beautiful costa rica

Sometimes I find it hard to truly capture the beauty of a place when taking photos. When you visit a place like Costa Rica your senses are getting hit from all angles, the warm, humid air, birds singing, sounds from the ocean, monkeys howling, and sweet scents from the many tropical flowers . So it is rather difficult to depict all of these wonderful things in a photograph…but I love the challenge. I did the best I could to do this magnificent place any justice. I hope you enjoy :)

happy valentines day

While I’m not the hugest fan of this Hallmark holiday and I don’t require large amounts of chocolates and flowers, and don’t even get me started on going out for dinner on this day (why on earth would anyone do that??)…I do love Love :) I think we should appreciate it when we have it, everyday. But hey, if there is a reason to express your love a bit more, why not right?

In many towns in Europe I’ve seen this tradition where lovers put their locks onto a bridge and throw the key away in the river below. I think it’s sweet and it makes for cool, colorful bridges everywhere. My husband and I haven’t done this yet, but maybe one of these days :) Hope everyone has a happy Valentines day!

a winter wonderland…

Last weekend the hubby and I went to one of my favorite places to go in the summer. I must say, the Partnachklamm is even more beautiful in the winter! Here are a few shots from the day.
