For 2018, I decided to try the picture a day project with a special focus on my adorable Yorkie, Hera. I am fully aware that I will not be able to actually take a picture of her everyday unless I decide not to travel this year, but I will do my best. I gave up Instagram after I read their privacy policy a bit more closely, so this is where you will find my pictures (also on flickr since I haven't reread their privacy policy recently).
