A three-day visit to an island which is ten hours by plane and a couple hours in jetlag. Crazy? Not really, considering I was there to photograph the famous Caribbean Carnaval on the tiny Dutch Antilles island of Aruba. It’s the second-largest carnaval celebration in the whole caribbean and famous for its laid-back atmosphere and accessibility.
And boy was it worth the trip! Two days of sunny and happy people parading the streets of both major towns on the island: the very easy-goinh parade on Saturday in San-Nicolas and the massive and crowded Sunday main event in Oranjestad. Hours and hours of incredibly colorful people and costumes. I don’t think I’ve seen so many feathers. I guess the images speak for themselves, please enjoy and make sure you’re in the neighborhood next year!

This one came in a bit late. My article on Caribbean Island Hopping for the Belgium Feeling Magazine (a glossy which is also available in the Netherlands) was published last year October. The travel-report focussus on travelling between Caribbean Islands like Saba, St.Maarten/St.Martin, St.Eustatius, Tortola, Antigua and Dominica.
