Tripping

It's really been a while since I last wrote down some of my thoughts. The past couple of months have been great on so many levels.
I've managed to find that satisfaction in life. Just enjoying every single day I get to live. Making new friends, visiting new places and making new memories. Through this all, I have to keep remembering not to loose touch with "old" friends. As much as I loathe it, I guess I will have to start planning time with friends a bit more consistently. So if any friends are reading this, hit me up with a proposal. :)

In february, I went back to Lisbon. Spent a couple of days walking around and remembering why I love it so much there.  If I had the means, I'd be in Lisbon at least every couple of months. The first day or two, I was quite nervous about bumping into the reason why I visited Lisbon the other times. Thankfully, this didn't happen. I got to revisit a lot of places and enjoyed my time spent there. Took some beautiful pictures, met new people and got my eyes opened regarding other people. All in all, a learning experience.

For my birthday, I rewarded myself with a trip to Malta. One of the most spontaneously trips I've taken so far.
I spent more time rediscovering my photography and took some of my best photo's to date. I also discovered the delight of just have a drink with a stranger and chatting, with no ulterior motive.
I still can't fathom an island with nearly three times the population of my native island can live together on three-fourths the surface area. And yet, it never felt crowded.

Aachen also was graced with my presence, albeit for just 24 hours. Hanswurst still rocks! And guess what... I took more pictures there. My trusty new camera is sure getting a workout. :)

I foresee more trips in the future for me and my camera,

I know this blog hasn't been as deep as in the past, but sometimes life is about the lighter stuff to.

Till the next blog.
