven short days in the South and West
Silke Gondolf // Europe
2019 London
“Ayes” or “Noes” – visiting London. People have enough of politics, they just want it over with (Brexit) and continue their lives.
2018 Russia
Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kanonerka, Kaluga, Wolgograd, Rossoschka:
Russia just before the Soccer World Cup in 2018, a surprising positive mix of people and circumstances.
2016 Georgia (Country)
Tbilisi, Svenetia, Tsvirmi, Mestia
Driving through the North Kaukasus during spring time need good luck. Stones breaking lose from the mountains blocking the roads and finishing lives. The landscape is breathtaking, the food is the best I had so far and the people are wonderful.
2016 Denmark
Aarhus
Danish men take out their shorts and T-shirts when it is 8 degrees Celsius. Vikings!
2016 Austria
Vienna
The only country I know, where TOAST is something so special, that restaurants post it specifically.
2015 Bulgaria
Varna, Balschik
Cheap Thrills: Golden Sands Tourism. This is the place where European schoolkids party and things get out of control – intentionally.
2015 Moldova
Chisinau, Dorotcaia, Crocmaz
Moldova’s simplicity is comforting. Spending a couple of days in a public school, at the border of Transnistria, was inspiring. Moldovans have solutions for almost everything.
2015 Poland
Galiny, Bartoczyce, Wegorzewo
The north of Poland, with its tree-lined avenues, the never-ending horizon and storks nesting in small villages. Peaceful.
2014 Europe
Brussels, Paris, Warsaw
Europe, a construction for which no one has a feel.
