I collect here my photos and descriptions of different places and environments in Skåne. My ambition is to create a gallery of pictures of Skåne, which is not so touristic, but shows the circumstances it happened to be at my visit. The descriptions are short, a part of travel is to get there and see for yourself, and not get too much presented. One need not travel far in this world to experience something different. It is well with the micro-tourism, i.e. the tourists in their home areas.

On the web since 1997.
