Literally .For 2 months now I have no spoon in the whole house. I either forget or I’m to lazy to buy and it makes things rather difficult for me., especially regarding eating.
Now what was I saying ? Oh yeah, pigeons in Istanbul . Lots of them.
I was kind of impressed with Istanbul, It’s so crowded and chaotic, like a huge market. I found it interesting that everywhere I went to buy something the people insisted on negotiating. So it was very strange when I walk into a hi-tech photo equipment shop the salesman started to negotiate with me for a (actualy very expensive) tripod that I eventually never bought.
But what shocked me in the worse kind of way was the fact that internet is censored there. I tried to acces a youtube link and this came onscreen .
Since the last few weeks and especially this week the traffic from Belgium has surpassed the one from Romania (I’d really like to know why) maybe it’s a good time for this post.
So ever since I watched the movie I had this big urge to visit Belgium’s best preserved medieval town. It wasn’t that the movie tried to make a big impression of it (in fact if you follow the dialogues it’s the other way around), however the directing and soundtrack made sure it stayed in your head forever. So since I didn’t have many options on flights returning from Iceland I had to get a Wizz Air (btw I will never ever fly this airline again) from Bruxelles 2 days after I arrived in Koln. And my best option was to spend these days in this town that I always wanted to visit.
Bruges was beautiful. Peaceful, old, romantic in some way but commercial in another.A lot of chocolate in different shapes and sizes some of theme really obscene :). It even had the swans like the movie said. And Alcoves. That was the right word.. Alcoves?
and sometimes there are these moments between night and day when the city becomes one of the most surreal and beautiful image one can imagine..
Barcelona
I think I’m going to switch to English from now on, no point in having half the visitors from outside the country and not understand one word. Besides, this may keep my parents from reading something perhaps compromising 🙂 . Comments are welcomed in any language.
Anyway, some photos from Rome. Rome was the first of the 3 major cities I stayed in last month (a lot of other small ones). In my opinion it’s not the nicest place on earth (good for photos nevertheless), however it has some stunning nearby towns that you won’t find anywhere else.
The color photos in another post.

Dintre toate orasele pe care le-am vizitat pana acum, Amsterdamul reprezinta de departe orasul depsre care pot arata mult mai putin decat as putea spune. Pe de o parte pentru ca din punct de vedere fotografic necesita o abordare complet diferita de cea cu care eram obisnuit pana acum, o abordare pe care momentan nu o am, sau nu o stapanesc. Pe de alta parte pentru ca orasul in sine este absolut fantastic si paradoxal.
O sa revin cu o prezentare mai pe larg a orasului, acum e tarziu. Cateva fotografii (sau ce o fi iesit) de inceput.
In mod normal ar fi trebuit sa impart in 3 parti aceste ultime fotografii din Praga.Insa asta s-ar putea sa fie ultimul meu post pe o perioada nedeterminata de timp. So you know… enjoy.
Pentru ca ai aparut cateva fotografii noi am schimbat titlul threadului in ceva mai reprezentativ. Cum fac de obicei, inspirandu-ma din ce mai ascult in momentul respectiv in casti 🙂 . Dar da, tot Praga.
O serie foto de care uitasem. Al 2-lea oras al Romaniei care a reusit sa ma uimeasca (in bine) , la ani lumina distanta din multe puncte de vedere de Bucuresti.
