Push off, and sitting well in order to smite the sounding furrows; for my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset, and the baths of all the western stars, until I die.

Well, this time is Athens, the visit which i made back-to-back with my Santorini trip. Way back 800 - 146BC, Greece saw the rise of a new civilization that transformed the ancient world and its influence has lasted to the present day. You must have heard of Zeus, Sparta, Athens, the first olympic, democracy, Plato, Aristotle and Socrates, to name a few. Nowadays, the major site left to see the

Snapshots taken at the Constitution Square, Bucharest during the 550th anniversary celebration of the Capital. It was a commendable effort and an interesting idea to have people in traditioal costumes wandering in the main square, which created the surrounding as if u were living in the 18th century.

Some said it was not appealing enough, others commented it was not as good as the Confession tour, the rest said her outfits were not as great as in the previous years and etc ..

Picturesque and serene place with fun and great company. What can u ask more? We were lucky to have Antonio who lives with his partner, running a chic hotel in Oia town.

Taking water taxi to cruise the River Thames, perhaps, one of the cheapest and best ways to see London although it only touches small part of the capital. Flowing thru Southern London, the Thames stretches over 300 km, cutting across other major towns in England and passing by some of the major landmarks like London Eye and Westminster. From Ted's place, we walked to the Greenland Dock and the

A weekend excursion to Varna, a coastal town of the Blacksea coast in Bulgaria. Perhaps not really a good period to go there in May as it was still cold and occasionally raining. Que sera sera as I will go again in Summer. After all, Varna is just 300 ++ km from the border ....... We decided to hit the road early in the morning and the driver was again, me.

Indeed, it was a short trip to Venice due to another last minute rendezvous in Bucharest. What ashame to have such a short sojourn in such a lovely and romantic place. Within less than 24 hours, I could only see the silhouette of San Marco square and the small labyrinth to the hotel. The very next day, I was literally running to Rialto to catch the water taxi to the airport. Venice ... I

It was quite impromptu when i decided to escape from my boredom to the epicentre of Europe recently. Yet, it was not in the least a typical holiday as others might think. Thus, the pics below don't represent the major landmarks (except the main plaza) in the capital but just some snapshots i took on my way to the "labyrinth". Here, I present you, the downtown Brussels, in retrospective images.

He was ... but not the vampire count from the gothic horror story ... he was Vlad Tepes the Draculea (pls read my first entry for details).This medieval citadel town was first settled by the Romans then the Saxon colonists in the 12th century.The central Sighisoara features a small medieval fortified town.

Istanbul needs no introduction. For 16 centuries it was a great imperial capital, first of the Byzantine Empire and then of the Ottoman sultans. Nowadays, Istanbul is a frenetic city filled with a wealth of culture, history, monuments and nightlife. There are more than 100 places worth visiting in Istanbul, thus one should spend not less than 4 days to give more justice to this magnificient

For the record, I have got nothing to do with the Dracula. The diabolic figure in the movie is a myth after all. Since I use the name for my blog, I think it would be fair to give some background about who the real Dracula is.
