Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Period. I still remember how astonished I was when I finally got to walk Charles Bridge and see the famous buildings with spires and red roofs. Naturally, the spires and roofs are better to see from above, so I tried to go to as many viewpoints as possible. So Read More

Things to do in Barcelona for free
Barcelona is one of my favorites. It has everything in one place: yummy food, history, architecture, beaches and sunny days 😊 A perfect city in all senses 😊 But there is a big disadvantage here: entrance fees to tourist sites can be too expensive.

Traditional Turkish food: what to eat in Istanbul
I love traditional Turkish food! The cuisine of this country is one of the most delicious in this world! And I am not exaggerating 😊 There are some options for vegetarians, but Istanbul is a paradise for meat lovers, and the meat is mainly lamb and beef.
