• Florida Norte

      I came across this sign while shooting in Madrid. The sign is in the background of the first photo “Florida Norte”. I was tempted to photo shop it out because it’s not all that visually pleasing but I think it’s allegorical (and north is definitely better than things going south haha). Miami I’m coming for […]

  • Alicante, Spain

    We just went to Alicante for a few days. For the three day weekend my friend and I decided to get out of Madrid. Madrid is wonderful but it’s great to see other parts of the Spanish country. There are so many beautiful regions of Spain, and they all vary so greatly. I’d like to […]

  • Chefchaouen, Fes, & Spaces in Between, Morocco

    Interest in Morocco Semana Santa in Spain is the equivalent to spring break in the United States. I had over a week free and decided to fulfill one of my dream trips of traveling to Morocco. I’d wanted to visit this country for a long time. My interest was sparked the first time I came to […]

  • Judith Rouillard Urruchi

    It interests and impresses me how international one person can be. Judith is from Mauritius Island off of the East coast of Africa and is now living in Madrid. She speaks English, Spanish, and French. She has a sister in Berlin, Germany and family all over the world. I had a wonderful time photographing and getting […]

  • Valencia, Spain

    In the last week of March I traveled to Valencia, Spain for Las Fallas. It is a spring celebration in the beautiful sea side city. Sculptures (often satirical) are constructed from wood and paper mache throughout the year. They’re then erected on street intersections and plazas all throughout the city. The week long festival is […]

  • Figueres & Barcelona, Spain

    I traveled to Barcelona last weekend for a little escape from Madrid. I left Thursday afternoon and returned Sunday. On Friday I took the train with two friends to Figueres to visit the Salvador Dalí museum. We enjoyed a wonderful morning walking through and viewing his paintings, drawings, sculptures, and exquisite jewelry collection. I feel so […]

  • Berlin, Germany

    We took a train from Venice to Berlin just in time for New Years. We went to the Brandenburg Gate for the celebration. The streets were filled with people, and fireworks were exploding from every angle. The next couple days we explored the city a bit, seeing part of the Berlin Wall. Until I saw […]

  • Milan & Venice, Italy

    Flying into Milan was one of the most spectacular scenes I’ve witnessed from an airplane. The Alps were clearly visible for miles. We were lucky to fly on such a clear day. We landed and gathered ourselves, to take the bus into the city. The day was clear and sunny and then the weather took […]

  • Budapest, Hungary

    All I could think of in relation to Budapest before arriving to the city was the film, “The Grand Budapest Hotel” directed by Wes Anderson, whose films I revere for their character complexity and eccentricities. But, alas Budapest was nothing like his film. Though the trip to Budapest was short and sweet, the city exceeded my expectations. […]

  • Warsaw & Oświęcim, Poland

    Warsaw We landed in Warsaw, Poland and took a train the next day to Oświęcim where we went to take a day tour of Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp. This is a place I had learned about for many years through heart breaking books, movies, museums, and accounts of the Holocaust. History For some time I have had […]
