We spotted this “elephant” while on our way back from Berlengas Island to Peniche, Portugal. Although we were traveling by speedboat at a dizzying pace (almost flying over the waves of the Atlantic) the captain of the boat slowed down at this rock formation and allowed Nico to capture the Berlengas Elephant at sunset.

Many ask “where is the best place to see a laser show in Singapore?”. We found one solution to this: rent an Airbnb overlooking Marina Bay and drive up to the top viewing floor of the skyscraper, just when it starts to get dark. This photo of the spectacle of lasers in Singapore was […]

Burano is an island just 7 kilometers from Venice, Italy. You can get there by water bus from Venice (Vaporetto) or by water taxi. Although Venice itself is an intense experience that will take you a minimum of a few days, Burano is definitely worth making room for in your itinerary. Burano is known for […]

When Dubai Marina opened, it was the world’s first man-made marina of this size. Not in “one day Rome was built” as they say. This is also how the Marina was built in phases. In 2018, the entire marina complex was inhabited by around 55,000 people. The target for the Marina expansion, however, is […]

Carrasqueira is a village belonging to the municipality of Alcácer do Sal. This Carrasqueira Palafitic pier is located only 3 kilometers from the beaches of Comporta and about 15 kilometers from Tróia. The place is still used by fishermen but is also a “hidden jam” for photographers. A few hundred meters of the Carrasqueira […]

That “spiral” tower in the photo is the “Fanar” mosque, which is part of the Al-Fanar Islamic Cultural Centre in Doha. It is probably one of the most distinctive buildings in the Qatari capital, but the mosque is not the whole complex… Al-Fanar Islamic Cultural Centre is the older name for this cultural centre. […]

Al Khor port is one of the „cradles” of Qatar. It was here that the Al Muhannadi clan, (which consisted of seven Bedouin families), founded the city, which became part of the State of Qatar after 1971. As with Doha, the main occupation of the Bedouin in this region was fishing and pearl fishing. […]

“Porto Arabia” is one of the attractions at “The Pearl” that should not get lost on your list of places to visit in Doha. The very fact that the entire district of “The Pearl” is man-made (this peninsula did not exist on the map before), deserves attention and a visit. The entire “The Pearl Qatar” […]

Madeira is probably the best place in southern Europe to see the various populations of dolphins and whales. Depending on the season, about 8 kinds of whales and more than 20 kinds of dolphins can be spotted off the coast of Madeira. Theoretically, the best time to see dolphins and whales is between April […]

Aveiro is nicknamed the “Venice of Portugal.” This association is fully justified if you first see Aveiro’s distinctive “Moilceiros” boats and the network of water canals crisscrossing the city centre. And like in Venice, the bridges in Aveiro are also distinctive. The one in the photo is called “Ponte do Laço” or simply “Circular Pedestrian […]
