New Year in Calancute, Goa
I usually do not write that much, but here are some photo’s taken at the beach in Calancute, Goa.
The beach was so full of Indians from the countryside, most had not seen the sea before, the joy they showed was so childlike. Tourist are a minority in this party even if there were plenty of us there also. The techno music came from every shack on the beach, different noice from all of them, you could hardly talk. There were beautiful bonfire’s on the beach and people were sending memory kite’s, we also tried, they looked beautiful in the dark sky. At midnight the fire works started and lasted for some time. Quite wonderful.

Seurasaari Island
These photo’s are from the open-air museum of Seurasaari, it is located on a beautiful green island just a few kilometres from the heart of Helsinki. The island is a tranquil oasis in the midst of the city and at the museum the traditional Finnish way of life is displayed in the cottages, farmsteads and manors of the past four centuries that have been relocated from all around Finland.
