I am a Romanian photographer and traveler. Last year, my wife, our five-year-old son, and I decided to move to the United Kingdom. We needed something new in our lives, a new challenge, and a fresh start, so we found a small and beautiful town in the countryside and it happened.

We needed about two months to accommodate the weather, the local customs, and the very well-known English language courtesy. It was fun learning new local expressions.

We used our free days and weekends to discover the country which seems to be always green, maybe because almost every day is a rainy day.

I like the culture for preserving their inheritance, how they look after the wildlife, and that people are always smiling (or at least most of the time).

    I would seriously enjoy living in this lighthouse.

    I'm guessing this is somewhere in the Cotswolds?

    Porgs ! The porgs were actually the puffins that inhabited the islands where they filmed Luke's hideout. It was easier to digitally alter puffins into porgs after filming, than to keep puffins out of the shots.

    Puffins exist because a species of bird couldn't decide if they wanted to be toucans or penguins, so they went halfway between both.

    Was meant to go there last August as well, but my travel companion could not manage the steep path down to the lighthouse... will have to revisit. We stayed at a rental cottage about a mile away... it was a lovely visit.

    This looks like Portland Bill in Dorset.

    Portland Bill again. The stone sticking up on the right is on Pulpit Rock.

    There's something magical about black and white photography. Always stuns me when I see it.

    I live in the centre of England and throughout this whole lockdown all I've wanted is to visit a beach 😔. Your photo almost takes me there

    During our travels in the UK, I found myself often reflecting on the dynamics of human relationships that I had read about.

    There's something intriguing about how people connect, much like those funny relationship memes I've seen which depict the humorous side of romantic connections. It's a reminder that relationships, just like our journey to a new country, are filled with challenges and laughter.
