Polaroid of the Week

After over six months in South East Asia, we finally made it to Angkor Wat last week. Find out what impressed us the most here at the world’s biggest religious site.

Crossing from Guatemala into Honduras, the first thing we noticed is that we had left the Mayan culture behind. Immediately gone were the colorful indigenous trajes. The Honduran women dress fairly similar to women in the U.S. or Europe. Many of the men, however, wear a stereotypical cowboy outfit – leather cowboy boots, jeans, a fancy leather belt, button down shirt and of course the indispensable cowboy hat.

I got a quick introduction to Jerusalem last week – and am already looking forward to returning next week! The sacred city has an aura like no other place in the world.

This past week has been glorious – summer has arrived early in New York City, and with temperatures averaging 85°F / 30°C every day, I’ve found it difficult to work …

This week’s Polaroid features us being goofy in front of the famous Floralis Genérica sculpture in Buenos Aires – a huge steel flower instantly recognizable as a symbol of the city.

I left New York City once again, this time for a quick getaway to New Jersey. What was supposed to be a lazy beach day turned into a sculpture overdose at Grounds For Sculpture!

It’s been nearly a full month since I arrived in New York and I hadn’t left the city ONCE! It was time for some travel – so I decided to pop over to New Jersey.

With temperatures in the high 80s it was time for a beach day! I returned to Sandy Hook for a glorious day by the ocean, only a short ferry ride from NYC.

This week’s Polaroid features San Pedro de Atacama, a picturesque little oasis in the driest and highest desert of the world: Chile’s Atacama Desert.

We rented a car this week to visit some remote places in northern Argentina’s Quebrada De Humahuaca. The highlight were the Salinas Grandes, Argentina’s salt flats.
