At around 3:15 pm, when I arrived in Barcelona, Placa de Catalunya was like an anthill. So, I confirm what is being said about the nightlife in Barcelona: it starts around 02:00 and ends at sunrise. I really liked the small, winding streets between the Ramblas. So much so that I enjoyed wandering through them dozens of times. Port Vell is fascinating. Hundreds of tourists follow Christopher Columbus’ advice eve ...
Only now, having arrived in Valencia, do I realize how hectic and lively Barcelona is. Valencia is an old city, bohemian and full of history. The tourist city is divided into 4: “Congress Center”, “Historical Center”, “City of arts and science” and “Royal Marina and beach”. Gothic cathedrals and medieval towers contrast with modern buildings and museums. I only stayed here for 1 day, but it was enough to feel the spirit of the pl ...
In a lifetime you walk around the world 3 times, you eat 30 tons of food, you drink 9000 cups of coffee, you work for 10 years, you sleep for 20 years, you stay in the bathroom for 3 years, you are stuck in traffic for 7 months, 12 years you spend in front of the TV, of which 19 days looking for the remote control, only 1/5 of your life you really live it. Live your life!
Berlin can be defined as the city of black and white. It is made up of luxurious areas, business buildings, imposing cathedrals, clean streets but also not very pleasant areas, where the imprint of the war can still be seen. The city went through extreme periods: fascism, communism. It was 90% destroyed and rebuilt after World War II. The Berlin Wall is still standing. In fact, the wall was used only to slow the population from the ...
Thank you, dears, for an amazing childhood!
Jiu Valley. 2008. Here everything is about coal mines. There is nothing else. If you were born in the Jiu Valley, or in any other mining area in Romania, most likely your father is a miner and your mother a housewife. You also have 2-3 brothers and you’ve got only one future: with the pickaxe in their hand, working day and night. Poverty dominates. Maybe a controlled poverty, who knows? If you were born in his area, you have no alternative. Some ...
At the age of 24, after you have finished a college and you are somehow ready to get to work, you wonder what path to follow? Will you want to be hired by a large corporation or will you start your own business? Employee? The strongest argument of being an employee is the fixed salary, but you have to work for that. You must be at work for at least 8 hours every day. You have to be efficient, consolidate your place ...
How many times do you feel trapped in a forest full of predatory animals that want nothing more than to kill you so that they can survive? The worst thing is that that forest is surrounded by a huge fence and has a single gate, very small, hard to find. In case you were lucky and found the gate without being torn apart by the animals that haunt the whole forest, the show is not ending. You managed to get out of the fore ...
Warsaw is a city of architectural contrasts. The new combines with the old, the modern tries to hide the traces of communism. It is impressive how the city has risen every time it has risen and withstood dozens of bombings and foreign domination. Warsaw has always been reborn from its own ashes, becoming a stronger, richer, more beautiful city. If you visit Warsaw you have to walk through the Old Town. Completely ...
day 1: The Roadtrip We left Bucharest on Sunday at around 8 AM and incredibly, but in less than 15 minutes we were already out of town, on the road to Giurgiu. We make the first stop somewhere before customs, for food, bought snacks and other nonsense. We cross the bridge of friendship between Romania and Bulgaria, over 2km long. Somewhere on the right side after crossing the river, is the town of Ruse, the main port on the Danube f ...
