Though until 2013, I had managed to use Film Cameras, I have migrated to Range Finder Digital Camera recently due to the difficulty to obtain Camera Films.
I hope that you can enjoy ambience of each country.(I had been resident in Dubai since 2009 to May, 2016. Now I have resided in Tokyo, Japan.)
After coming back to Japan, I have been shooting at Tokyo and outskirts as well.

Stay in Prague Old Town, Hotel King's Court.
The city of Prague itself feels like a museum with buildings of all styles. Every square and every building is wonderful.
I especially like the Strahov Monastery Library (the most beautiful library in the world), the St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague Castle, the Communist Museum, the mayors room of the citizens hall.
Here is Pilsner beer birthplace, and any of Hospoda (Beer Pub) are serving delicious Beer.
The wine making is also very popular here, I favorite Frankovka (dry, red) and Pluchaque (dry, white).
Czech cuisine includes roasted ducks and pork kneels, braised dishes (Gulsch and Svikova), Tartar steaks, Cutlets and more are homely dishes.
Marinated dishes (cheese oil pickles, sausage pickles) are the first time to eat.
With private taxi, travel to the southern city of Czech Republic, Třebíč, the ancient capital of Moravian region, and Telč, the pearl of Moravian (the town of the time when it flourished in the 16th century) day trip.

ピルスナー・ビール発祥地だけあって、どのホスポダ(ビアホール)のビールも美味。

This country is blessed with wonderful nature and nations are taking care of those very well. We can enjoy forest bath through fresh leaves aroma even though parks are located in cities.
The miscellaneous goods with the pretty Finnish design are available. Apartments are not incongruous for even if Moomin opens a door and appears.
The people is speaking to others frankly. We can feed Seagulls on breads by hand. Squirrel comes near to us.
A group of Ducks are relaxing here and there by the waterside. Walking was really enjoyable.
Trams, buses, railroads and ferries are on time, and the number of lines are enough. You can move smoothly.
Moomin-world has been recreated at a small island. The world has utilized the landscape of the island and vegetation well and reproduced Moomin valley.

Staying at a hotel in Palermo, Artemisia palace. The city hotel where location was convinient very much, feelings in the room was also comfortable, and has a good service providing an airport shuttle bus.

Palaces, theaters, markets and PARATTSO (Tate of an aristocrat) For VIRRAMARUFITANO (movie God Far Sir's KORUREONE house) whereever I wanted to go is within all walking ranges.

The seafood and local food at a restraurant in a port town are quite delicious.
I wanted to eat another sardine pizza as well as fresh fish again before leaving.
I can suggest to buy a natural salt with slighthly sweet taste from Palermo for a gift.

There grows tangerine orange and lemon very much along the road.

RAGUSA is visited by rental car.The hotel room, staffs and dishes were brilliant in HOTEL Eremo Della Giubiliana in RAGUSA.
After played with cat which looks wearing socks and a watchdog in this hotel, called "Lily" in the daytime, I was healed and relaxed in front of the fireplace in the evening.

The hotel also provides a private runway for guests who comes here by private jet.

The fragrant olive oil grown in Elemo Village was wonderful.

Since the hotel is located in the center of the vast wheat field, lonelily, I go out to a terrace, then nothing is heard, completely silent in the dark time.
Morning was awaked by crowing and cooing of the various wild birds. Even though the hotel located in the field area, it is just 20 minites drive to the famous ancient town from the hotel.

The ingredients bought in ANTICA DROGHERIA in IBURA area were very good taste.

If we had a magical door is able to reach everywhere, I'd like surely to go there every day.

It takes around 2 hours by car to the Villa Romana del Casale.
I have seen a lots of mosaic picture at various places, nevertheless it was the first time to see such a large scale one and remaining very good conditions.
I can see natural wood sorrel fields and olive field during the driving.

The hotel in where I stayed was "Grand (Stockholm)"-> "GYUTE (God Rand)"-> "Burns (Stockholm)".
Stockholm can pay with a credit card even though 1 post card, and is very convenient because SL card like Japanese "SUICA" and "PASUMO"which we can transfer Stockholm city as unified transfer card acceptable the subway, a bus, suburban line and tram look like Japanese "SUICA" and "PASUMO".)
The transfer fare to directly get to Hotels in Stockholm from the International Airport by taxi was almost same the cost as Rapid railway + City taxi from the Central station to the Hotel.
Favorites in Stockholm were "VASA Museum", "Photo Museum" ,"Change in a Gendarmerie" (It seems to be a concert of a brass band, not a just Gendarmerie Change.) and a ghost walk (Places in the old town where had the murder case and the supernatural phenomenon which non foreigner can know and walking small lanes where I never enter by myself.) then, Crayfish dish which is only available from mid of August till September. I had called on WASAHOF restraint to have the Crayfish dish many times. A cafe, "Vete-Katten" (the cinnamon roll on the cardamom dough and princess cake) and "Rosendals Tradgard Cafe" located in Djurgården island).
Gotland mid-in Summer season was a place like heaven. The outward appearance of each house has just only pretty, but also wonderful gardening respectively.The height of the flowering plant, bloom time and flower color combination have been considered. Some natural berries which is also on a lane in a suburb, heavily, it grows. At an famous island with the sheep industry, a lamb dish is a nonesuch.

滞在したホテルは、グランド(ストックホルム)→ギューテ(ゴッドランド)→ バーンズ(ストックホルム)。
ストックホルムはカード社会で、SLカード(地下鉄・バス・郊外電車・トラム共 通、日本のスイカ・パスモみたい)から絵葉書1枚に至るまで、クレジットカードで支払えてとても便利。
空港↔ストックホルムの市内ホテルは、高速鉄道+市内タクシーも、ホテル↔空 港、料金的にはあまり変わらない。
ストックホルムのお気に入りは、ヴァーサ博物館、写真美術館、王宮の憲兵隊の 交代(単なる交代ではなく、ブラスバンドのコンサートのよう)、ゴースト・ウォーク(異邦人には知りようのない殺人事件、超常現象があった旧 市街の所々を、異邦人だとまず立ち入らないような狭い路地を歩きながら雰囲気たっぷりに紹介)、ザリガニ料理(8〜9月だけ食べられる。通ったお店はWASAHOF)、お気に入りカフェはヴェーテ・カッテン(ストックホルム駅近く、カルダモン生地のシナモンロール、プリンセスケー キ)、ローゼンダール・ガーデンカフェ(ユールゴーデン島)。
短い夏を迎えたゴッドランドは、天国の様な処。家々の外観がかわいいだけではなくて、それぞれお庭のガーデニングがまた素晴らしい。草花の背丈や開花時期、花色などを熟考されている。 郊外の小道にも野生のベリーがたわわに実る。養羊の島で、ラム料理は絶品。

8 bridges which span the Danube. The night view is really beautiful in particular.
Almost no changed view for Pest , which compared the now with the prewar days from the Pest. Wherever is visited in Europe, I always admire the cityscapes of those, but Budapest is the best.
The Liberty Bridge Where I stayed in Budapest is Danubius Hotel Gellért which the hot springs is available and nearby Liberty Bridge.
You can put a gown on the swimsuit and come down to a hot spring directly, so there is no troublesomeness of movement by tram with something wet closes, and a guest can refresh himself every day.
Metro, the tram and the bus Budapest transportation authority is managing can use movement in the city with the same coupon ticket, and those are gentle with a traveler as well.
The tone of the people is gentle slowly and very mild. The Hungarian casually speaks to travelers like an acquaintance, and it feels very harmonious.
The Hungary food is also awesome. Wine made in EGERU, goulash soup (paprika soup) and RIBAMAI (foie gras).
For here of the restaurant, I can recommend Belvarosi Disznotoros, located in a Pest area, who has served MANGARITTSUA pork, which is one of a national treasure in Hungarian food.
Ruszwurm located at Hill of royal Palace is recommended to have KUREMESHU with superb taste.
The pretty crown with slanting top cross exhibited in the House of Parliament, an art object of "Jewish shoes" on the esplanade are especially rememberable.
I made a little slide trip to Estergom (Hungary and Catholic head temple) , HORROKU (Maintaining BAROTSU style house made of wood.) as well.

ブダから観る、戦前と今の光景を比較したペストの写真は、殆ど変わっていなかった。
古い街並みを大切にするヨーロッパの姿勢には、どこを訪れても毎度感嘆するが、ブダペストも最高。
滞在したのは自由橋の袂、ゲッレールトの丘の温泉ホテルDanubius Hotel Gellért。
宿泊者は水着の上にガウンを羽織って直接温泉に降りていけるので、濡れたものを持ってトラムで移動などの面倒がなく、毎日リフレッシュできる。
市内の移動はブダペスト交通局が運営しているメトロ、トラム、バスが同じ回数券で利用でき、旅行者にも優しい。
人々の口調はゆっくり穏やかで、とても温和。知り合いのようにあれこれ気軽に話しかけてくれ、とても和やかな旅。

Travel with colleague to Kerala in South India.
Port Cochin-> coconut lagoon (lakeside resort in KUMARAKOMU village)-> back water cruise (I stay at a houseboat and tour through a KUTTANADO area.)
India is a big country. It's different entirely north of MUNBAI.
Tall palm tree, a flower of a rain forest and a purple water hyacinth, colonial house and sticky air, oh,feeling that it was similar to Malaysia.
MASARADOSA made with rice flour and beans (crepe), a seafood dish using coconut milk, tamarind, tomato, mango in cooking,and VADA (the donut which isn't sweet) etc.
The dish is also different from North India (where Yogurt and flour are well used for dish.)
Heavy rain, Green, the group of dragonfly and butterfly, Fisher King (kind of kingfishers and the beautiful little bird which lives in the waterside).
We felt comforted by all things because we came from a country in a desert.

Even though this is first visit here, I have been illluded many times as the town where I enjoyed lengthily because there are many movies and novels based on here. I remembered that "As Olympia lived there here." "the vicinity where Mark's inn was here" "A rector doctor was drawing the scenery overlooked from here." or so.
It's astonished to the wealth and influence because the legacy of Medici is made a hit of an eye actually.
September 8 (birthday of DUOMO) was a special day, and a pretty light-blue flag of a wool trade association could flutter and go out to the terrace where you can't usually enter to.
The taste of the autumn is also satisfied for a grill of SCHACCIATA CON LUVA (the Dolce made with a grape for wine) and PORCHINI (the mushroom I like very much).
This visit was a very good season in September since I can enjoyed such specific seasonal food.
The hotel, PLAZZO DEL BORGO-APRILE (PARATTSO of Medici is repaired.), where I stayed was able to see S.M. NOVERRA chapel from the room. I'm very comfortable though it was small room, it's near Chen Toro and the station, thus it was quote convinient location.
Without lining up a line, Florence card for travelers puts it in a museum and transportation can also use it, and is quite convenient for the person who would like to go around various places in a great hurry.
The most favorite museum was St. Mark monastery (Hula Angelico art museum/"last supper" by which Ghirlandajo has a cat).
Favorite Torattoria, LA BURRASCA and Ristorante, BUCA MARRIO DAL 1886 and a wild boar dish, OSTERIA DEL CINGHAALE BIANCO and Negroni (Campari, Bergamot and Dry Gin Cocktail which have been contrivance in 1920 year ) , CAFE GIACOSA and PROCACCI for panini and GURANITA (shaved ice) GILATERIA CARAVE.
A day trip goes on an outing (by train, one way for about 1 hour) and visited the Leaning Tower in Pisa.
The gift which came in handy is PECORINO TOSCANO (It is mellow cheese. There is the one wrapped in hay and herb.) , pecorini and the mushroom ingredients by which TOSUKANO and FINOKKIONA (Salam which contained fennel seed), ORIO day ORIVA Toscana (olive oil), REJJO Emilia (balsamic vinegar), truffle and porcini mushroom, etc.. Well I want to seriously dwell... (´ - `).

初めてなのに、映画や小説で何度も脳内訪問しているから、「ここはオリンピアの住んでた通り」「マルコの宿があったあたり」「レクター博士はここ から臨んだ景色を描いてた」「パッツィがブレスレッド買った所」と、長く親しんだ街のような錯覚に陥る。

メディチ家の遺産を実際に目の当たりにして、その財力、影響力に改めて驚愕。9月8日(ドゥオーモの誕生日)は特別な日で、羊毛業組合のかわいい水色の旗がはためいて、普段立ち入れないテラスへ出ることができた。

SCHACCIATA CON LUVA(ワイン用の葡萄で作るドルチェ)やPORCHINI(大好きなキノコ)のグリル等、秋の味覚も堪能。
9月訪問は、わたし的に、とてもよい季節 だった。

滞在したホテル PLAZZO DEL BORGO-APRILE(メディチ家のパラッツォを改修)のS・M・ノヴェッラ教会が見える部屋は、小さいけれど、とても居心地がよく、チェントロや駅 に近くてロケーションもグッド。
旅行者用のフィレンツェ・カードは、行列に並ばずにミュージアムに入れるし、交通機関も利用できて、いろんなところを大急ぎで回りたい人にはかな り便利。一番好きなミュージアムはサン・マルコ修道院(フラ・アンジェリコ美術館/ギルランダイオの、猫の居る「最後の晩餐」)。

お気に入りのトラットリアはLA BURRASCA、リストランテはBUCA MARRIO DAL 1886、猪料理はOSTERIA DEL CINGHAALE BIANCO、ネグローニ(1920年当店考案のカンパリ、ベルガモット、ドライジンのカクテル)CAFE GIACOSA、パニーニはPROCACCI、グラニータ(かき氷)GILATERIA CARAVE。

ピサに日帰り遠出して(電車で片道1時間ほど)、斜塔に登る。
重宝したお土産は、ペコリーノ・トスカーノ(ローマのペコリーノと違ってまろやかなチーズ。干し草やハーブに包んだ物も)、フィノッキオーナ (フェンネル・シードを練り込んだサラミ)、 オーリオ・デイ・オリーヴァ・トスカーナ(オリーブ油)、レッジョ・エミーリア(バルサミコ)、トリュフやポルチーニ等のキノコ食材。

A big earthquake occurred on April 25, 2015, and it's said that many historic landmarks and world's cultural and natural heritages also suffered impossible damage according to report.
There will be something we can never see any more in the picture and streets raised here.
I'm wishing safety of the warm Nepalese people sincerely. The ambassador garden home hotel where it's located in TAMERU area that I stayed. The staffs were friendly like family, the hotel was fashionable and cozy, with garden.
Indeed a name of garden home was a fitting hotel. When I visited there, in the season which are SHIVA and Ra Tree (Hindu grand festival) exactly, in a Hindu temple, from all over the world, (even though it's from India mainly.), chatting with Sadhus was quite interested.
I did not have enough time to go trekking and also lacked physical strength to trek, so I took Himalaya Mountain Flight in a morning, it was also awesome.
Momo with a source contained a sesame in New Everest Momo center (Dish is similar to XIO LUNG BO in NEWARU family. Depending upon shop, they are using different source drops.) was not forgettable taste.

This is a place at where I was attracted to visit after watching a famous movie, "Summertime" when I was child.

Even though electricity becomes common, and neon became lighter, I felt that the atmosphere is same as the era of Catherine Hepburn.

I was relaxed like Casanova at a cafe in St. Mark square, where Catherine and Goethe were feeling.

HOTEL RIALTO where it's near the realtor bridge that I stayed.

A guest room is quite nice and I was just overlooking a canal in morning and evening time (it's for business use in the early morning, in daytime I was enjoyable to see gondolas come and go.) from the room window.

The favorite chapel is Santi Giovanni e Paolo.
BAKARI(Pub) where has a "Cat" sign board as log, is the most favorite.

I have made a tour of by rental car. An air conditioner was not equipped because it was the northern district specification car. Having said that it was no problem without any air conditions. Just then, spring is blooming.
In full-blown almonds (A Japanese cherry tree is remembered.), rape blossom and cyclamen of wild race were impressed.
A memory of the myth which interchanged with many cats by a town along a sea and a mosaic in VIZANTIN era were moved. A church and a monastery were beautiful like the world of a picture book, and a mountain village in TORODOSU cleansed a soul.
I also visited in Turkey territory from REFUKOSHIA.
Where I stayed in was Al Mira hotel (PAFOSU), Mira hotel (TORODOSU is very pretty.) and Limassol hotel (REMESOSU).
I smacked my lips in wine and MEZZE (mese) of seafoods and a river fish dish of mountain products (TORODOSU/trout food) are enjoyed.
The lounge at the LARUNAKA International Airport when departing, was also very cozy.

The place circled in a rampart, called "Pearl in Adriatic sea".
When looking down upon a town from Mt. SURUJI, feeling of KIKI of "Kiki's Delivery Service" which is one of famous Japanese cartoon movie can be sensed.
It was destroyed recklessly in the civil war, but beautiful streets like origin were restored.
Through showing the numbers of the hopeless photo picture before restoration, I filled my heart to imagine that it will be indefatigability of the people who would clench their teeth for a recovery fully.
The hotel where I stayed, EXCELSIOR (Ahead of the PUROCHE gate. An old town can be looked around from the room window.)
I have purchased 3 nice straw hats in hat speciality store "RONCHI".
The seafood restaurant attended (in particular, oyster and scampi Prawn) is BUFETT KAMENICE.

Traveled at Jedda.
It's a slightly open city relatively, peculiarly Middle East traditional design buildings have been retained and it was historical. Driving of a car by ladies are forbidden and officers confiscate camera if they found to take a photo in the city. It is quite hard and tough for foreigners to travel. Non-Muslem, you can't get close to Mecca.
