We travel to explore, relax and find excitement and inspiration. We photograph to capture the memories of these journeys and emotions they invoke. To many photography itself is a way to relax, inspire, and create. Travel and photography are the perfect pair. I honestly could not imagine being on a journey to a new destination and not having my camera by my side. Over the years, I have visited many new places, always with my camera, and usually with too much stuff.

Delve into the splendour of Europe with a cruise along the Rhine River, which is often noted for its immense beauty and inspiring landscape. The Rhine is the second longest river in Central and Western Europe, after the Danube, at about 1,230 km in length. Over 500 medieval castles, churches, ruins and fortresses line this narrow river bank. Paired with the region's lush vineyards, timber framed houses, cobblestone streets, and friendly people, exploring the towns and villages along the Rhine feels like stepping back in time and into a fairy tale.

Multigenerational travel has been growing over the last decade as families move further apart compared to more traditional living situations with families growing more locally.
