Marcel Burger - Third time's the charm

View over Kraków on a fresh January day

I have been taking photos ever since my uncle and aunt inspired me to buy my first DSL at the age of 16. I was born in Holland, moved to the eastern part of the Netherlands, immigrated to Sweden. Here I wrote a travel guide book as thick as a brick about my new home country, was a news and radio correspondent and was a teacher in Swedish schools. 15 years after settling in the land of the Vikings, I popped over to the southern side of the Baltic Sea, and found my third home in Kraków, Poland. The third time's the charm.

Summer has been busy with loads of stuff, but I finally got back into publishing stories again. With the first Autumn post being the impressive salt mine of Wieliczka, Poland.
