Stairs for young (and preferably sober) people
There are only a few designs in this collection that seem ok for people of a certain age. Most of them, although very beautiful, make me dizzy!

Nomads of Mongolia: a vanishing lifestyle

I prepared a post and forgot to publish it!
I tried, I really tried, but I was trying to post and having three conversations at the same time: Dora in Miami, Paul in Melbourne, and Billy in Munich. It was a lazy post because it's so hot, just some nice random photos... We managed to go for a walk in the morning, had lunch (when all the conversations were going on), then went to the beach and finally popped to the supermarket for some essentials. Not a bad day, apart from leaving the post hanging in mid air! I hope you enjoy the photos.
