What an amazing trip! A friend and his husband just moved back to the US after five years in Vienna followed by five years in Malta. Total 10 years spent in Europe. We had dinner in my house last Sunday. After hearing the incredible stories they shared about Malta, I can't wait to visit this country one day.
I would rather shorten my lifespan for 30 years in exchange for living 10 years in Europe. Malta would be a good base.
丹尼很擅長大景搭配人物的拍法 充分展現大氣勢的格局,讓我獲益良多!
我只是設法在對的時間出現在對的地方，把我乃瑋當作小小主角，大氣勢是廣角定焦鏡的必然，餘者皆謬獎，不敢當。
就是一個飽看歷史遺跡之旅 好多細節我是一看即忘 名字也記不住 但那些畫面還真是讓人很難忘呀
一大堆教堂古蹟我也記不住，所以才要寫下來。這回總共坐了十趟飛機，追平之前去南美的紀錄。
I like those views of St. Lucia's street and Republic street. Every picture looks unique and fantastic. However, without the beautiful model, these pictures might became normal. You had experience of many local airlines... Great trip !!!
Trapped in Taiwan for three years, my soul was finally re-liberated by the Mediterranean blue sky. It seemed that the exotic scenery had repaid off the debt, once and for all, of distress in my heart.
What Fantastic Trip!
