Journey around the world
In the recent years, I was able to visit many countries as part of my study but also out of interest. Sometimes alone but also with friends. Many pictures were taken during these trips and a selection is made to give an impression of the work I do as a geologist.
Cyprus is situated in the easternmost part of the Mediterranean, around 80 miles from Turkey in the north, around 100 miles from the coasts of Syria and Lebanon to the east and, to the south, around 300 miles from Egypt and Israel.The well-preserved nature of the Troodos ophiolite and its surrounding and adjacent units has made it a target for study over a number of years.
