Waterlilies are all around Asia! They take in a sacred place here! And I can’t blame them, they are so pretty!

And this week I am guestblogging at this amazing blog; ‘The Drifter & the Gypsy‘. Micaela asked me earlier this week. Because of backpacking and lack of proper internet access I had to improvise a little but just check it out! I feel real honored she asked me!

After a week of pure tropic bounty island experience at this little paradise place called The Dolphin, we are back on track! Two days ago we arrived in Malaysie. Again totaly different and we are more then ready for some jungle adventures!

Paris is my favourite city so I love to visit it once a year! It has been a while since I stayed in this wonderfull apartment in Le Marais. I went we three of my best friends in 2007. (how time flies, amazing!) While searching for an afordable place to stay we found this little majestic spot at l’appartment Blanc.

This appartment is no longer available but there are other pretty nice ones! The interior was a great inspiration for my own place. I love the kilim cushions!

Today we crossed the border from Vietnam to Cambodia! Between all the enjoyment of traveling  I found time to write some letters to loved ones at home! It so much nicer then only by e-mail!

The ‘Q-tip’  in the picture is a special Vietnamese one made from little chicks  feathers. So soft and so much nicer to look at then to put in your ear!

The colours here are just amazing. Now in Hoi An I can’t stop getting my camera out! Hoi An is this cute little vibrant place in the middle of ricefields. In the evening all streets are filled with lantarns in all colours and there are no other streetlights, very romantic!

At this moment we are traveling Vietnam for a bit more than one week and I love this country. The peolple are so friendly, the food is amazing and the scenery faboulous. More photos and small movies you can see at www.cloudcuckoo.nl

It is time to go! We are all set and we are off! Bye Bye,…

I will try to post from Asia at least once a week. In the meanwhile I’ll keep you entertained with other ‘regular’ posts.

Check out the site regulary because I will do an Asian give-away while I am away!

And ofcourse I love to  hear from you.

We keep in touch! ♥

Our 100-day trip to Asia is getting closer and closer. By now it is time to get all our stuff together and see if everything fits in our backpacks.

Every day I am getting more excited! Our plan is to start out in Vietnam and going south visiting Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia along the way! This is the only ‘plan’ we have! When you have any tips, recommendations or suggestions, they are more then welcome!

Last october I was with friends in London! This pretty picture I shot at Brick Lane! A total buzz of creative people! I loved every detail of this small performance!

~Have a good weekend!~

Last weekend was fabulous! Everything I imagined it to be! At 0.00 the 14th with a bottle of champagne at the Eifel tower to celebrate my 30st birthday was just perfect!

* Enjoy the upcoming weekend as much as I did mine in Paris! *
