We have started to digitalise photos from those pre-TravelBlog trips and we are planning to write about maybe a handful of them.

We are Emma Holmbro and Ake Dahllof. We live in Stockholm, Sweden. We have travelled more or less regularly since the mid 1990-ies and it seems like the more we travel the more difficult it is to decide where to go next.

Just for your information. Once you get started it doesn't take that much time to digitise the photos. It is a quite quick process where you go through picture after picture and each one takes only a few seconds. It least it was relatively fast with the equipment I used. /Ake
