Early morning gives us a clear sight of Mt Kilimanjaro, while the natural hot springs are still deserted. Perfect condition for a photo shooting with Solita (instagram: @solitacruz), the queen of selfies, as she called herself. And indeed, she put herself in great poses and i just had to push the shutter. But yes, you wanna see the results now…
The idea was to travel to the Maasai village of her family to make photos in genuine Maasai dresses. Unfortunately we didn’t make it so far, but found nice location around Arusha for photo shooting…
A few years back i met that nice lady in Bangalore who invited me to her family stay. Now she’s on a trip trough Europe and i had the honor to meet her again in Zurich for one day. There was a lot to catch up, so we had coffee and chat with her friends who accompany her. Between all the luxurious shops on the famous Bahnhofstrasse we bumped in a guy offering „free hugs“. Big fun and bright smiles guaranteed.
Despite the cool temperature and overcast we had a stroll trough the inner city, seen some ancient spots and cultural highlights. The weekly flea market caught the attention of the visitors. Just before the rain started we made it back to the main train station, where the local „Oktoberfest“-party started…
Just seen in Zürich/Switzerland today.
Santa Claus is traveling fast by motorbike this year.
A fully day drove me guide Ritesh around and showed me the south of Maritius as its best. From the big temple area to wild forest, from gorges and waterfalls to beaches. With stops at rum distillery, a colorful place called „7 colored earth“ and to visit huge turtles, discover coffee beans at bushes, walking over natural bridge or seeing pyramids in sugarcane fields.
Einen vollen Tag fuhr mich mein Hotelbesitzer und Reiseführer Ritesh im Süden Mauritius herum. Angefangen bei der grossen Tempelanlage um einen See, durch urtümlichen Wald hin zu Wasserfällen, Schluchten bis zu den Stränden. Einige Stops an einer Rumfabrik, an einen Ort den sie „siebenfarbige Erde“ nennen, Besuch bei den riesigen Landschildkröten, entdecken von Kaffeebüsche mit Bohnen dran, über eine Naturbrücke am Meer gehen und Pyramiden in den Zuckerrohrfelder bestaunen.
