On The Go
Quick picks and previews, taken with the phone or processed with the phone, usually while travelling but also random moments from everyday routine.
I often tell everyone that the more I go to masked traditions, at least in this corner of Europe, the less important the mask and the costume feels to me. It still is, a lot, don’t get me wrong, but there are so many other subtle things that it feels not fair to look only at that one. But today, as I quickly browsed through my pictures from my return to Ousilhão, one that caught my eye was one where the mask is the main character. I’d love to be more consistent, but things aren’t as linear as that 😁
Finally time to give Bhaktapur its well deserved slow place, because good things don’t like rushing out. #bhaktapur #kathmanduvalley #nepal










Panauti, a quiet, slow paced, no frenzy Nepali historic town for a change. #panauti #kathmanduvalley #nepal









Hike in the Kathmandu Valley countryside, to reach Namo Buddha, one of Nepal’s holy Buddhist places. Made me realize I still have things to do at Bodhanauth, let’s see if I can squeeze that when I returned to Kathmandu. #namobuddha #kathmanduvalley #nepal








Day 4 - Dovan to Machhapuchhre Base CampGoing up, up in the mountains, but often what’s over there isn’t a bright sunny day.#annapurna #annapurnatrek #nepal







Any city looks better by dawn, but Patan is really a place best seen under the first rays of light. Not only because the lack of tourists that haven’t arrived yet from the day tours from Kathmandu, but mostly from its slow awakening, with the daily routines coming to life, specially the visit to the temples at the beginning of the day. #patan #kathmandu #nepal









Just went for a quick night stroll around my hotel, for real!#patan #kathmandu #nepal








Day 8 - Ghandruk to NayapoolThat’s a wrap! …On the trekking part. #annapurna #annapurnatrek #nepal
Day 8 - Chhomrong to GhandrukLet’s just ignore the steep downhill and uphill midday, and focus on the bucolic countryside of Nepal that we started and ended the day. #annapurna #annapurnatrek #nepal









Day 7 - Dovan to Chhomrong.The bliss of repeating the same stretch of track you done a few days before, but in a much more relaxed way that gives space to the small things you missed the first time. #annapurnatrek #annapurna #nepal
