by Paul / November 8, 2015March 13, 2018

The first thing I noticed about Taiwanese traffic is that it’s tame. People follow the rules, stay between the lines, and pay attention to the…

  • #Paris during our last trip. This city is pure magic, and looking better and better while we’re digging out of an ice storm here in Toronto.

  • One more from our last #novascotia trip. It was a tough day - howling winds, rain, cold - but absolutely killer clouds and sun for #photography. Sometimes bad weather isn’t the worst thing that can happen. :)

  • #tbt to one of my favourite spots for exploring, #hiking, and #photography - #watkinsglen in the #fingerlakes region of #newyork. Gorgeous spot, can’t wait to return - maybe for #tbex this fall.

  • Met this tough #pipe #smoking local in the hills outside #chiangrai on my last trip. Heading back to northern #Thailand again soon - can’t wait!

  • Guedelon Castle in the #Burgundy region of #France (an easy day trip from #Paris). This is a working site where master builders are building a 13th century-style #castle from scratch, using only materials and techniques that were available in the #middleages. They began working on it in 1997 and likely won’t be done for almost a decade - this place is amazing.

  • Southern #Iceland near #Seljalandfoss. For all those on #househunters who don’t want to have to look at their neighbours, maybe this is the #house for them. :) Love the clean lines and mood of this image, but most of all loved exploring this gorgeous country.

  • Congrats to the #philadelphiaeagles on a huge #superbowl win last night! I loved exploring #philadelphia recently - the people were friendly, the #food amazing, and the city has a very cool vibe and history that will keep me coming back. This image, #sunset 🌅 over the city, was taken from the rooftop patio at our Airbnb. #beautiful

  • The White Temple in #chiangrai, northern #Thailand. What a fantastic place this is, but it can be busy. There were thousands of people there that day - I had to wait ages to get this image without hordes of visitors walking past. It’s okay...not a bad place to spend my time. This temple is gorgeous and the grounds are quirky with hanging gargoyle heads from the trees and all kinds of artistic weirdness. My kind of place. :) Heading back to Thailand 🇹🇭 this year and can’t wait!

  • I guess this wickedly cold #winter here in #Canada has an upside - I’ve been super productive in my office, updating two of my websites, finished some writing and picked up a new contract over the break, so I’m not complaining. :) Not to mention that ice and snow make for some awesome landscapes.
