The Hague was a surprise to me. A city that I only knew due to be home to U.N.’s International Court of Justice. But Hague is way more than this. It has a gorgeous mixture of old and new architecture, a lot of cultural events and canals that will make you feel like you are walking in Amsterdam, without all the tourists.

The East Side Gallery is a living monument to the power of art and the human spirit. Still, it is also subject to the ravages of time and weather. That's why the East Side Gallery e.V., an artists' initiative, was founded in 1996 to restore and preserve the works. In 2009, the entire gallery was restored by 87 artists, and 100 paintings was repainted.

The Reto Ultra Wide & Slim is a small, lightweight plastic camera requiring no batteries. No batteries are needed because this is an effortless camera with nothing remotely technological inside. The Reto camera has a fixed f11 aperture, a single 1/125th of a second shutter speed, and a 2-element focus-free plastic lens. But what caught our attention here was the wide 22mm focal length.

We looked around eBay Kleinanzeigen and found someone with a golden one, and we had to get it. We paid less than €10 for the camera, and the first thing we did once we got home was to clean the text in the front of the camera and remove any sign of what the camera used to be. Now we have a custom Vivitar Panorama, and we love how weird it takes pictures.

The Szczecin Philharmonic is the main reason why Szczecin appeared under my radar. The building is so magnificent and beautiful that it won numerous architectural awards when it was open to the public, back in 2014.
