  • Blind date, an evening in Dublin (Ireland).

    Abnormal meeting place for a blind date The most original place where I had a blind date was the inner courtyard of the castle one evening in Dublin. To be precise, we met under the flag of Finland. You may wonder if with an Irish or a Finnish, no, with a Bolognese. It was in…

  • Visiting Petra with playful stray dogs

    I decided to spend 1 1/2 days to visit Petra. Eventually the time was less because of a physical problem. The Kings Road is a historic road in Jordan that has existed since ancient times and runs through it from north to south. It practically runs parallel to the Dead Sea and is obviously full…

  • Weekend in Bucharest; kicked out of restaurant

    My weekend in Bucharest in September 2024 was improvised and decided at the last minute, and as with my first time it involved a not-so-happy story, but this time I went alone.

  • Chicago in winter, performs best in cold weather

    Chicago in winter: the windy city I had always had it in my mind to see Chicago in winter. The metropolis on Lake Michigan, famous for its frigid climate being exposed to Arctic currents, so super cold and very windy. In my head I had the idea of visiting it just in winter. Also because…

Drivers and tour mates…

  • On your trip to Jordan, don’t miss Jerash

    Jerash Often not part of classic Jordan travel tours, while Jerash is a must-visit. Even the hour-long drive to get there from Amman was fun. The 15 bus(collective minivan) leaves when it is full. A little in and a little out of the door is a guy who organizes the ups and downs, calling for…

  • Sleeping in hostel, they all run away from me in Copenhagen

    Sleeping in hostel with mega snoring Among many, one of my most positive experiences in sleeping in hostels was in the capital of Denmark, but from the second day. I had the opportunity to visit Copenhagen during a solo weekend in April 2018. I liked the general, although what I remember most fondly was visiting…

  • Middle East trip, war alert

    I had long dreamed of a trip to the Middle East, which would later become one of my most popular areas. The why of the trip to the Middle East After a few years in which I had had to limit myself for various reasons, I had an incredible urge to discover some new countries,…
