A list of my favorite movies set in Italy, with gorgeous Italian landscapes. I love Italy. It is so vibrant, sunny, bright and delicious. Unfortunately, I don’t go there as often as I want, but there is always a possibility to see it in movies. And directors definitely love Italy 🙂 I made a list of movies set in Italy, where the country is not just a background, but the […]
A local’s from Moldova guide on how to get and things to do in Tiraspol, Transnistria I have to admit that despite being born and raised in Moldova, like actually being a local here, Transnistria had never been on my radar. I knew that it existed, and from time to time there were rumours going around that life was actually easier and cheaper there, that’s why some of my school […]
Moscow is incredible and is packed with things to do and see! Seriously, if you don’t like Moscow, that’s because you don’t know it. I have been there many times, but my recent trip is the first time when I actually saw the city. So, here is my list of top 10 places to see in Moscow. Just for you to know, I had really hard time choosing these 10 […]
I am pretty sure that when it comes to Moldova, Chisinau is most likely the only place you have heard about. Maybe, someone mentioned Old Orhei and Transnistria, the country nobody recognises. It’s no wonder as we don’t have world-famous attractions that tourists flock to visit: we don’t have castles or palaces, we don’t have majestic mountains or important ruins, but we do have some beautiful places. Let’s talk here […]
So, is there vegan and vegetarian food in Moldova? The short answer is yes, and, frankly, the options are abundant. Of course, a lot depends on the chosen diet: some dishes contain dairy and eggs, others don’t, but, nevertheless there is food for everyone. Anyway, for vegetarians Moldova is a paradise as we have lots of very delicious egg or dairy based food 🙂 But let’s start with some interesting […]
December is always a tricky month to travel, usually weather-wise: the probability of rain or snow (depending on the destination) is high, it’s cold, you have to wear thick clothes, and so on. Still, December is the Christmas month, and who wouldn’t want to see in real life all those beautiful Christmassy pictures and postcards seen on the Internet? I certainly am one of these people, that’s why I went […]
Usually when I travel somewhere I research mostly places to visit, not places to eat, and this explains why I have been disappointed quite some times. But before I went to London this August, I decided to look for restaurants with good reviews. I made a selection of them, marked them on Google Maps, and actually went there. And I have to say that they lived up to my expectations. […]
My Paris travel tips will be very handy for first time visitors. To see Paris and die: do you agree with this? 🙂 I heard this expression when I was a kid, and I just had to see the city to understand the meaning. It is true, Paris is a beautiful city, though not everywhere, a city of love, history, and culture and home to some of the most iconic […]
When I was still studying at school, I dreamed of visiting Egypt (I am a huge fan of their ancient history) and London. I understand there is nothing in common between these two places, but dreams don’t have to be logical 🙂 So, I went to London in 2011, and … I was disappointed: everything was so expensive (especially considering my meager salary), it rained all the time, it was […]
Let’s admit it, when someone asks which city is the most affordable one to visit, London does not come to mind. It is famous for being extremely expensive, starting with food and ending with transportation. But what if I say that you can do London for free? I don’t mean that you will get free rides in the tube or you will not have to pay for your meals. I […]
