Nepal Part 2 - Diversity: Wildlife, Mountains, & More
This is the second part of my Nepal blog, leaving the Kathmandu valley and exploring the wildlife of Bardiya, Pokhara’s mountain views, and more.
Blog-posts - Florian Kriechbaumer
This blog contains some stories centred around travel, photography and exploration of new countries and cities around the world, where I aim to describe interesting photographic experiences, unique photo spots and recommendations for other travellers and photographers. All of the material is shot with Olympus Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and lenses, but I suspect the occasional iPhone image will also be featured.
