  • Video from the savannah (part 2)

    These videos from the savannah are the second part and I took them in 2023 in Tanzania. The quality is not exceptional, what my means allow me, but I think they deserve it. As always, I am looking for something special and perhaps entertaining. Of those visited, the park I liked best was Ngorongoro Park,…

  • Live video from Berlin

    Here I am live from Berlin, where I came to celebrate my birthday with a quick, solo tour of two cities (the other being Dresden) that I had seen before. I had seen Berlin in 2002 on a two-week itinerant trip, again solo, but under very different conditions than today. The trip was good, but…

  • Videos from Tanzania (part 1)

    These videos from Tanzania are dated 2023 and in this article is the first part of the selection. They are not from Focus documentary since my means are meager, but I think they are interesting and cute. In particular, I always look for something special and maybe funny. In the first two lionesses looking for…

  • Climbing Stromboli, almost live video

    Going up Stromboli had been a longtime fixture of mine, so much so that I went a little crazy to do it. To go up (and down), it also takes a fairly strenuous hike. The somewhat crazy long weekend developed as follows: Friday, evening in Palermo. Saturday morning, train to Milazzo and then ferry to…

  • Alternative August bank holiday? Going to Subotica

    Once again this year I chose an alternative August bank holiday. After last year I was in the witch’s market in La Paz, this year I spent it in the little-known but very nice Subotica, in northern Serbia on the border with Hungary. It is a town with many art nouveau buildings made in the…

  • Sarajevo’s abandoned bobsled run, the video

    The abandoned bobsled track is one of Sarajevo‘s most iconic longs. I am on an 8-day tour of Bosnia and Herzegovina and also Serbia, solo and using public transportation. In Bosnia I visited Mostar and Sarajevo, very interesting cities for their Turkish and Austro-Hungarian mix. However, I must say that they are also interesting for…

  • Mostar and the bridge, live video

    I was able to visit Mostar and the bridge after a 3 1/2 hour bus ride through the spectacular mountains and forests of Bosnia – Herzegovina. As soon as I arrived, the lady who was hosting me greeted me with figs picked from a nearby tree and a big slice of super creamy cake. With…

  • Cities of the East, video from Canada

    I have arrived in the eastern cities of Canada. In particular in the last few days I have been in Toronto, in the capital Ottawa, and now I am on my way to Quebec city. This is the sixth video from Canada, always almost live. I am on an 18-day trip, solo and using public…

  • Video Niagara Falls

    Here is the Niagara Falls video, much requested by someone. It is the fifth, almost live, from my trip to Canada. It is done from the top which is also the (free) best location. I also took the ferry ride, a fun experience, but you can see very little. From there I took the selfie…

  • Coast to coast of Canada

    The coast-to-coast of Canada is one of my crazy ideas. Specifically it is a train ride from Jasper to Toronto. I did 3 out of 4 days of an ocean to ocean route. I skipped the first day (done by plane), to stay more in the Rocky Mountains, where I did beautiful wilderness walks. I…
