Hanging out with my mates of #fujixfocus FB group on #photowalk in Lisbon’s riverfront, taking a handful of photos, that’s a nice and calm Saturday morning.PS - yes, that’s a Sony camera in the shot, we’re an inclusive Fuji group :D
Just like last year, yesterday I arrived home with the same kind of feeling: my soul filled with joy and inspiration, from the people on stage and those who were sitting next to you. I only feel sorry not being able to interact with more people, from speakers to friends and complete strangers, but two days go by in a blink of an eye.Huge respect and admiration for Bernardo, Pedro, Gonçalo, Isabel and the rest of the team for pulling this off, and can’t thank them enough for letting me be part of it this year. Also a big thank to all those who attended my talk and sang Happy Birthday to me (first time from so many people 😀) or say hi throughout the weekend.In my mind there’s still the closing thought from the talk of Timothy Allen (one of the reasons I returned this year): find meaning. Let’s do that in our travels.See you all there next year! #ngexodusaveirofest #ngeaf #aveiro #portugal #festival #adventure #travel #photography #discover #explore
Big weekend ahead! I will be talking at this stage today, and be attending the this amazing conference for the whole weekend. Looking forward for everything: to share my travels, getting inspiration from talented photographers and meeting new cool people!! #ngexodusaveirofest

The streets around the Red Market, specially the ones when you walk towards the Three Lamps District, are probably my favorite in Macau. A slightly more modern neighborhood, that lacks the traditional cobblestone sidewalks, but so lively and with a neat vintage look.But regardless of which way you walk it’s always busy, so this is a rare peaceful moment.Already left southeast China, but I have so many fresh memories from there… #adifferentchina #macau #street #architecture

The always present, and aesthetically questionable, Grand Lisboa casino, seen from the old streets of Macau.Already left southeast China, but I have so many fresh memories from there… #adifferentchina #macau #street #architecture

The unmistakable red and white taxis are so much of what Hong Kong is, just like the flashy neons and the dramatic skyline. #adifferentchina #hongkong #cityscape #street

Being able take a deep breath and see one of the most amazing skylines in the world from this perspective has to be the highlight of your day! #adifferentchina #hongkong #landscape #nature #trekking #hiking

Concentration needed for a game of Chinese chess, despite all the noise and distractions from busy Mong Kok. #adifferentchina #hongkong #street

In Thailand there is a market with a train line passing right through it a few times a day, and in Hong Kong there’s one where a tram goes by every few minutes. #adifferentchina #hongkong #street

Just like in Macau or Taiwan, every pretty wall is worthy of mini photo shoot, or even a real one. And this is by far the most popular of Hong Kong.#adifferentchina #hongkong #street

There is no other way to start Hong Kong, other than its skyline, specially the Bank of China building, by far the coolest skyscraper around the world.#adifferentchina #hongkong #cityscape

Already left Taiwan but has been break day, between travel, laundry and resting. For now it sure is about the most recent memory, and that has to be the busy and colorful neighborhood of Ximending. #adifferentchina #taiwan #taipei #street

Beach day at the beautiful East coast, with the green mountains always looking from behind. Kind of beach day, because no one can bathe: the shoreline is too deep and treacherous. All that’s left is looking at the sea, like from an old set of binoculars. #adifferentchina #street #taiwan #hualien #beach

Saying that you are at a place that makes you feel small is a overused cliché, but with its narrow valleys and high peaks Taroko make you feel just like that. #adifferentchina #taiwan #taroko #nature #landscape

Big part of the day spent in transit, with a brief return to Taipei. As I was getting to my final train I noticed something that as a boy I’d never let go: to be able to ride by the front window!#adifferentchina #street #taiwan #taipei #subway

Jiufen is the unavoidable postcard, the eternal movie set, the place where every place you look is a potencial photo, just as long as you can avoid the menus on the walls. #adifferentchina #taiwan #jiufen #street

Those pesky claw vending machines that I hate so much, at Taipei there are brightly lit rooms full of those everywhere!#adifferentchina #taiwan #taipei #street

Today was the day to shoot Barad-dûr, the tower of dark lord Sauron… Ehhhh… Not really, it was Taipei 101, I keep confusing them… It’s meant to look like bamboo, but when I look at it I can only see one thing. #adifferentchina #taiwan #taipei101 #taipei #cityscape
