Tranquil Antwerp

Cranes in the Antwerp docklands I nearly got my head kicked in taking pictures this weekend in Antwerp. I escaped with a few bruises, mainly to my ego. I don't want to go into the whole sordid tale, but the moral of the story is: ask people's permission before you take ...

Morning, beautiful

Morning, beautiful, originally uploaded by Caroline. Although my hotel on Osborne Street in London gets bad reviews on travel sites, I didn't have a problem with it at all. Yes it's a little run down and I'm sure some people may not find the area attractive. But I like Brick Lane ...

On turning 45

I'm treating myself to a trip to Cologne this weekend. I aim to do very little. Perhaps swim in the hotel pool and sit and enjoy the atmosphere at Max Stark's. They serve a black pudding dish (Himmel un Ääd mit Flönz) I want to try. Last week I ...

Please buy my lovely Crumpler

All the items I put up for auction a while back were sold. So here's another thing that needs a good home. It's my gorgeous black/grey Crumpler Stripper Ripper, a photo and laptop bag. It fits a 17" laptop, 1 camera body, up to 4 lenses, cables and accessories or ...

Where to go when you don’t know… Gent

I used to have a handful of Belgian readers. Wonder if they're still around.Next week I'll be travelling to Gent (Ghent? I never know whether or not to slot an 'h' in in English) for a two-day stay (we'll be going to this event, do come too if you like ...

Not quite the DOPPLR effect

I joined Dopplr today. It's a place to share your trips and travels with friends... ... just having started a new job, I'm not going to be doing a lot of travelling any time soon. So I'll be gnashing my teeth watching other people's journeys.Lemme know if you want in.

Faux filet

As seen in a narrow street on the edge of Vieux Nice, near Promenade des Anglaises. I went through my holiday pictures again and added a bunch to the set at Flickr. Watch the slideshow.

La Marseillaise

I haven't said much about my trip to the South of France. Not like three years ago when I kept a diary during the holiday and posted it when I got back. I tried to do that again, but my notebook has exactly one page filled. Russian Orthodox Cathedral, NiceIf ...

Life and how to live it

It struck me just now that I am more active during my holidays than I am at home. I've been back since Tuesday afternoon and have done sweet f.a. since. Hanging out online all day, twittering, editing a few pictures, chatting to a friend, eating and going to bed very, ...

Closed for summer break

Am away till September 4, but I might send some pictures to my Flickr account and will probably Twitter too. Or maybe you'll spot me on one of the Nice webcams. While I'm gone, here's something to keep you occupied: on the 28th (that's Tuesday) you should be able to download a ...

Proudly presenting zie.nl

Zie.nl, the new Dutch video sharing site that I (and our team) have been working on for the last 4 months has just gone live. We had cake to celebrate. www.zie.nl Yes, we realise it's teal. No, we're not that keen on it either. Yes, we'll work on it.
