Mont Saint Michel

Dating a French is hard. Twinkling with my blue slavic eyes while asking him if we can go to Mont Saint Michel – easy peasy. So our trip through Normandie started here… at some pre-area of Mont Sant Michel which is salty as the sea level goes on and off so the sheeps eat the salty grass, make salty milk and cheese and special pre-salty … Continue reading Mont Saint Michel

Corsica – Île de Beauté

What a beautiful island! 🙂 Landed with AirCorsica some beautiful Thursday afternoon just shortly after French President Macron. My hotel was a splendid accommodation with a view on the Mediterranean. As my flight has been postponed couple of times, I decided – totally tired and exhausted – just to chill in my hotel and read the Corsica intro. The next morning I was totally fresh … Continue reading Corsica – Île de Beauté

Luxembourg

The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is a small landlocked country in western Europe. It is bordered by Belgium to the west and north, Germany to the east, and France to the south. Its capital, Luxembourg City, together with Brussels and Strasbourg, is one of the three official capitals of the European Union.  The repeated invasions by Germany, especially in World War II, resulted in the country’s strong will for mediation between France and Germany and, among other things, led to … Continue reading Luxembourg

Naples, Italy

Early morning flight for 25 EUR but it was totally worth it. 🙂 We woke up at 3:30 and landed to Naples just before 9:00. Upon our arrival we have soon noticed the chaotic city and how nobody respects the traffic lights. However, it took us one day to adjust. Our accommodation was in the city center in some old 19th century palace. However, there … Continue reading Naples, Italy

Porto, Portugal

Short one day trip from Lisbon to Porto! Not much time plus the rain, but oh boy, we enjoyed! 🙂 We rented a car and cross the country driving for almost 4 hours. We arrived to the hill where from you can beautifully sea the river Douro that flows into the Atlantic ocean. With its historical core which was proclaimed a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996 it is medieval and charming city and … Continue reading Porto, Portugal

Saint Omer and Nazi bunker visit, France

A weekend trip to northern France. 🙂 The region is called Pas de Calais. It has been named due to its famous Saint Audomar who brought Christianity to the area. The first stop was the main square where the Christmas market was held. We decided to have a glass of champagne (which was surprisingly a bit sour) and stroll down the food market to buy … Continue reading Saint Omer and Nazi bunker visit, France

Valencia, España

From a conference in Barcelona and visiting a friend, I was sent on a bus to meet another one 🙂 She picked me up at the bus station, brought her home and made the best paella valenciana ever! The best one! I arrived to Estacion del Norte in the city centre next to the Plaza de Toros de Valencia.  At Plaza de Tores you can find the … Continue reading Valencia, España

Manchester love, UK

They call you love in Manchester. The taxi driver, the lady at the cashmashine, your friend that recently moved to Manchester, the guy who wants randomly pay your drink at the bar etc… The vibe is so good.   I arrived a bit before midnight to the airport at needed to take the taxi to my hotel. I was happily surprised that Little Black Cab … Continue reading Manchester love, UK

Pillars of Light

The monks gave him the name John Savage. He as a savage for them, living with them in some abbey in the Northern England, raping him and beating. After this John would usually fall into epilepsy. Monks were calling it a devil’s attack. John escapes with his mysterious Maur man… somehow there is something about both of them being together. They are travelling around England … Continue reading Pillars of Light

Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegowina

In 2025    Looming that region in the last few years, brought me different perspectives. Appreciation for the cultural diversity but in the same time, where this sudden cultural diversity is common from? It hasn’t been there for centuries. It’s quite recent. Arrival was hard. There is almost no highway except for some kilometeres of the Corridor Vc, which is highly sponsored by EU and Russia … Continue reading Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegowina
