Book Review: Hello Sandwich Tokyo Guide
When we traveled to Japan last year our first stop was Tokyo. Since we were dreaming about visiting Japan for years, we were so exited and started to search for good travel recommendation or guide books. We stumbled over a recommendation for the little self-made “Tokyo Guide” by Hello Sandwich somewhere online rather accidentally. Of course we ordered the little book right away. And we really loved it — it gave us so many ideas […]

People in motion in the tube in Singapore
The tube in Singapore transports ca. 744 million passengers per year. That is about 2 million per day. I like sitting in the tube stations with my camera and watch the people walking in and out the trains, up and down with the escalators, pushing a pram, running to catch a train, pulling luggages and shopping bags.

I saw the poster of the movie in the London underground last December. Robert Redford battling rough sea and bad weather on a sailing boat. I thought that it may be one of those end of career […]
Quanti abitanti ha Jakarta?
Quanti abitanti ha Jakarta? C’è chi dice 10.000.000, forse 12.000.000. Altri dicono che se si considera la periferia che si estende a ovest, sud e ad est si arriva a 25.000.000. Ogni weekend 4 o 5.000.000 di abitanti lasciano la città per il weekend e raggiungono le zone di collina, dove la temperatura è un po’ più mite. La verità è che nessuno sa quante persone abitano qui. Molti arrivano ogni anno per trovare un […]
