New York Times Travel

​​​​​​​​From its modest Celtic and Roman origins, Budapest has grown into a beautiful Old World metropolis, thanks to its enviable location on the Danube River and a dynamic local population, which currently hovers around 1.7 million. The extremely walkable Hungarian capital is a vibrant, progressive and relatively diverse island in an otherwise rightward-tilting country, making it a popular destination for gourmets, designers, writers and artists, many of whom come here to sample — or help build — one of the best restaurant scenes in Central Europe. New museums, galleries and spruced-up parks counterbalance the city’s classic architecture, thermal baths and other attractions, artfully blending its two halves: reserved, hilly, residential Buda, west of the Danube, and urbane, mostly level Pest, stretching out on the eastern side.

It's more expensive than an average European city.

Welcome to Love Valley 👀💛 The most peculiar and suggestive landscape to explore in Cappadocia. Mother Nature was clearly feeling spicy and trying to set the mood when she made this place. A playful mix of magic, mystery and mischief 😂… just the way I like my adventures! 📍 Located near the town of Göreme, this surreal scenic area is quite blessed with its famous ancient rock formations that tower over visitors and make everyone question their maturity levels. These unique natural pillars are millions of years old and are still standing proud… Talk about endurance goals! 💪🏼 Photos taken on a fun hike with @collin_fpv last November during our trip to Türkiye. It was such a treat being there in the fall season when the trees were turning yellow! ✨ What comes to mind when you see these rock towers? #travelphotography #goturkiye #bucketlisttravel #naturalwonders #lovevalleycappadocia #lovevalley #cappadociaturkey #cappadociaadventure

So excited to explore NYC! 🏙️ Make sure you tune in to the @Subaru_USA livestream on April 16 at 11:50 am EDT… it’s a VERY exciting announcement 👀 #sponsored  I’ve used this trip planning & packing method for years now and it never fails me. I love just being able to wake up each day, open the note on my phone and know exactly where I’m going and what I am wearing. This is especially helpful when I’m jet lagged or tired! Let me know if you give it a try ✈️🧳 #subaru #packingtips #packinghacks #newyorkautoshow #nycpacking #tripplanning

One photo from a landscape photography travel destination followed by one photo from Denmark my home country. Once it clicked and I figured I could probably get something along the same lines as what I’ve captured out there in world, whether it’s the same conditions, same subject, same technique or same composition, it became soooo much more fun to shoot at home. It really did change my photography forever! No we still don’t have mountains, epic waterfalls, cracking glaciers, puffins, whales and big deserts, but we have so many other things. Check out my latest video on YouTube where I teach you to photograph locally. AND if you want to dig even further into local landscape photography be sure to get me and @nigel.danson course on Mastering Local Landscape Photography.In this 4+ hour and 13 video course we’ll be teaching you how to find great locations, how to use them optimally, what strategies to use to optimise your chance of getting great photos, what to do on location, how to compose, edit and print what you capture, what apps to use and much more! This ENTIRE course can be yours for only $99! Check it out via the link in my bio 🤓
