We live in New Zealand, it is really beautiful country. Come to visit us or at least visit this link - Aotearoa - Land of Long White Cloud We are fond of the Nature. I mean we really love it, more than anything else in the world! Especially mountains. Visit this link to learn What Mountains mean for us Staying at home it is difficult to profess this passion to Nature. No wonder then, that we travel a great deal. Generally, in the car, on the bike or just walking. Here you will find the reports and stories about some of Our Trips After our first trip to mountains Paul developed the films and contracted serious illness called Passion for Photography. This section harbours many of our best pictures. Occasionally Paul finds himself obsessed with inspiration and typing something on keyboard. The rare outcome could be read here - Writing and Reading. new! We try to care about people. Our special concern are the people of Tibet. This page is devoted to the Tibetans, the Dalai-Lama and Buddhism. |

Six weeks ago we took a week off and drove up to Auckland where we attended the Dalai-Lama public talks and teachings. Though His Holiness was not talking about his homeland at all, this event urged me to launch the long planned page devoted to the people of Tibet and the Dalai-Lama. Please visit it now! |

In January 2006 we did a wonderful sea whale watching trip in Kaikoura. The experience was unforgetable, and the wild life problems came suddenly into focus. Right after disembarking we signed the petition to Japanese government to stop whaling for so-called scientific purposes. They didn't of course. Why I am talking whales today, 9 months after that trip? Because the breaking news is that Iceland announced today the launch of whaling, thus breaking international ban of whaling which prevented everyone to kill the whales for two decades. At least the Icelanders are honest - they do not hide behind the science, they openly admit that they are just hungry, and they want to eat those whales. Could we do something about it? Maybe not. But the world changes due to wee efforts of millions - please sign that petition against whaling here! Please!

So called Ghost of Brocken. Whatever philosophical thoughts this blend of light and shadow may cause one thing is clear - it could be only experienced on high mountain ridge. The thing is not to lose your mind to anavalanche of emotions!
