Life Begins at 30

Such a beautiful phenomenon that I have experienced only in the Netherlands.  Again, I have to remind you I come from the tropics so this is something very bizarre to me.  Some people hate it because it is so difficult for them to sleep. But I absolutely love it. It means that I get to spend time at the beach even after work and not feel as if i’m missing out on the sunset.   It means that I get to use sunglasses after 7PM and not look like a totally fashion idiot.  It means that I get to enjoy sunshine more hours of the day…

As opposed to my previous blogs, I will let the photos do most of the talking in these last 2 installments of 2009.  I managed to gather a lot of photos and trips to different parts of Europe that words are not enough to capture the beauty of the experience.

So, let’s start off with Barcelona in July… (Don’t forget to click in the photo to view the full album!)
