Maybe it is suffocating, and in the end you can`t force somebody to feel something. They either do or they don`t.

?Love?
Tunisia
First on if u can avoid flying low cost do it. It`s really a nag when a queer steward can only speak Arabic and anything you say he responds with a stupid smile.
We went and stayed at Orient Palace in Sousse, really nice place, accommodations are excellent. Not really a five star place but more of a cool four. If you `re there (in Sousse) don`t miss out on visiting the
Port El Kantaoui
The camels are super sweet and riding the jeeps in the desert is a thing of its own. Super sweet.
Otherwise people are the same all over the world. Wherever you go they want to rip you off. The only difference is in the way they do it. If you got to Tunisia negotiate, bargain and negotiate some more or you`ll come home with no money at all.
We stayed at the hotel with a group of Romanian tourists from Bucharest who we were somewhat afraid of. But they turned out ok, invisible even. The most annoying were the Hungarians who I hoped would be more civilized. But no. They were loud they were annoying and they were everywhere.
So all in all it was a trip worth taking, seeing something new, at times beautiful even but I won`t go back there.

First article
First of all this will be no journal. I don`t have the time for it nor do i have sufficient patience to write an article every day. Therefore people visiting this blog will only encounter bits and pieces of my life... things that are out of the ordinary or things that just lead me on my way to see this world as it is. And yes opinions on this and that and moments that change my life or my view of it.
Pessimists are optimists well informed!
That`s why i don`t take nothing for granted and i only belive what i see for myself.
I don`t dare go into such complicated subjects as were : talking about how people are. You will see now and then that i`ll be dissapointed in them but be not surprised. This the way they are. Be prepared and whatch the signs(they tell you a lot)!
My biggest wish on this planet (besides winning the lottery) is to have the chance and opportunity to travel... and travel a lot i shall. I want to see everything there is to be seen. I am not gealous of other people, i swear. Only this one thing makes me jealous : If everyone gets to see the world and i don`t. It wouldn`t be fair to be stuck in one place. No one should be.
Let` say that this summer is somewhat the cornerstone of my life. Sitting on it and looking back makes no sense although i regret none of what has happened. But sitting on it and looking foward, setting goals and getting them accomplished is a pretty ok thing to do. Why now?
Maybe because now i feel more at peace with the world then ever! Maybe because i am so madly and sincerely in love or maybe because this is the first summer i really get to travel after a long and exhausting year!
My first journey was an intersting one.... a road trip with my favourite ally Isti. Places we visited in chronological order : Sighisoara, Slimnic, Sibiu, Balea Lac, Bran, Brasov, Miercurea Ciuc, Bucin, Lacul Rosu, Cheile Bicazului, Piatra Neamt, Szarhegy, Ditro and home! Quite a long week wasn`t it? I will not tell you about all of them... only that it was very good, a nice experience . The most beautiful town was Sibiu and the most beautiful place was Balea Lac. Go there!
What have i learnt? That Romania is beautiful. You don`t need see it as Romania, but look at it from the perspective of the tourist or the lens of a camera wich captures only things that you like and want to see. A camera wich leaves the problems, hurts and all negative things out of the picture it takes! And yes these photographs will follow or you have already seen them here!
