The skyline of Kraków on a scrisp January afternoon

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. 
In July, I visited Iceland. For a long time high on my wishlist, the country has blown me away. Together with my love, I navigated 3,200 kilometres (1,988 miles) across the main island by car, hiked up and down into gorgeous landscapes, beheld some wildlife, and enjoyed a few settlements including Reykjavik. The first seven of my Iceland stories series are live: with the first part of the Southern Lands (Suðurland) as my latest edition.

Eastern Suðurland
10 August 2025 • Eastern Suðurland is basically one municipality: Sveitarfélagið Hornafjörður, or often simply called Hornafjörður. Here, one has the easiest access to Europe's biggest glacier outside Russia, find pointy mountains with beautiful reflections and can take the little less touristic hike into a gorgeous canyon.
Eastfjords & Austurland
6 August 2025 • The mountains of the Eastfjords are more pointy, the roads can be an adventure and the Eastfjords and its Austurland region have a lot of gems to discover. I've only "touched" part of the landscape here. But I would love to go back to see more, any time.
Norðurland
* NEW PHOTOS 3 AUGUST. First publication 1 August 2025 • The north of Iceland is a joy to drive through. The landscape is varying. From green covered hills to a Mars-like landscape in a giant active volcano. It has a very cute town - Húsavík, Europe's most powerful waterfall and so many more highlights for those who wish to see them and has time on their hands.
