We can already say it lived up to be way better than expected Met some great people, had some great experiences, (re)discovered artists, heard some [...]

Finished reading Siberian Education by Nicolai Lilin which in my opinion is a must read if you are into non-fictional books. The small republic of Transnistria, which declared its independence in 1990 but has never been recognised, is a remote part of Russia in which a community of honest criminals settled years ago. It is [...]

The Bicycle Portraits project was initiated by Stan Engelbrecht (Cape Town, South Africa) and Nic Grobler (Johannesburg, South Africa) early in 2010. Whenever they can, together or separately, they’re on the lookout for fellow commuters, and people who use bicycles as part of their everyday work, to meet and photograph. They’re finding out who rides [...]

picture by @stefanvdg aka Freaky.be Couple of months back I was pleased to annonce the birth of Apollo. Now the moment arrived that many were afraid for: Apollo is no more it seems. Shit hit the fan as the news spread about financial troubles and we only can hope they find a new partner for [...]
