Welcome

Welcome to Architectolder. I want to share with you my travel experiences around the world. My journey began on April 15, 2019 when Notre Dame Paris burned nearly to the ground. The next day I googled the Cathedral, and was amazed at how beautiful it was. A few months later I started my Twitter account. I hope to bring to you photography of my travels that will awaken you to the beauty of European Architecture and Art. I hope you enjoy my blog and can support me on my travels.
