The other Rome

June 1, 2018 by nadel&gabel

If you follow me on Instagram you already know about my short trip to Rome, not a leisure trip but a studies excursion with students focusing on art and history. If you’ve been to Rome before or even if you haven’t been you probably know that attractions in Rome are basically endless. There are so many “must see’s” that you can easily feel overwhelmed… the masses of tourists do their part as well. Here is a short overview to some […]

Eastward II – Spreewald and Weimar

September 16, 2017 by nadel&gabel

There it is: an isolated wooden house painted red, in the garden chard, tomatoes and thyme are growing besides flowers, happy sheep are jumping around in their enclosure while the chicken doesn’t let disturb herself in her picking routine. The evening sun brings the adjoining field to glow  .. and bsssh … a mosquito’s bite again. And in the sun room of the little, cozy furnished cabin lightened by a chain of lights  we sit in this Bullerbü-like scene, sip […]

São Miguel II: In the wilderness – The East Coast

June 6, 2017 by nadel&gabel

Deep valleys, lush tropical forests, steep cliffs, small roads – The East of São Miguel is the least developed and least populated part of the island. But before you head East it’s worth to make a stop in Ribeira Grande, especially to visit the contemporary arts centre Arquipélago. Not only the exhibitions but also the site – old buildings from a former tobacco and alcohol factory combined with new modern constructions create a fascinating complex – is worth a visit. […]

São Miguel I: Ponta Delgada – Point of intersection

June 6, 2017 by nadel&gabel

After the last busy weeks that followed our trip to São Miguel I found some time to go through and edit my photos. So, finally I can give you some impressions of this beautiful island in the middle of the Atlantic. I fully realized that we were approaching a tiny archipelago in the middle of nowhere on our flight to the Azores when we mostly saw … water. Flying along São Miguel’s south coast, then landing on the small airport […]

Mind the fietsers – A city trip to Amsterdam

April 13, 2015 by nadel&gabel

It’s only a few days ago, that we came back from our little spring timeout in Amsterdam. A pleasant spring weather made it easy for us to discover and enjoy this city which is bustling and relaxed at the same time. Sometimes I find taking photographs a difficult thing to balance, especially when travelling. I want to keep memorys, impressions, but at the same time I see the risk to miss out on the experience while concentrating on taking pictures. […]

Turné i södra Sverige III – Sea, islands and wind

September 16, 2014 by nadel&gabel

This was the view that welcomed us in Skärhamn – a view that I just couldn’t get enough of. So, before the daily routine has absorbed me again, here finally is the last part of my summer travel retrospective. Additionally I’ve dedicated a pinterest board to our travelling through Sweden with our favourite places to stay, eat, visit plus some other inspiration. For our stay at the west coast of Sweden we had rented one of the studios of the […]

Turné i södra Sverige I – Swedish city life in Stockholm and Uppsala

August 30, 2014 by nadel&gabel

After some silence that moved into this place during the last weeks, I am back again … with some (first) pictures from our “turné i södra Sverige” (tour in South Sweden). Our trip started and ended in a city – starting point was Stockholm, final destination Uppsala … this blog post is dedicated to these two swedish cities. (Although we’ve been to the west coast as well we skipped Gothenburg, but I am sure this city is worth a visit, […]

Into the light – Côte d’Azur

May 23, 2013 by nadel&gabel

There’s much sayed about the clear and soft light at the Côte d’Azur that makes the colours pop – believe everything you’ve heard, it is perfect right! There is a reason that this coast is called the “blue coast” – the blue of the sea that ranges from dark blue to bright turquoise is stunning and is topped by a (most times) bright blue sky. The vibrant blue colours are contrasted by the warm terracotta colours of the houses as […]

…and even more Bauhaus

April 1, 2013 by nadel&gabel

After years of planing to do this, we finally visited the Weissenhofsiedlung and museum in Stuttgart this Easter weekend. Definitely worth a visit! It was developed as a showcase of a “new living” (Neues Wohnen) in the 1920s by the “Deutscher Werkbund” (remember the similar project of the Austrian “Werkbund”?) and the city of Stuttgart. The initiative came from no other than Ludwig Mies van der Rohe – yes, the one who designed the German pavillon on the 1929 World […]
