It’s well known that Copenhagen is not the top of a backpacker’s list, as stories about its high prices have spread among travellers all over the world. It cannot be denied, Copenhagen is expensive, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t discover the city’s sights, eats and drinks on a budget. You only have to know the right places. Of...

A visit to Kyoto wouldn’t be complete without seeing the amazing Arashiyama Bamboo Grove. Though no picture can capture the feeling of standing in the midst of this sprawling bamboo grove, I tried my best to show you the palpable sense of otherness that is quite unlike that of any normal forest I know of.
