Vast in Delhi

Dit keer een extra lange en extra spannende blog. Ik zou zeggen pak een kopje thee en ga er lekker voor zitten!  Zoals je wellicht in mijn vorige blog heb gelezen vraagt een fiets reis om een gering aanpassingsvermogen.

Christmas thoughts from Albania

It’s Christmas that means that we stand still and think about the people we have around us, the ones we love. We dress well, prepare the Christmas tree with lights and Christmas balls, prepare the most delicious food and eat and drink as never before. Under the Christmas tree or the socks at the chimney are stuffed with presents. A family sitting at the dining table with bright shining candles…
