Onboard the Hiram Bingham - Journey to Machu Picchu | by Ann Street Studio.

If there’s one thing that’s still on my list - it’s taking a luxurious vintage train ride through beautiful, rolling landscape. I’ve always wanted to go onboard the Orient Express, but the Hiram Bingham journey looks seriously enviable as well. Once again, these photographs, much like most of the travel photography from Ann Street Studio, fill my heart with a severe case of wanderlust.

Ah, well.. Maybe one day..

Head over to Ann Street Studio to read all about their journey, plus view more images (including a stunning cinemagraph right at the top of the page).

Friday, I’m in Love | Splendid Origami Creations by Wenche Lise.

Oh, what wonderful things some people can do with a simple piece of paper. Two years ago, Wenche Lise Fossland (@wenlise_fold) from Namsos, Norway, folded her first a paper origami on a family trip to France, and didn’t stop folding after that. Her lovely creations are available for our viewing pleasure on Instagram . If you’re in love with these origami creatures in their surreal settings as much as I am, make sure you follow and double tap on Instagram!
