I’m becoming a grumpy old person, and still kind of getting back to the everyday routine after returning from Nepal, so take this with a huge pinch of salt. But I’m getting so tired of most of the travel content being created nowadays, we somehow lost the joy of curiosity and discovery.
When did the travel stuff switched from the displaying the best of a place to “hey, look what I am doing now!”?
Why do most of the travel content creators now put themselves between the reader and the place they’re at?
Why do so many of them kind of play around with the readers lack of knowledge of that place to not be entirely honest about it, so it conveys the narrative they’re building?
I think I know the answers to all these questions, I guess this evolution to a more lifestyle driven way to do things never really caught on me. But again, I’m just a grumpy old guy…
This is a scaffold of the ongoing repairs from the damages of 2015 earthquake… Arriving home from Nepal, with the news that another one has struck, is both heartbreaking and a brutal reminder of how that beautiful country is vulnerable to nature…

Don’t like to give gear lessons to anyone, each is free to choose what works for them, but having a large photographer group in the narrow cities of Bhaktapur, each with bulky, full frame, vertical grip DLSRs along huge telephoto lenses and big backpacks might be a bit too much.
Não querendo generalizar, mas se há turista que literalmente se borrifa no resto são grupos de franceses, seja para locais ou outros turistas. Parece que estão numa pequena bolha francesa…
The bliss of the first good hot shower in a week, one with a really good flow of warm water running on your back, is something you can’t really explain. Specially when you weren’t counting on it for today… 😊😊
