From Italy I've jumped on the ship to Patra Greece and then cought a stop to Athens. Honestly the ancient monuments were not much different than thous I found in Italy. Greeks most likely had a better sense of aesthetics. Roman constructions represented imperial power. This can also be projected on t http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/blog-431134.html Balkans Been many places I'd rather describe personally since I might be slightly disabled with defining the options for the access to this blog. In any case I'm having a chance to spend a night at a 3 star hotel and although it stinks in the restroom I'm still taking a great pleasure for such a comfort is truthfully a rarity for me these days. I suppose the last time I've updated this page was in Rimin http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Montenegro/Podgorica/blog-420469.html ItaliaSwiss YoHave to say that I've gotten a bit sloppy during the past couple weeks with updating the blog and connecting to the net in general. The reason behind it is that I've delved into the wild nature of Alps where I've found friends who don't like the net so much and their influence forced me to forget about it for a while. The pics will tell you more than I can describe verbally. Right now I'm in R http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Italy/Emilia-Romagna/Rimini/blog-414770.html TCS Bise turns out I did not manage to recover completely in Annecy. Taking a longer brake in Geneva mainly on the campground. And as my friend said you can hear everything here birds dogs frogs and people occasionally. I eat drink and I live well. The froggies disturb silence in the night so I have to drink for a good night sleeping cheers or cheerios one might say. Daccor c'est fini pour moi pour http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Switzerland/South-West/Geneva/blog-408088.html a cote des Alps Raining weather conditions convinced me to rest for a while in Annecy Little Venus of Alps. Indeed a lot of water here flowing from different directions... and wine which lags a bit my stay in France. Even though Annecy is not a very large city it has got chatoux and a lot of charming corners where globetrotters like me can taste local delicatessen. Meeting a lot of different interesting people http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/France/Rh-ne-Alpes/Annecy/blog-406885.html frankofiliak Bonjour Since Tuesday I reside in France currently writing from Nimes. There is a little 4day party going on which is about drinking and killing bulls. Fingers are shivering since I've mixed drinks the previous night doing fine just need another refreshment Before I've had a pleasure to visit Carcasonne a city that strikes with its medieval atmosphere and Montpelier cite de jeunese w http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/France/Languedoc-Roussillon/N-mes/Lasalle/blog-403252.html Barcelona On Thursday I 've arrived to Barca. For some reason all of the hostels I choose are situated somewhere on the hill no me gusto. There is everything in Barcelona. It's more cosmopolitan and attracts a lot of tourists. Surprisingly there is plenty incomers from North America... south as well. There is a lot of fun here at any time. Today I'm going to check the beaches and then to see FC Barcelon http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Spain/Catalonia/Barcelona/blog-401390.html corazon de Andalucia Second day in Corodba... Mesquita Catherdral imprinted a thunderlike impression in my memory. The Catherdra in Sevilla was impressive as well 3rd largest in the world. The arte de eclesia is big here... have to catch a bus to Granada. Before Sevilla I stopped by Cadiz for a party. Making connections all the time... Hostels are inexpensive however every euro counts... have to make use of the th http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Spain/Andalusia/C-rdoba/blog-400211.html back in Spain 28 C in the shade. Arrive to Tarifa city of kite and windsurfing this morning. Can't really surf so I'm heading out north towards Cadiz. Today I will try out my camping gear. Money comes money goes... Morocco turned out to be a little more expensive than I expected and also there is no way I can count on the good will of Andalusian people. Traveling by thumb is just not common. Oh due to the he http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/Spain/Andalusia/Tarifa/blog-399413.html Spoko Morocco From Wednesday I hang out in Morocco. It's way different than Spain but what surprised me most is that the countrysides very much remind me of those from Poland. It's about 300 km from the desert however I want to stay faithful to my plan and go back to explore Spain... Africa is definitely something else and I'll definitely have to return here maybe a little more prepared.Right now I sit in the http://www.travelblog.org/Africa/Morocco/F-s-Boulemane/Sefrou/blog-399184.html takeoff 'Reise Fieber'... sitting on DIA listening to Rolling Stones.... in about an hour the journey begins. The backpack although nice and fancy is way too heavy 70lb... and there is really no room for reducing the weight I either get used to it or simply drop some of it on the way. Problem is my survival kit for 3 mths.... I belive I'll be gaining necessary wisdom along with the inevitable exper http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/United-States/Colorado/Denver/blog-398116.html
