I am back!
After a permanent stay in china for three years, i made it out early december!
of course not without catching covid (for the first time), a few days before departure, so i already had headache when boarding the plane, i guess 50% of the passengers were positive anyway.
the following 5 weeks were extremely helpful to calm my mind and relax, those 3 years in china were extremely tough, and if it didnt show on the outside, it did work on the inside for sure.
early january i started a road trip, to visit a few friends, amongst who was one i haven't seen in like 7-8 year, this trip took me to a small town close to basel, bern, zürich, back to germany, immenstadt, memmingen, leipzig and to berlin. seeing all those friends after 3 years of the pandemic, or even longer, was really mind opening.
and i came to the conclusion its time to say good bye, so within the next half or full year i will leave china, one way or another.
anyway, to start a new year of photography, here are some impressions from the region around immenstadt, in bavaria, i was extremely lucky, since the snow fell only a day before my arrival and was gone the day after my departure(i only stayed there one night though), i felt truly blessed walking this trek through the woods, in these conditions.
