Admired the Skopje fortress Kale on Sunday 8th April 2018. Located in the old town of Skopje, the capital of the Republic of Macedonia. Built on the highest point overlooking the city and Vardar River. Got a fantastic view of the snowcapped montains and the Millennium Cross.

Dived into Marrakesh's historical side experiencing some of the city's most significant historical sites: mosques, palaces and tombs such as Koutoubia Mosque & Minaret, El Bahia Palace with 2 acres of gardens, and Saadian Tombs & Tiskiwin House filled with art. The minaret is a prominent feature in the Marrakesh skyline and can be seen from across the city. This beautifully crafted mosque is a must-see attraction in Morocco.

Ohrid is the city where you can take a real spirituality journey, or just admire the architecture of the all the amazing churches. The city is often called " Balkan Pearl" or "Jerusalem of the Balkans". It had once 365 churches, one for each day of the year. Ohrid has still many churches, and the most impressing of them all is St. John Kaneo Church.

Searched for long forgotten souls in Zagreb, Croatia, on Friday the 13th October 2017. Ventured a step into the spiritual world where ghosts live. Walked around at graveyards and other haunted places: heard amazing stories about spirits, curses, witches, secret societies and even dragons. What is hiding in the darkness here?

Enjoyed cottage life in Taivalkoski, in northern Finland. The cottage is an institution in the country. In the holiday seasons, Finns flock to the countryside for quietness and relaxation at cosy hideouts. At a cottage situated by a lake deep in the forest, I took my time to enjoy the midnight sun, silence, sauna, swimming and fishing - just as the Finns use to do.

What are we going to do? The lions emerged from everywhere, and we where stuck in the middle, literally told. Suddenly we heard a scream from the tent next to us. We didn't see anything, but we feared the worst.
