Budapest and falconers

Image
I always loved the atmosphere of Central Europe, food, music and colors. Last year, I had to, at least for one day, again visit the beautiful Budapest ... Spring Day, Budapest warm and elegant, full of people and foreign languages. Violinists on roofs of fortresses, falcons around the old luxury Catholic cathedrals, street sellers of watercolors-Hungarian bukinists. Bakery shops, coffee, cakes, floral arrangements and heavy smell of Hungary.

OHRID, THE PEARL OF THE BALKANS

Image
Ohrid is a city that we often forget. We know it's nice and it's there, but we're not even aware of what it means for these spaces.Ohrid is glittering. Blue is from the water and the sky, and is aged with enviable altitudes and rocks. The postcard of Ohrid is made up of churches, all 365 days a year. Such, he is crowned as an oasis of Orthodoxy and peace, on the bastion of the chopped south and eastern Europe. Because of the contamination of the outline of the church dome in the water, the air of peace and tranquility.Ohrid is a real tourist city, very similar to those towns by the sea for which we give it several hundred euros to spend a few hours, tired of the road and visiting other important places of some France, Italy ... And like, we saw that city, we were, well, we can even advise others where it is and what needs to be seen. But Ohrid, unlike those cities, offers a sense of desperation: there you are, and you are not. You're abroad, and at home. And there is n...

Kosice i elegancija Slovacke

Image
Kosice, drugi grad po velicini u Slovackoj, veoma blizu madjarske granice. Jezik potpuno razumljiv nama. Ljudi obuceni odmereno elegantno, prefinjeno. Mnogo citaca na klupama, tek vencani parovi posle katolicke ceremonije u gotskoj katedrali Sv Elizabete, fotografisu se, bez neke velike pompe I po nepisanom pravilu kod fontane ispred zgrade gradskog pozorista. Centar grada presecen tramvajskom prugom koja je ostala samo, okicen luksuznim balkonima i okruzen originalnim kafe barovima. Ovaj grad ima svoj miran otmeni zivot, daleko od vrtoglavice juga i hladnoce severa Evrope. http://www.holiday-photos.net/country/slovakia/Kosice/

Kako sam udahnula Bec

Image
Bec - ulazak Ulazak i isti utisak kao pre 10 godina i dolaska iz razvratne Francuske. Hladan i aristokratski Bec. Bec - dan I ili kako mi se otvorio becki dan Jutro i osecaj koji prija. Dok otvaram prozor vidim dvoje uzurbanih. Lep par. On, kao i svi njegovog pola u Becu, nosi kratak crni elegantan kaputic, boemski sal oko vrata i naravno naocare za vid sa tankim elegantnim okvirom. Lap top u ruci. Drze se za ruke. Lepa je, mrsava i ima dugu svetlu kosu, ne nordijsku-austrijsku. Kada su skrenuli sa Renweg Strasse u moju ulicu, on je brzo privuce i poljubi. Sladak poljubac pre austrijskog precizno isplaniranog radnog dana... Bec je graciozan bas kao svaka fasada uzanih `mediteranskih` ulica najjuzeg centra. Kazu, imao je iste graditelje kao Milano. Pogled na Bec iz svakog ugla odaje srz evropskog elitizma. Mozart je u vazduhu i Beclije jednostavno ne dozvoljavaju da to zanemarimo. Prodaju ga u svim mogucim bocicama i na svim soljama, ali i kroz najsladji ukus worldwide poznatih kugli. ...

Carreta, origano i cvece purpura

Image
Carreta, Carreta Zante (Zakynthos) is a rich island. Zante's wealth is palm trees and lijanderers, steep white walls and turquoise sea, the most beautiful sunset that the Greeks sell elegantly along with the hound blue patlidzan and absolute tzatziki. It's rich with turtles, which will take your whole attention, because they will be around you, on prospectus, in the posters, in placards for escursions from 15 to 95 euros, to small sweet magnesons for hairdressers. The Carthagoras (Carreta Carreta!) Takes us through life, the Indians claim. She had been settled in Laganas, the spice of the little sweet drunken Britons. Mama Carreta is naively hoping that some turtle will succeed in getting water from the sand, and that she will avoid the stabbing of a parasol and a flip flop rebuilt by a thick drunk Liverpool woman. Hope of our Carnot is under question. Of the 1000 successors, only one swims into the Ionian Sea-the origin of life, at least for me, this year. The c...
