I am Astrid Padberg, I live in rainy Wuppertal / Germany and for more than 20 years I use my annual holiday to get to know other countries and cultures. Besides traveling one of my favourite hobbies is taking photographs.

On the English site you'll find a photo gallery with photos from all over the world and several travel reports. Besides there's an extensive list of links. On the German site there is also detailed travael information about various countries and I'm still working on the translation.

If you have any questions, ideas, proposals, wishes ...... please don't hesitate to send a short e-mail.
