Tainan, Taiwan-Beehive Fireworks Festival-This by far is one of the craziest events I’ve ever witnessed anywhere in my travels. Considered one of the world’s most dangerous festivals every year during the Lantern Festival in the town of Yanshui they honor the Lord Guandi a God for saving the people of their village from a devastating plague. Millions of firecrackers and bottle rockets are lit in the streets original to the act that took place in the 19th century that signalled an end to the plague. It’s believed to be good luck if you’re hit by one of the rockets, I have been hit several times and have one or two scars as proof. This guy takes it to a whole other level by being draped in strings of firecrackers that are set off with protection only from a helmet and heavy jacket-total insanity but an incredibly intoxicating event! #fireworks #lanternfestival #cny #lunarnewyear #tainan #taiwan #streetphotography#photojournalism #away #tripme #traveling #alone #photooftheday #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #buddhism #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #leica #buddhist #instafollow#travellife #FF #igtravel #followme #travelphotography January 21, 2018 at 04:51PM

Taipei, Taiwan-I’ll be featuring a few images from past Chinese,(Lunar),New Year celebrations in Taiwan. Another one from The Longshan Temple circa 2016. Do you appreciate B&W images like the previous one or do you prefer travel pictures in color? I always look forward to the masses at the major temples in Taipei on New Year’s Day. Such an amazing spirit and community and the feeling of being part of a celebration that’s existed for almost 5000 years is pure enlightenment. #cny #lunarnewyear #taipei #taiwan #streetphotography#photojournalism #away #tripme #traveling #alone #photooftheday #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #buddhism #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #leica #buddhist #instafollow#travellife #FF #igtravel #followme #travelphotography January 21, 2018 at 01:16AM

Taipei, Taiwan-Lunar New Year(Chinese New Year) 2017-The Longshan Temple is one of the most visited temples on the first day of the new year. I’m always especially moved and inspired by the seniors who come out, despite being physically challenged in some cases, getting dressed up and visiting the temple for first prayers of the new year. The devotion is truly moving. This year Chinese New Year is February 16! #cny #lunarnewyear #taipei #taiwan #streetphotography#photojournalism #away #tripme #traveling #alone #photooftheday #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #leica #blackandwhitephoto #instafollow#travellife #FF #igtravel #followme #travelphotography January 20, 2018 at 10:27AM

Hue, Vietnam Took a motorbike one day out to the countryside to visit a very famous covered bridge. On the way back to the city caught these glorious “God Rays” over the rice paddies and fields. I love Hue but unlike Hoi An, which is very walkable, it’s necessary to have your own transportation, either a hired car and driver or motorbike. Super cool sites and awesome food in the fold Imperial capital. #vietnam #hue #fuji #myfujifilm #fujifilm #streetphotography#photojournalism #away #tripme #traveling #alone #photooftheday #walkingstreet #nightmarket #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #wildernessculture#instafollow#travellife #FF #igtravel #followme #travelphotography January 19, 2018 at 10:21AM

Bangkok, Thailand-What is it with cats? Are you like me finding yourself always stopping at the site of cats, pausing to pet, stare, take pictures? In this case near some of the most important temples of Thailand. Their presence is calming, appropriately, coincidentally Buddha-like, and if you’re like me immediately, if not already, moved into the present by their being! I can’t have pets because I’m a traveler so I’m especially grateful for these moments. Are you petless and crave or appreciate moments like this on the road? #streetphotography#photojournalism #away #tripme #thailand #bangkok #traveling #alone #buddha #photooftheday #igtravel #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #foodstyling #retro #italiandesign #italian #wildernessculture#instafollow#travellife #FF #igtravel #followme #igcats #travelphotography January 18, 2018 at 10:53PM

Unawatuna, Sri Lanka-Everything about this place is exotic from the long stretches of palm lined beaches that face the Indian Ocean to the multi-dish rice and curry dinners that take hours to prepare. British colonial heritage along with Sinhala and Tamil culture makes for an intense senses overload. I love the use of coconut milk and fruit in the curries, spicy Sri Lankan breakfasts, bags of fresh roasted local cashews, tea time with cake in the afternoon, proper gin & tonics with a small bucket of ice on the side, and true old world South Asian hospitality-the waiter knowing I want and need a cold beer without asking, and this beach? It’s heaven! #srilanka #ceylon #unawatuna #podcast #photojournalism #trekking #backpacking #away #tripme #traveling #alone #photooftheday #travelblogger #luxurytravel #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #wildernessculture#instafollow#travellife #igtravel #travelphotography #beachlover January 18, 2018 at 12:09AM
