#goodbye from #curacao with a #portrait of one of the most common #raptors on the #island: the #warawara which is hunting for reptiles and smaller animals, preferably on the ground. You meet this bird almost everywhere on the island, quite some times even on the road where it is about to „clean up“ the #roadkills.

Alright, now it’s getting really #colorful! #willemstad not only is one of the most colourful #capitalcities I have seen so far. It is also very open minded in terms of different #cultures and even sexual orientations. All houses are painted in different #colors since 150 years already which makes the city almost as colourful as the #coralreefs of #curacao. Together with the #dutch #colonialarchitecture it makes it so unique that the #historic #citycentre is nowadays part of the #unescoworldheritage.

Some #historylesson today! #curacao has quite a dark #past referring to its #colonialtimes. What nowadays looks like a #ghosthouse and enthrones over the sea was once a very sad place (picture no. 1): the #quarantainehouse of Curaçao where all African slaves that arrived here after 10 weeks of travelling on the sea had to stay for a certain time. 300 years ago #slavetrade was the main business on Curaçao.

On picture no. 2 you can see #fortbeekenburg which is still one of the biggest and best preserved forts in the #caribbean. To protect Curaçao as an important location for trading slaves but even more important to hide and repair fleets of war ships, this fort was built 1703 overlooking the entrance to the #spaansewater. On the same picture you can see how Spaansewater is used today: it is an extremely luxury neighbourhood where celebrities own their beach houses including their private yacht berth.

#rainyseason in the #dutchcaribbean can mean one day with a lot of rain which then doesn’t seep into the ground that is to dry to take up the water. We experienced this during our #outback trip on #curacao - #stuckinthemiddleofnowhere 🤷🏼‍♂️

It’s amazing how many #differentfaces this #island has! 🙂

Today I #spotted many animals the first time in #wildlife on #curacao. One of them were #flamingos - what an amazing feeling to watch these very special birds in their #natural habitat! Hopefully I can share more impressions with you during the next days. It feels so nice to get into travelling again after all these Covid months.

Our #moon. It just looks #magic when he rises and appears close to the #horizon. Staring at him and taking pictures of him is just a fantastic way of spending time. I have taken the first pictures of the moon with my #telelens almost 15 years ago. This one I took a week ago when the moon was just about to rise and it looked gigantic! :-)

#Believeitornot: I recently #spotted this #elve in a #forest close by. Never before I have #witnessed an elve living in a forest. After all the #fairytales one tells about them it was however not too hard to recognise this #tinybeauty.

I wish that all of you may be so lucky to find your own elves in forests that you #lovetoexplore! Sometimes you just need to #getcloser! 🔎 👀 🍀 Have a wonderful 2021 everyone! 🤗

Yesterday I watched the #afghanistan #documentary

Yesterday I watched the #afghanistan #documentary of @samuel.haede which was really impressing, showing this country from a very different perspective. The pictures he shows from the Afghan #highlands in #centralasia made me think of my trip to #xinjiang again and I just digged out a couple of pictures for you. I begin to really #misstraveling these days. #china is such a #blast to travel! This trip was maybe the best in my life and all experiences we made were so unique that even today it feels like a different world when I remember back this trip in #2013.

This place is really #magic! 😍 When I explored

This place is really #magic! 😍 When I explored #silesia this #summer, I passed by this gigantic #monestary of #lubiąż close to #wroclaw in #poland. It is the second biggest monestary in whole #europe after #escorial in #Spain.

Since 1810 all monks have finally left this site but it has a dynamic and #tragic history ever since. This place has touched my soul more than most other touristic places I have seen in Poland and it is my personal #numberone #recommendation if you want to explore a #lostplace with lots of #history in Poland.

Impressions of beautiful #wroclaw in #silesia, #poland. This city #flourishes! 💐 😊 When I came here last time almost 9 years ago the #city didn’t feel as wealthy and relaxed as it does today. The whole #waterfront is renewed and one can enjoy the views on the #riveroder in one of the many beach bars. Also #fromabove this development is noticeable (see the first picture of the #wroclawcathedral and the nicely renovated #buildings all around). In the second picture you can see the #unescoworldheritage #centennialhall which is integrated in a nice park with #fountains and #nature all around.

This #castle reminded me of #Scotland and it #scottishcastles somehow. But even though the #landscape is similar to the north, the castle is located in the south of #poland, close to the border to #slovakia. And I was lucky to bring my #djispark and have a look at the #scenery #fromabove 🚁 😊

#kaliningrad is a place full of #history. Basicall

#kaliningrad is a place full of #history. Basically today the city looks completely different to the one it was before #WW2. The old city center around the #kaliningradcathedral (#koenigsbergerdom) and the former #koenigsbergcastle (#koenigsbergerschloss) was completely transformed into a #modern example of #sovietarchitecture including the #monument that you can see on this picture. BTW: #ww2monuments like this you can find in almost every village around the whole #oblastkaliningrad and they are well taken care of, in contrast to most other buildings.

Greetings from #kaliningrad! 🙂 My first visit to

Greetings from #kaliningrad! 🙂 My first visit to #realrussia already wants me to #exploremore of this #exciting country. My personal favourite today was the #houseofsoviets which you can see on the pictures that I took with my #djispark #fromabove.
The #Russians started to build this #massive example of #brutalism in #1967 on ground of the former #kaliningradcastle, which they blasted away before. During the 1970s the ground finally appeared to be too unstable for this building so that it was never finished in the end and nobody ever moved in. Do you see the parallels to the #SovietUnion?

This place is not just #stunning beautiful. It is #magic to me. It means a lot to me, since my grandfather - whom I never met - got baptised in here many decades ago.
A Church in #Zeliszow, #Poland, with great #history was brought back to life by a couple of volunteers and a lot of public money. However I love both versions of this #church: the #ruined one which I have taken in December 2011 and the #renovated one which I took today, in October 2019. —

#Svalbard is a perfect place for spotting #arcticb

#Svalbard is a perfect place for spotting #arcticbirds! 🐦 During our stay up here, we were able to spot quite some of them. And a couple of those were even posing in front of my camera, which I would like to introduce to you in this post 😊
—
*bird no. 1*
The #barnaclegoose (German: #Nonnengans or #weißwangengans) can be spottet a lot in lakes and along the shores of #Longyearbyen. It nests up here during summer and will go south during winter.
—
*bird no. 2*
The Atlantic #puffin (German: #papageientaucher) can be spottet here in really huge numbers, at least we saw dozens of them during our cruises around #isfjorden. I haven’t seen so many of this special kind anywhere else so far - it is just wonderful to watch these little guys diving and swimming around.
—
*bird no. 3*
The ptarmigan (German: #schneehuhn) is the only endemic Svalbard bird. It constantly lives on Svalbard all year round without migrating. It is also allowed for hunting during specific seasons.
—
*bird no. 4*
The #northernfulmar (German: nordatlantischer #Eissturmvogel) looks like a seagull but isn’t one. It appears either in grey or white feathers, on Svalbard you mainly see the grey ones.
—
*bird no. 5*
The #redthroateddiver (German: #Sterntaucher) will develop a red throat once adult. The one shown on the picture is a juvenile duck that we spotted in the #adventfjord.
—
*bird no. 6*
The #purplesandpiper (German: #meerstrandläufer) nests in the #artic but migrates to - for instance - the German coast during winter times.

60% of #Svalbard is covered by #ice and #glaciers.

60% of #Svalbard is covered by #ice and #glaciers. So there are plenty of chances to enjoy this beautiful perspective of nature if you visit this magic place 😊 Many of the glaciers calve directly into the sea and produce little or even bigger icebergs that afterwards float around in the #fjords of Svalbard.

We were #lucky enough to observe #belugas diving right in front of a glacier and also a #waterfall that was running out of the ice. #natureiswonderful 🙌🏼
