St. Patrick’s day parade in Cork 2012
The weather was remarkably good this morning. The sun was shining, loads of people went out on the streets dressed in green, there were children eveywhere waving Irish flags, farmer’s market was up and running on Grand parade. I just love St.Patrick’s day! [...]-
Evening view over Paris from the Eiffel Tower
The timing was pretty extreme, we decided to climb the Eiffel tower the same day we arrived to Paris, and of course we didn’t buy the tickets in advance, so we almost missed a very beautiful sunset. But we made it! [...] -
Halloween in Cork: street fashion
Last night I took my camera for a walk to take pictures of the Halloween costumes and people partying around. There were so many crazy awesome costumes and wild makeups! I never realized that on Halloween streets of Cork turn into one huge party. [...] -
Germany – Czech Republic car trip 2011
That was an incredible road trip. We got a car in Munich, went to Prague for 2 days, returned to Germany and drove round for 4 days, stayed in small hotels and tried local food on the way. We ended up in Prien am Chiemsee in the end. Read more for all posts and photos from that trip. [...] -
Prague from the Petřín Lookout Tower
Petřín Tower is very compact, and it’s pretty easy to take the stairs to the top and back . If the weather is clear you can see the whole Prague underneath. And the view is definitely worth it. Petřín Tower is famous for it’s resemblance with the Eiffel Tower, but it definitely has it's own character. [...] -
Aran Islands
This time we spent 3 days on Inis Mór in Kilmurvey b&b, had the best Irish stew every day. Also walked to Dún Aonghasa in the evening and caught a beautiful sunset. There was no one on the cliffs in that time, the wind was strong and the waves were high as never. [...] -
Abandoned Cork
If you go up the Barrack street in direction of the Bandon road you will find yourself in the area of empty shops, closed bars, abandoned takeaways. You can see, that some time ago this area was full of life. [...] -

Sunny weekend in Crosshaven
First thing first – I am going on vacation! Leaving for Rome in few hours! I will try to post something from Rome, I should have internet in the hotel. But if I don’t, it would be because I’m busy walking around and taking photos, eating tasty pizza and ice-cream, enjoying the sun and the heat, buying all the stuff that I want to buy, sightseeing and having a long night sleep. Vacation!
I will leave you a little bit of a sunny Ireland, something that we have seen surprisingly a lot lately. Took these in Crosshaven in one of the weekends of May, the bay with the beach is the one where I took the waves photos.
Atlantic ocean waves in Crosshaven bay
I dont know if there are a lot of things in life that I love more than taking photos of the runnig water. It’s like a magnet for me, the time slows down and I can spend hours taking photos without even noticing it. When I took photos of the Torc Waterfall I spent like half an hour and my friends had to force me to return to the car.
Today we went to Crosshaven, its a small coastal town half an hour drive from Cork. It’s very beautiful there, the bay is amazing – green water, salty taste of the ocean in the air, a small beach and of course the waves. It’s possible to find a sheltered spot and spend some time there doing nothing just watching the ocean.
