The exact date doesn't really matter, so I'll leave it at today's date - this is just a little post to say hello, everyone. 😊

Sometime in August 2001, in Kyrgyzstan, we watched a yurt being built for us to sleep in, in an orchard near Lake Yssyk-Kol. When it was finished, the sun was low in the sky ... so I could make this little self portrait.

Web development professional with an uncurable travel itch. I'm a Friesian female living in Amsterdam, the Netherlands and I'm old/young enough to always wear an aussie hat. ;-) Besides traveling, photography is a major hobby. A colleague remarked recently: "Does the hat have its own passport? I am sure it is far more well-travelled than I am." Well, errm, no. In fact it isn't even in my passport! I actually had to take it off at a border crossing once, so the officer could see it really was me in that passport ... when I was leaving the country! ... full info

Selfportrait on a yurt

The low sun throws a shadow of me (in my aussie hat) on the felt "wall" of a yurt - I couldn't resist making a picture.
