I agree about Lisbon and, on the whole about the Algarve, although I rather liked Tavira and would suggest anybody forced to use Faro airport should spend the night in Tavira rather than Faro.
Isn't KL wonderful; I really enjoyed every bit of this city and will definitely go again.
With regards to Jakarta, I found it a little like Delhi, so I will reserve my judgement. But I think it's more about what the rest of Java has to offer.

... why Aachen or Aken ;-)
for a very simple reason - the love!
However, for my job I drive to my former base Bonn almost every day.
I have never been to Eindhoven, even I grew up next to Venlo. It's only 45 min to go and the only part of the city I have seen is the airport. Shame on me... But if I'd like to visit the city one day, you will have suggestions to go, I guess?

Thanks for your comment. That picture was the only incident that caught my eye. The oaks and palms grow separately; I guess that was just a fluke.
I'm glad you liked my pictures from Prague. As you can see I'm still uploading pics I made almost two years ago. I've been working hard recently and therefore less active on Globo. Probably my workload will ease slightly soon, so I hope to share more pictures and finish a few reports. I'm also going to spend a day or two taking photos in Warsaw. Soon I'm buying a better lens for my camera to replace the kit one. I'm also waiting for better weather. I do remember I promised you posting some pictures of the Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw. I hope I'll manage to find two spare days in April and look around with my camera.
I will keep my fingers crossed for you finding accommodation in Vienna and Prague. I love both cities and would love to visit them again.
Thanks for your comments. I think I wrote this report about a year ago and was in two minds of publishing it, as it has been a while since I was in NYC. The pictures are really retro - late 80s early 90s. I never seem to walk around with my camera, like when I vacation, as my aim in NY is always to blend into the community. Maybe it's time for different type of trip.
I am a student at the Design academy Eindhoven. I am doing a masters thesis about hybrid culture and I wanted to ask if I can use your photo of the the mosque/synagogue in the Hague.
If you have a high-resolution image, could you send it to me? (esinstudio@gmail.com)
I will use it for my thesis book and my final presentation, and will of course credit you if you give me your name.
I have 26 days of paid holiday plus about 8 days of public holiday, which I use for travel. Not much. I know I should've worked as a teacher with three months holiday plus public holidays or in a French bank with 14 weeks of vacation on top of some 13 days of public holidays.... ;)
It might sound that I travel excessively since I post a lot of material, but the majority of the reports, travel tips, etc are my past experiences, which I had not submitted before as I only have been a GLOBO member since 23 January this year. I am just catching up.
