Jökulsárlón Ice cave
Posted on 19/2/25
An early morning trip to visit the crystal blue ice formations and glacier lagoon in the Vatnajökull National Park rewarded me with some interesting images both with texture and colours. The caves change each year with some larger and deeper into the glacier than others and some dark and narrow. The one this year was not as large as some I have been in but the colours within the walls of ice covered most of the blue shades I have seen. I great experience once again.

Bhutan - Day 13 - Haa Festival - Sacred Dances in the Rain
The journey from Paro to Haa Valley proved to be one of our most dramatic drives yet. Climbing to 3,998 meters at the Chele La Pass, we crossed into a different world before descending for 1.5 hours into the remote Haa Valley. The landscape unfolded beneath us, watched over by the imposing Meri Puensum—three sacred hills that dominate every view in the valley.

Day 12: The Tiger's Nest – A Pilgrimage to Bhutan's Most Sacred Site
The alarm went off early today, but there was no reluctance in getting up. This was the day I'd been anticipating since we first started planning this trip: the hike to Paro Taktsang, the Tiger's Nest Monastery, Bhutan's most iconic landmark and one of its most sacred Buddhist sites.

Day 11: Thimphu to Paro – Phalluses, Music, and Mountain Valleys
We left Thimphu after a fascinating morning visit to the National Institute for Zorig Chusum, where Bhutan's traditional arts are kept vibrantly alive. We watched weavers create intricate kiras at wooden looms, painters meticulously applying gold leaf to thangkas, and artisans crafting handmade paper from the bark of daphne trees using centuries-old techniques.
