It was an interesting trip going to Torrox beach. Actually I had in mind going to this little idyllic town called Torrox, I had looked up in the internet, but then I accidently went off the bus one station too early and found myself in the middle of a “Las Vegas” made for German tourists. If Martin Parr would make movies, i would have definitely felt like being right in the middle of one. This place was flooded of artificiality, all waiters talking German, typical offers like tapas and sangria 2 for 1 written in fluorescent letters. At the beginning i was quite frustrated because of being there, because i really hate these touristic impersonal places, but it is a good and funny training for the mind and makes you thing about the absurdity of life. Thanks for that Torrox Beach.
At the end i found this spot at the beach I really liked and without my getting lost I wouldn´t have it in my collection of Malaga pictures.
I really love these artificial playgrounds they have along the beaches here in Malaga.
This week I went by bike to Pedregalejo . It was a very nice trip by the beach. Once i got there I first had a look around the old fishers neighborhood, because the project I am doing at “La Térmica” in Malaga, is going to be about these little fisher houses.
Walking around I saw two boys playing football. I was very happy to be here in winter, because the beaches are still vacant and the landscape just feels so much mmore authentic without swarms of tourists.
looking thew my images I found this image I made in Bilbao at the beach. I really like the combination of the colors.
It started out to be a very beautiful day, but then suddenly the weather changed, maybe I hadn´t got the best views, but the ambiance was just fantastic, melancholic and misterious.
The horses up in the “mountain” reminded me a lot of the cows we have in austria. There was no fence, they where just freely walking around with huge bells around their necks.

Yesterday was such a beautiful sunny day that we decided to go to the beach of Plentzia, which is like 40 minutes far from Bilbao by metro.
The sand at Plentzia is very delicate, it makes me remember my childhood, playing in the garden making sand castles all day long.
Tom, Franz and I made sand portraits of each other which I want to share with you!
A trip to Mundaka. It was at low tide and the fish at the beach of mundaka looked like forming abstract paintings to me.
