Hiking through clouds and raindrops on Senja Island


Senja Island lies in northwestern Norway, north of the Arctic Circle. On clear days, you can admire dramatic views of towering peaks rising above the fjords and lush green landscapes. During our short visit, however, we only had a few hours of clear weather. Low clouds and drizzle hid the scenery and disappointed me. Still, in July-August 2026, I met wonderful people, enjoyed handfuls of juicy blueberries, relaxed in a hot sauna, and was delighted whenever a ray of sunshine broke through the clouds.

El Camino
de Costa Rica


I set out to cross Costa Rica on foot – 266 km from the Caribbean Sea on the Atlantic coast to the Pacific Ocean. We walked the trek for 16 days, accompanied by the sounds of nature, during which we got to know the local culture, agriculture, and people. Every day we were washed by rain, which ensured the green, rich, and lush tropical landscape. I crossed Costa Rica in February 2026.

Vodou, The West African Spiritual Tradition


I traveled to West Africa to get to know the religion of Vodou (Vodun). We participated in ecstatic ceremonies, accompanied by rhythmic music, wild dancing, singing, and offering sacrifices. We watched spirits that have entered in believers who were clothed with colorful robes, directing their movements and speaking from their throats, connecting the visible world to the invisible. I visited Ghana, Togo, and Benin in December 2025 and January 2026.
