was walking the pilgrim trail towards Santiago de Compostela in Spain. She is Peruvian and 87 years has passed since she was born. We met her, half running and in good spirits with her daughter and grand-daughter some 110 kilometers before Santiago. I´d like to be in that shape when I reach that age.

“It´s my daughter”
In the island of La Digue in the Seychelles, a woman dressed in the local tourist-company uniform started to chat with me at the guesthouse where I stayed.
She was a likeable person and I recalled having taken a picture of a younger woman (see above) with the same uniform as the one she had, which I told her.. Let me see it she said. I showed it to her and her instant comment was “it´s my daughter”.
Cuddle me eyes..
This cutie is the chairman of the local flea market in Alto do Poio, Galicia. Staying for a rest and a beer we enjoyed the company of the lovesick puppy for a while.
It seemed a bit itchy though?? Buen camino woff woff..
The end of the world
Those who have wandered the 800 kilometers from France to Santiago de Compostela can keep on walking a few days extra, but no more than 100km.
This is where the world ends. Finito Finisterre!

Put on your walking shoes!
This is Katja exploring the mountain regions of Dominican Republic. Jarabacoa to be more precise.
According to rumours she is right now doing another trail on a different continent!
Whale shark habitat!
The season for watching Whale Sharks in the Seychelles is from August to the end of October with some variations.. If you go another period of the year there are other interesting stuff to see as well. I promise!
A dip at Vinga!
Klas took me along for a trip to Vinga in his boat earlier today. It´s a classic spot in the Gothenburg archipelago! In summertime when the weather is nice, Sweden is hard to beat.

Albania a land of contrast!
One of the poorest countrys in Europe but I estimate that at least 50% of the cars are Mercedes Benz!
