Ski. Photo by Boris Veldhuijzen van Zanten. Tomorrow night (friday morning actually) I’m leaving for Meribel Mottaret in the French Alps. It is located in Le Trois Vallees and I’m staying there for a week. I have been looking forward to this trip for months now, checking the weather forecasts and Webcams of the area on a daily [...]

It is true. Today I switched off my BlackBerry Pearl and re-activated my old and trusted 8700. The Pearl is much lighter and better looking but I just couldn’t really get used to the awkward keyboard. As soon as Vodafone upgrades their software so I can actually photoblog with the Pearl I will switch back [...]
