Things to do in Amsterdam

Image
 Amsterdam Every year, to celebrate my birthday, I travel somewhere, in 2019 I went to Morocco , in 2020 to Israel and this year (2022) I decided to visit Amsterdam. It was a long time since I wanted to visit this city and there I have a friend that I wanted to see, so with these three points combined, I decided to visit Amsterdam in winter. I spent five days in Amsterdam and I visited the city plus some places outside like Zaanse Schans, Zandvoort and Haarlem. One important thing is that I forgot my camera so all the pictures were taken with my phone, maybe the quality is not high but I think they are anyway beautiful.

Abandoned sanatorium in Tskaltubo Georgia

Image
Tskaltubo As a photographer, I have an urban photography project, I visit abandoned places and shoot with a model. I do it in Budapest , where I live, and if possible, while I am travelling, for example, in Kyrgyzstan, where I lived for two months . I want to say that it's illegal and hazardous to enter abandoned buildings/places, so please don't take this post as an invitation to do the same. During my trip to Georgia, you can read about it here and here , on the last day I visited the city of Tskaltubo. It is close to Kutaisi and reachable in 20 minutes by taxi and marshrutka. Because it was a last-minute decision, I visited the place alone, so no portraits. Tskaltubo is a spa resort in west Georgia, it is known for its radon carbonate mineral springs, whose natural temperature of 33-35 °C (91-95 °F) enables the water to be used without preliminary heating. The first bathhouses were built as early as the 1870s. Tskaltubo was especially popular in the Soviet era, attracting a...
