S/y 'Easy' for Sale. Thursday, 29 January 2015. Packing luggage for two weeks, in a way that KLM accepts it as carry-on luggage is not a small achievement. Im quite proud, I managed to squeeze in 5 sets of formal clothing, 3 sets for the weekend, three pairs of shoes, toiletries two laptops, a tablet, three electrical adapters and one yellow rubber bath duck. The large chain hotels are all in a race to own the largest, shiniest, loudest, baddest, hotel bar of all hotel bars. In all honesty, this is how I...

Taas.iT: Etna
http://blog.taas.it/2015/05/etna.html
S/y 'Easy' for Sale. Friday, 15 May 2015. Etna has come to life last night. Was it a rumbling giant until today, now it sounds like an artillary barrage. The trip up was cut short by the guide, because ash and falling stones became too dangerous. Notice the vibrations in the video due to shaking of the ground. At night, the lava stream and eruptions are quite visible from the hotel garden. We just hoped the hotel wouldn't end up like the house in the picture on the right. Anja's blog: anja.taas.it.

Taas.iT: October 2014
http://blog.taas.it/2014_10_01_archive.html
S/y 'Easy' for Sale. Sunday, 19 October 2014. Cologne, home of 4711. The smelly Eau de Cologne. Really, I do understand why the Finnish selected 4711 as a direct line to their Poison Information Centre. During the 2nd World War the Kriegsmarine was its biggest customer. It was issued to crews because there werent exactly showers on board the German U-boats. Thats as far as tivialities about the 200 year old perfume go. I was trying to escape Cologne by taking the ICE. Location: Dom in Köln, Germany.

Taas.iT: Castelmola
http://blog.taas.it/2015/05/castelmola.html
S/y 'Easy' for Sale. Sunday, 17 May 2015. Panorama op Taormina en de kust/Panorama down Taromina and the coast. Opgebouwd als bijna elk bergdorp hier op Sicilië. Een roversnest - inmiddels ruïne - op de top en een dorp met steile smalle straatjes eromheen. Het roversnest - de meeste reisgidsen noemen het kasteel - stamt typisch uit de Griekse, Arabische of Normaanse overheersing; in veel gevallen uit alle drie. Je kunt niet ontkennen dat Castelmola. De kustlijn en vulkaan Etna. You can't deny, Castelmola.

Taas.iT: Gole Alcantara
http://blog.taas.it/2015/05/gole-alcantara_18.html
S/y 'Easy' for Sale. Monday, 18 May 2015. Is of Arabic origin (al-Qanṭarah meaning 'the Arch'). The ' Gole. Offers canyons up to 50 meters deep, which you can traverse when the water is low, later in the season. Right now, there's still too much meltwater coming down the mountain slopes and people use the side of the fast fowing river as a local beach. The walls have a weird over-saturated grey colour and appear checkered, or built from piled up boulders. Sailing, travelling, photography and other follies.

Another controversy is the temporary Ponte Vecchio that visiting Italians take as a personal affront. Location: Irene Tunnel Delft, NL.
