Lalibela, Ethiopia is a UNESCO World Heritage site containing 11 monolithic rock-cut churches. One of Ethiopia's holiest places, Lalibela is a pilgrimage site for the country's Eastern Orthodox Christians. I travelled there in January 2014 to witness the pilgrimage for Orthodox Christmas.

Stockholm Stockholm, Sweden, and the surrounding area, is one of my favourite places to be. History, good design, the traditional mixed with the modern. The summers are short and intense, a time for Swedes to soak up the sun, relax and recharge their batteries before the long winter ahead.
