Reached the top of Trebević Mountain in Sarajevo in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Stood beside the faded Olympic rings thinking of the past. I was hit by a strong contrast - nature’s beauty wrapped around the scars of war that erupted afterwards. 

On a tiny island in the heart of the Pacific, I found a whole world wrapped in turquoise water, white sand, and smiling faces. Fiji lies in the south Pacific Ocean, and of all the 300 islands there, I ended up at Beachcomber Island in 1987 - small enough to walk around in 15 minutes. Palms danced in the breeze, coral reefs sparkled beneath the surface, and every moment was touched by the gentle spirit of Fiji. But nothing captured that spirit more than a simple drink — kava.

Amid the heart of Istanbul, the Blue Mosque - Sultan Ahmed Mosque -stands timeless. This feels like something out of a fairytale graceful, grand, and timeless. Every curve and minaret tell a story, echoing the beauty and soul of old Istanbul.

While driving the stunning Garden Route in 1995, I never expected to end up on the back of a giant bird - but that’s exactly what happened in Oudtshoorn, the ostrich capital of the world. 

In the heart of Kruger National Park in South Africa, where the sunrise paints the savannah gold and sharp green  the bush, lives the “King of the Jungle: the lion. My friend and me had stepped out of the human world, and into his. Suddenly a massive male lion, alone, emerged on our way ….

My hang gliding experience in Rio de Janeiro started at Pedra Bonita, a mountain rising into the São Conrado neighbourhood - only about 20 minutes from Ipanema. Surrounded by lush jungle and sweeping views of the ocean, it was the perfect launch point for something this wild. 

Out on the wide savannah of Tanzania, an elephant crosses my path - huge, calm, unstoppable. He doesn’t rush. He doesn’t fear. He simply moves forward, knowing the land belongs to him. 

I am still trying to get into this album – just few weeks before I am entering the concert “Queen Extravaganza - Celebrating 50 years of Bohemian Rhapsody”, at Rockefeller in Oslo, Norway, 7th April 2025. What is the album really about?

About 90 km northwest of the bustling streets of Ho Chi Minh City, nestled in the heart of Tay Ninh, stands one of Vietnam’s most captivated spiritual landmarks - the Cao Dai Temple. There I observed hundreds of worshipers conducted strange rituals – without having a clue of what was going on. 

In a groundbreaking discovery near Petra’s amazing monument Khazneh, also known as Treasury, archaeologists unearthed in October previous year (2024) a hidden a tomb containing 12 human skeletons and ancient artifacts, believed to be over 2,000 years old.
