Rich without Money

I had the great chance to travel to Iran to facilitate a Youth Empowerment conference
While there, I became good friends with the chair of the conference Tomi Astikainen

He is a very influential person from Finland and traveled the world without paying a single penny
Not only that, but also managed to write a book about it in Finnish and English

I was honored to design a book cover for his English e-book


Here is a link to his book:

Feel free to read, get inspired, and share the goods

New Lens Tryout

I got a new lens!
It's a Canon 100mm f2.8 macro

So I took it out to try it out.
Didn't find much except for some flies, but they looked awesome!




Invasive Polka Dot Nudibranch

Last year my professor brought a nudibranch (sea slug) form his dive which is new to the Mediterranean. It was a Chromodoris annulata and it is originally from the Red Sea.
It was my job to document it. But I got some other cool pictures. This is one of them.


I've Got My Eyes On You

My mom was excited the other day when she came back from Ferzol.
She showed me that she found this Mediterranean Chameleon (Chameleo chameleon)

My brother and I both love reptiles so this little guy roams on the balcony.
I took this photo when it was hiding in the plant.
