Arriving around 8pm at night, we boogied to some 80s tracks at a random happy-hour event we stumbled into before getting out of Palermo the very next day. This trip certainly wasn’t about museums, sightseeing, hitting Sicily’s famous beaches, or gluttonously gorging on pizza. It also wasn’t about getting off the “beaten path” so to say with a preplanned itinerary of activities in hand…
Gratteri, Sicily – Lola Akinmade
Currently traveling around Sicily, the Aeolian Islands, and Malta. Will be back with updates, pictures, latest news, and more the week of August 23.
I’ve started volunteering with the Swedish Red Cross as a photojournalist, and will be sharing highlights from projects and assignments once in a while.
“Where is everyone?” Inez asks the bespectacled old man standing at the makeshift entrance…
Neatly plowed green fields roll past us. I’ve always wondered what shade of green those fields are.
Returned today from Northern Sweden with my parents where we took what I’m now dubbing our “Arctic Road Trip”. Activities enjoyed included jumping at the Arctic circle, taking a moose farm detour, visiting the summer stuga (cottage), riding in a dinghy, eating surströmming, hiking, checking out Storforsen, trying all forms of lax (salmon), floating (yes!) in a Falu red cottage in the middle of a pristine lake, and lots more.
