In old city Istanbul, the neighborhood of Fatih on a summer night.

There's Nothing More, There's Nothing Less, just SKIATHOS!

This is a kind of dream about London, with some celebrities such as Sir Winston Churchill, Henry the VIII (and wifes), Virginia Woolf, Agatha Christie, Bridget Jones... etc. Take the time to find someone else!

The east side of Amsterdam's harbour, behind the Central Station, has become THE place to be, with cafe's, restaurants & clubs suddenly appearing all over the place. Many tourists will not know all these places. Included in the map are all the addresses! Although most places are to be found on the internet - now you can jump in a taxi with the address and go have fun!!

From the palace the streets go out like rays through the houses and the huge forest- that is why Karlsruhe is also called "the fan city". The sights are from 18th century onwards. It's a little piece of heaven where you can be in touch with nature, feel like royalty in the royal garden, and still be in a very contemporary city.

I love Crete the largest of the Greek island, the people and warm, welcoming and generous.

Some of my favorites places to do, to see and to taste. Start at the windmills in Zuid Holland (since 1740), Tulips (since 1593), Lakenvelder cow (since 12th century), and go on until you end at the ice cream store Talimini in Zutphen (now).

My family & I have been going to North Devon on holiday for several years. I love the atmosphere, I love the people, I love the place. There is something for everyone in Devon but we mostly eat, drink, surf & shop... & shelter from the rain!!

I have travelled extensively in Italy during my one year stay as a grad student in design in Florence. I am back to India now but ever since i have been in love with Florence. The map of Florence is etched emotionally on my heart and mind. This is my tribute to this place which welcomed me so warmly and made me the person I am today. I will keep going back to this place throughout my life. Thank you for giving me this opportunity for paying my tribute.

All done with Stabilo pens at the finished scale. Took some time... :-)

Starting with lunch at the "Tempelier" (a beautiful little Belgian pub), finishing with "am Staden" - a little place in the sun.

Zutphen is an old Hanseatic town with lot of history. Every building has it own story!

These are definitely the most obvious places to see when visiting Rome, but their beauty is incredible and I thought it was worth a reminder ;-)
