Despedida

So, I think I've already said how much I love Madrid in this post. But this time my visit there was even more special for two reasons: I spent New Years Eve with my friend Sofia and her lovely family and friends and I got to see a friend I haven't seen in a very very long time. It was a trip full of happy reunions and I started this year with a very optimistic vibe.
I'm not gonna say again how much I adore this city and blabla but seriously one of the best things someone can do in their lives is go to Madrid and walk around in the city centre (with or without company).
Here's a bunch of pictures I really like.
Despedida is a really good song by the way.

Geneva by Night

And the sun is setting and the night falls in Geneva. But no darkness. Lots of light. Obviously very pretty Christmas lights.  Also big bright signs on top of buildings such as "Rolex" and "Cartier". And I was like "Oh I'm a bit lost here but look there's an enormous "Rolex" sign over there so I know where I can buy a new watch." And most of it reflecting in the lake and making everything even prettier. I even saw some random phrases on top of buildings. I really loved this city, seriously.
Plus, a photo of a very impressive exhibition at CERN.

Days in Thessaloniki

So, last week I spent some days in Thessaloniki (you can check my other post about the city here) with my gorgeous best friend who lives there now. We had so much fun (as we always do) and got the oportunity to shoot some pictures together after a long time. I'll never get tired of saying that she's my favorite model ever.
Thessaloniki is very picturesque and I love its vibe. So many well dressed people of all ages filling the many cool cafés, restaurants and clubs. You can't get bored while you're there. Also another thing that makes the city magical is the sea. The sea gives a very relaxing vibe to the urban scenery.
Enjoy some of my favorite photos (I am crazy for sunsets I know, but then again, who isn't?). :)

Last Year In Madrid

I've always loved spending time in Madrid. I particularly enjoy the city's architecture and vibe. I also get a warm feeling everytime I visit Madrid as I have spent many summers there with my parents as a child so it fills me with good memories. Another reason I love it there is because I get to spend time with my lovely photogenic friend Sofia. :D
So, these are my favorite photos of the city, taken last year.
This time I took long walks alone in the city and I found myself taking pictures of random people in the streets. Photographers never get bored! Hahaha Especially in a city like Madrid.

Winter Mood: Thessaloniki

Earlier this year (near Christmas) I took a school trip to the north of Greece, in the beautiful city of Thessaloniki. I had a great time with my friends and I snapped many pictures of the city. When I got home I realised I appear in like 5 or 6 photos of the trip... Hum, so typical. That's the downside of not really letting anybody touch my camera. I prefer being behind the lens rather than in front of it. Hahaha.
Now my best friend is moving to Thessaloniki and I'm seriously considering to visit the city again. ;)

Athens City, Baby

There΄ll always be people who will say that Athens is an ugly city. Well, I don't think it is. I just think that these people are unable to see the true beauty of the city that sometimes is hiding behind details. Other times this beauty is quite peculiar and cannot be perceived by the common eye. But there are those places in Athens that in a breathtaking way show off the city's ancient history. And that's why it's a number one destination for tourists, right?
I've been living here for quite a while actually and now that I may be moving to another city in the next month I'm starting to feel nostalgic. These are my favourite shots of some of Athens' corners that I snapped on many different occasions.

Αγαπάτε την Αθήνα, ρεεε..
