Gorgeous Greece

In these hot summer days I wish I was in Greece. I imagine that big beach, sand, clean sea, just wish I was there. All day lying around on the beach and in the evening to enjoy Greek music and their way of entertaining. I just like it and I wish right now get to beam there.


If i would be there, i would visit places like Santorini and I wouldn't miss sunset there. Amazing Zakynthos with beautiful beach is the place where I would like to relax on the beach and after that party until the morning :) I wouldn't miss Meteora Monasteries, unique place in Greece, the largest and most important complexe of Eastern Orthodox monasteries. It's built on natural sandstone rock pillars in central Greece. After that I would taste Greece vine. There is so many vineyard in Greece and I think it's bad mistake if I don't taste vine there :) The Pelion is place billed as the Greek Tuscany, this region has it all, lush countryside, amazing beaches, character-packed villages and superb treks. Who wouldn't like to enjoy in this  indescribable place?!


Mykonos island for partying all night, yes, that's why I like Greece. Mykonos is the Greek island, known tourist destination, very popular among young people because of the vibrant nightlife. It's the party capital of the Greek summertime. 
The six core Ionian islands, shepherding their satellites down the west coast of the mainland, float on the haze of the Ionian Sea, their lush green contours, a result of heavy winter rains, coming as a shock to those more used to the stark outlines of the Aegean. The east and north Aegean are the most visited islands. Yet the existence of magnificent beaches, dramatic mountain scenery, interesting sights and ample facilities makes them a highly attractive region of Greece to explore.



Crete is another Greek island with gorgeous beach but they say when you're on the island you don't have feeling like you're on the island at all but rather a substantial land in its own right. With enough land for agriculture (and some surprisingly good vineyards), it’s one of the few Greek islands that could probably support itself without visitors.


After my time on the beach, tasting vines, enjoying food I would explore Greek history, mythology, architecture and I would go to Athen. It's the city that happened two and a half thousand years ago. It has history, I mean story and I think it's so interesting to visit place like this where you can still, after all that time see people that once lived there, that buildings remainds of life before. That's amazing and inspiring place that I would be shure to visit.

Hope you like my view of Greece and the places that are interesting and must visit. Someday I will be there, but until then I will write my dreams of places and amazing countries I wish I could visit. :)

Places to go (part 1)

As everybody, I have list of places where I want to go. I would like to travel all around the world and I will :) Places where I want to go: 


PARIS

Because it's the world centre of art, fashion, journalism, food, music, festivals. It has number of museums, theatres such as Louvre, Musee Picasso, Musee Rodin, Musee de Cluny. There are many of architectural masterpieces such as the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe and the Palace of Versailles. A city of culinary finesse, it has 70 Michelin-stared restaurants, more than any other city in the world. Paris has a large number of high-end fashion boutiques, and many designers have their flagship stores in the  city, such as Louis Vuitton's store, Christian Dior's store, Sephora's store. Printemps has the largest shoe and beauty depatments in Europe. 


MOSCOW

People always ask me why do I love Russia, Moscow, it's very cold country and what I like there? I always say: ''It's love''. I know that Russia is cold and not friendly country (it seems like that) but i like it. I love winter and perhaps that's the reason I want to go to Russia. Main reason is Fjodor Mihajlovič Dostojevski, my favourite writer and because of him and his description in his books I love Russia. It's very big country with Moscow as capital city. Moscow is the main political, economic, cultural centre of Russia. Moscow has the second largest community of bilionaires in the world and it's also 5th largest city proper in the world. Moscow is well known as the site of Saint Basil's Cathedral, with its elegant onion domes, as well as the Cathedral of Christ the Savior and the Seven Sisters. The first Kremlin was built in the middle of the twelfth century. One of the most notable art museums in Moscow is the Treryakov Gallery, which was founded by Pavel Treryakov, a wealthy patron of the arts who donated a large private collection to the city. Moscow is also the heart of the Russian performing arts, including ballet and film. There are 93 theatres, 132 cinemas and 24 concert halls in Moscow. I would really like to go there and enjoy in this beautiful city, full of art and magic.



LONDON

It's global city with strengths in arts, commerce, education, entertainment, fashion, finance, healthcare, media, tourism etc. London is the world cultural capital. It's the worlds most-visited city. London has 43 universities and form the largest concentration of higher education in Europe. It's the first city that host the modern Summer Olympic Games three times. London contains four World Heritage Sites: the Towe of London, Kew Gardens, Palace of Westminster, Westminster Abbey and St Margaret's Church. Other famous landmarks include Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, Piccadilly Circus, St Paul's Catherdral, Tower Bridge, Trafalgar Square and The Shard. It has numerous museums, galleries, libraries, sporting events and other cultural institutions including the British Museum, National Gallery, Tate Modern, British Library and 40 West End theatres. London is special because of his architecture, art, culture and royal families, I like it and I want to visit London :)

Visit Bosnia and Herzegovina

If you like adventures, history, summer or winter, autumn or spring, every part of year you can come to this wonderful country named Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Firstly some main informations about this country: capital city is Sarajevo, much of Bosnia and Herzegovina is mountainous with valleys. The country's main rivers are the Bosnia, the Drina, the Neretva, the Sava and The Vrbas. 




Bosnia and Herzegovina is heart shaped country in Southeastern Europe. This country is mostly mountainous and much of the landscape is covered with forests. That is so atractive for people who like adventures and camping.



Architecture is amazing because there are lots of religious buildings. You can find Catholic, Orthodox and Islamic buildings throughout the country. An unusual religious monument is the ''stećak'', a medieval tombstone. In the capital city, Sarajevo you can find monuments from the Ottoman and Austrian-Hungarian eras that stand together with buildings from twentieth century. 


Much reconstruction has taken place since the end of the civil war (1992-95). One notable example is the Old Bridge at Mostar, orginally built in 1566 and destroyed in 1993. The Old Bridge Area of the Old City of Mostar was added to the World Heritage List in 2005. 








The main ethnic groups in Bosnia and Herzegovina speak Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian language. 



In the winter you can enjoy in skiing in the mountains in Bosnia and Herzegovina. You shouldn't miss Bjelašnica mountain that was used in winter Olympics during the 1984. The steepest of Bjelašnica’s slopes from 2,000 meters to 1,200 meters at its base. You should visit Jahorina, another great mountain near Sarajevo. The fabulous thing about Jahorina is the learner-friendly environment. Whether you are very skilled or just starting out, you can hire an instructor to fine-tune your skills at some of the best trails in Eastern Europe. There are over 20 km of tracks at your disposal for skiers at any level, so Jahorina has trails for everyone.

Igman mountain is the shortest of all the mountains in Sarajevo, measuring up at 1,502 meters or 4,928 feet. If you plan on traveling with children, you’ll appreciate their kid-friendly slopes and trails. Along with the other two mountains of Bjelasnica and Jahorina, Igman mountain was the location of the 1984 Winter Olympics.



The cuisine of Bosnia and Herzegovina is influenced by its Balkan neighbours.Traditional food includes bread, soups, stews, kebabs, cevapcici (minced meat sausages), stuffed leaves (dolma and sarma) and stuffed peppers. Pie, for example, meat, cheese and spinach is a favourite dish. Side dishes, such as sour cabbage, tomato and onion salad and yoghurt, are often served. Desserts eaten are fruit, pancakes, cakes and pastries. Coffee is preferred strong with sugar. Both wine and beer are produced locally. 



It's amazing country where you can see different religion building very close to each other. It's country that has turbulent past but still has beauty and places where you can relax and enjoy in the nature. When you come to this country every building will tell you the story that will try to keep you and to bring you in the past. It's worth your time and I guarantee that you will enjoy in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
