• The Other London

  
  I have followed my heart to the other London, In Ontario, Canada and as an outsider I will be sharing my new experiences with the London that no-one automatically thinks of when you mention the name. The one between the great lakes, south of Toronto and inhabited by students including my boyfriend, they say that first impressions last and here are mine...

• Welcome to the Circus Berlin!

  
  Boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, come closer and step into the magic wonderland of Berlin! Be prepared for a freakshow hotel, men on burning stilts, jugglers, a punk in a shopping cart, candy cotton, people dancing in a fountain, and much more as I take you along my Berlin summer full of spectacles. Join me on a journey through the Megaspree rally, the "Berlin lacht!" street theatre festival and Circus Chiarivari!

• Abandoned Pea Peeling Factory, Slowly Falling Apart

  
  In the city I work in, there is an old abandoned pea peeling factory. It used to be a place for artists and musicians to perform, but since it's falling apart, nobody is using the rooms in there anymore. I often drive by and I wanted to go in there!

• Graffitis of Tenerife

  
  Another of my little obsessions. Lomographing the art that happens on the streets of my city. Santa Cruz de Tenerife surprises whoever visits it because of one thing, just like it surprises us when we travel outside of the islands. And that's the colour of its streets.

• ★ I Am Photokina

  
  A day at the world's biggest trade fair for photography and imaging industries. This year in 2010 over 1200 photographic and imaging suppliers used the space in cologne which offered about 200.000 squaremeters to introduce new and present amazing products, both for professional and consumer imaging... One of them was the Lomographic Society International!

• A Different City, a Lomographed City in Athens

  
  Everything is different through a Lomo. In February something magical happened, something that changed my perception of things. My initiation into Lomography. And, like many of you, it was my friend's fault...

  When you find yourself in the great city of Louisiana, you can go fishing at the public wharf or take some great pictures of the sun rising out of the water. Either way, you're to have a relaxing and downright amazing afternoon on Big Lake.

• Santa Isabel Graveyard - 200 Years of Death

  
  A place full of heroin addicts, tomb raiders, pagan rites. Rumors or truth? Anyway, it's still scary to walk across that place on a foggy morning when you are a child...The graveyard of Santa Isabel is one of the most beautiful cemeteries I've ever seen.

• Fisheyed Zombies at Your Local Halloween Store

  
  Where is the best place to get halloween junk? The halloween store, of course. PIck up your lomography camera and lets go right now. I don't know if they allow cameras into the store but I brought one anyway. Usually there are so many people shopping that the managers don't even notice you.

• Ensenada, Guerrero Negro and Mulegé - Holiday trip with Handicaps

  
  In 2008 we decided to celebrate the New Year's Eve in Mulegé - a small town in Mexico, located on the Gulf of California. Some friends told us there are wonderful beaches and not too many tourists. Well, as we were located in Ensenada, Baja California, the trip down to Mulegè should take two days. It took us four.

• Holy Angel University

  
  Rule Number 1 says that you should bring your camera wherever you go. Five days a week I go to school and I surely bring my LOMO LC-A+ with me every day. We attend classes together, study, take exams and whistle at the beautiful girls in school uniforms! (I don't do this much, I'm quite shy. the LC-A+ on the other hand...)

• Jerome: Ruins of the Wild West

  
  Jerome, Arizona: built into the sides of a mountain, a city that sits in tiers and overlooks the Arizona desert. People have come and gone in waves, leaving behind them mere remnants of a once wild city. Buildings endure, sometimes with as few as one or two walls intact.

• Is wrestling fixed? or Training at the Wrestling School Austria

  
  What better place to start a bachelor party than the Wrestling School Austria? You might already have compiled a list of way better options but what if the groom himself is a wrestling fan and you can book a training session with the famous Austrian wrestler Humungus?

• Travel Diary – Zinguinchor – First stop of our Senegal adventure

  
  Once you visit Africa you know you have to go back there again. Such a huge continent must be visited more than once to have an idea of all the traditions, tribes, wildlife…Maybe it’s because of the wildlife, or the landscapes or the ancestral traditions but I fell in love last year, and this love is forever. Welcome to the start of my adventure in Senegal.

• Grand Canyon National Park (Grand Canyon, Arizona)

  
  One of the 7 natural wonders of the world, the Grand Canyon is a location that you must visit. As part of our roadtrip through Southern California, Nevada, and Arizona, one of our major stops was the Grand Canyon. This was my second trip to the great landmark (my first was as a kid). The first time I visited as a child I did not appreciate what I was seeing.
