travel’AIR – Houston, I have a Problem!
My first trip to review portfolios in Houston Fotofest was among the longest, strangest and funniest itineraries I’ve experienced. In 2006, paper tickets started to give way to the electronic tickets.
travel’AIR – some more ice cream
On this sunny spring day, airborne over Greenland, a group of us passengers were standing in the back of the Jumbo. Some were admiring the landscapes of glaciers, while the two of us – me and a passenger from South Africa were unanimous, pointing our looks towards the cabin crew members, who had just completed […]

travel’AIR – cow free airport
Airport is no place for pigs. This view in Moscow Sheremetyevo (SVO) states that it is not for cows either. My flight to China in 2008 had a 10 hour stop-over at SVO . The terminal did not seem different from the one I visited in the very late 1980s, where people would sleep on […]
