Weekend in Berlin

Last weekend I spent in Berlin with a friend, doing research for a bunch of stories. I think we managed six or seven photo exhibitions and 17 (or so) bars and restaurants. Hard work.

Here are some photos from the trip.

Saturday in Marseille

The morning walk from the hotel down to the harbor takes me through the Arab neighborhood. This feels a lot more Cairo or Jerusalem than Marseille or Europe. 

At lunch, I ventured out to MAC - the Museum for Contemporary Art. Very far away, and it didn't help that three out of four directions received by the bus drivers where in the very opposite direction. 

First day in Marseille

This weekend I am attending Festival Mondial de l'Image Sous-Marine in Marseille. Very interesting, but also nice to get to know this grubby harbor city a bit better.

Lunch in Brussels with Sara

Today I had a beautiful morning in Brussels. Met my dear friend Sara Ahnborg and her little baby Trixie. Had a cup of tea at St Gery, then a nice beer (Saison Cazaux) at Chez Moeder Lambic, followed by divine scallops at outdoor bar/restaruant Mer du Nord at Place St Catherine - my favourite.
Couldn't resist a gaufre as dessert.
Nice to be back in my old hometown.
In the afternoon I jumped anther plane and now I am in Marseille to attend a big underwater photo- and film festival.
