An Enthusiastic Traveller

I will continue the sequence about my past journeys. I made a cup of green ice tea with jasmine and I'm ready to share the next story. Two years ago, in June 2014 I had the opportunity to attend this event in Stockholm organised by BEST. I remember I was accepted in the last moment. For this I had to postpone for autumn session one exam. But it was worth it. I don't regret anything. That week in Stockholm was memorable. That was my first flight. It was special because I was doing this alone. It gave me courage and confidence. Fluffy clouds There I met a lot of wonderful people. That was the moment I realized I should travel more. It was a full week with morning classes and parties until sunrise. Well.. in that time it was almost always day light. I remember I was woken up by the sun lights in the morning, and I was afraid I'm going to be late. But then I realized it was just 6 am in the morning and I had another two hours for sleep. Oh my God.. I did a lot of craz...

It's been a while since I didn't post anything. I didn't have what to write about. I haven't travelled anywhere since Düsseldorf and I thought to write something about my past journeys. I've been to Amsterdam in May. Even I stayed only two days I've wandered a lot around. It's nice to have someone with whom to share this experience. For me that's my best friend F. He came to Amsterdam for a conference meeting and I said: "Why not meeting there?".  And I bought the tickets. We do this kind of stuff a lot. So.. let's come back to my journey to Amsterdam. The weather was great. I was afraid it will rain but the sun was on my side. I will be honest and say that I didn't try any stuff for what Amsterdam is known. I wasn't tempted to do that. Instead I've tried the best apple pie. I've found a nice place ("Back to black") where I had a delicious sweet breakfast. I will definitely go back. What else? I was i...

The adventures I was talking in the previous post were waiting me in Düsseldorf. I just came back from my trip and I wanted to write down the experience I had. First challenge: find the train station in the airport. We went to the information desk to ask for directions and the man told us to take the elevator to -1 and from there follow the signs. Guess what.. At -1 was the parking station without any obvious signs to a train station. Good.. Let's go to -2, maybe it's there. Surprise.. No signs, only parking station. Let's try to 0 (we were at 1st floor at the beginning). Finally we saw clear signs to the train station, which was at -1. Second challenge: train tickets. I've done some research before our arrival and a ticket for 4 trips was the best combination for us. We were very sure we selected the tickets for adults, instead we ended up with tickets for children. We used twice those tickets on the idea that 4 tickets for children = 2 for adults. Before movin...

This is my first article and it's for my dearest friend, Andra. So, let's start. How do I manage to travel light? It wasn't like this from the beginning. I used to carry a lot of useless things with me. I think all the experiences I had thought me that material things are less important than the spiritual ones. I started to travel with only one bag last year. It was the weekend in Paris. It was amazing. I felt like I had wings to fly. Anyway.. How do I pack? It's very simple. I count the days, how many clothes I need and I try to put only things that I will wear. I don't want to bring with me my whole wardrobe. Also the toiletry list is short. I don't need a lot of products in order to take care of my body. I guess all comes with the time and the way you feel. I always wanted to be able to put all my things in one suitcase and move to another place. At least I can do this when I travel. I got to go. I need to pack. New adventures are waiting for  me.
