I prefer to stay away from alcohol, as much as possible, because if you are candid, as you get older, any guilty “pleasure” can become faulty. I have written something relevant here, and don’t want to contribute to the ranking. However, if I am choosing, from time to time, to drink something, I am going…

Long flights and their charm
Many say that prefer to avoid long flights, but without adhering to them, you can’t explore the world at its fullest. I like them. Well, not the process itself, but the opportunities, in some occasions. In many cases, by night, it is a challenge, as I can’t sleep, the space is narrow, so not the…
Education, and its importance in shaping the world
At the end of 2025, as you already might have read, I’ve travelled to Cape Town. A sublime vacation, but with a topping of acknowledging this city is maybe the best Africa has to offer. Not by accident, then, here it is the most renewed university on this continent. And Cape Town it is especially…
PHOTO | Is Tbilisi, Georgia, a city worth visiting?
Short answer: Yes! Tbilisi is a place to experience. Normally, I wouldn’t have planned a vacation there, even a short one, but back in 2019, a good friend of mine, footballer Andrei Ciolacu, played in the Georgian championship, so I took advantage of the context and paid him a four-day visit, to the most exotic…
PHOTO | Banska Bystrica, a hidden gem in Central Europe
Exploring places where few choose to go for vacation is one of the biggest pleasures of my life. 2020 was an year when I could explore this hobby as it fullest. Just COVID-19 was about to severely hit Europe, I took advantage of me being relocated for work in Budapest, Hungary, and decided to leverage…
Is Norway an expensive country?
Funny enough, I saw recently a map of the European countries with the word Japanese people are associating each. There, for Norway the word was expensive. It is true also, that Norway is usually perceived in general as a very, if not at least, expensive country. Is that true? I will tell you what my…
Bergen, great place to be for the New Years Eve!
Bergen, the former capital of medieval Norway, and the current second largest city, is a key location if you want to experience the Nordic country at its finest. Said to be the rainiest location in Europe (!!!), Bergen really has a lot to offer. When we chose to spend a third New Years Eve in…
Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
It is a statement, but is not my creation, or my final conclusion. Cape Town is really regarded as one of the most beautiful cities in the world to visit, and being there for more than one week helped in drawing my own opinions. It is not easy to choose such a destination, especially when…
How to tackle the Romanian mountains
The Carpathian Mountains are quite famous, and many foreigners, when hearing of Romania, think of idyllic rocky landscapes and beautiful mountain villages. In part, they know the essential, but when you want to enter into details, things are not as simple as they appear. First hand, Romania doesn’t had a functional transportation network, regardless of…
Seychelles, the complete journey for a perfect experience
Remember I have already shared a big hunch of our honeymoon in Seychelles, but also mentioned that the two-weeks experience cannot be efficiently resumed in one single post. I’ve preferred to expose La Digue separately, for a better understanding of what Seychelles is like, but of course, the rest of the experience needs to be…
