Before moving to London, when I was a tourist, I had a list of points of interest for every single trip in this city. Most of the times, the list was so long, that I never had the chance to tick even half of the items on the list. Now, ...
We built this city on rock and roll
First, there were british people. Then africans came over. And then jews. And then indians, sri lankas, jamaicans, chinese, arabs, turks, greeks and eastern europeans. Now, we live together in this colorful city based on immigrants. And that ...
Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it
I think everyone of us must go to Auschwitz at least once on their lifetime. Not because it’s an impressive place to visit, not because there are a lot of activities to do there, but because we have to learn about the past, so we won’t ...
Brits and Romania
Today was a nice day. I met 2 elderly Britons who were planning a vacation this summer in Transylvania. They said they were eager to see our villages, mountains and brown bears. Yes, we’ve got brown bears in Romania. I don’t know if the fact that P ...
Tourist in my own city
Have I told you how much I love London? Oh, I think yes. Many times. Hehe. Let me tell you one more time, but this time, as a resident. I have waited 10 years for this moment. Since I’ve stepped in this city, I knew I’ll move here, some day. ...

4000 meters
In 30 years I have gone through many “on the edge” moments. I had moments when the adrenaline pumped quite strongly through my veins, but nothing compares to sky diving. The first 3 seconds are indescribable. The feeling you get as soon as you get off th ...
Educate yourself
When a question about a certain topic pops up, google it. Watch movies and documentaries. When something sparks your interest, read about it. Read. Read. Read. Study. Learn. Stimulate your brain. Don’t just rely on school system. Educate that beautiful m ...
Journey Pub, one of my favourites venues
Yes, I admit: I’m addicted to travel. It’s like a drug to me. If I don’t leave the country once every 3-4 months, if I don’t even take the car and wander around Bucharest a bit, if I don’t change the landscape from time to time, I feel like I’m going ...
My first offline sunday
I did it! I stayed offline for 24 hours. No phone, no internet and no more crazy stuff. I solved some things around the house that I don’t think I would do if I was connected. I finished a book, saw a movie and went out for a walk. Btw, did you know t ...
