Each summer I find myself chasing the sun, either on some picturesque Mediterranean island or sailing along a breath-taking coastline idling my days away.

While my blog captures my intense love affair with all things travel related. It is in my photographs that I'm able to express and share the passion and beauty of the destinations I visit.
