Lhasa
This picture has been taken in the Barkhor Circuit, thousands of tibetan pilgrims are coming from all over Tibet to pray and chant. they are wearing their excuisite jewellery and colorful ethnic clothes. they are very very friendlyI am a Blonde Chick travelling around the world ; )
My friend Kat has saved me from certain death -in a form of chewing, salivating or tearing apart by eager children - when she purchased me at the Railway station in Kosice. She told me, that we are going to travel around the world.
I broke the news to her, that I have already traveled a lot - I hatched in China- , so I showed her my tag of origin.
You must understand something about Kat; she is very stubborn and she thinks that she knows everything. She told me that I was stiched rather than hatched...
She is wrong of course, but I have learned that there is no point of arguing with her, so I let it slide...
After she made me realize, that I didn't speak, nor understand a word on my native tongue ( mandarin she told me) we agreed, that she will call the shots...
( I don't know why! She does not speak Mandarin either!!!!) but I'm not here really to bitch about her.
( altho I could go on and on... trust me)
I'm here to tell you all the tales about
Sergeyev Posad
Russia, The Golden Ring. my travels.
So get yourself comfortable in your chair, as you are about to browse trough the pages of history and beauty ( mine of course!!!)
Good thing about Kat, is that she looooves photograpy. I mean she looooooves spending her time sitting, kneeling, lying, or geting in any sort of uncomfortable position on the ground and taking pictures. This can go on for hours and hours.( Oh sooo boooring....) She can spend hours and hooooouuuurrrs in search for the best angle. ( then she spends hours and hours uploading them to her blog - like if someone would care?????- I think her quest is to bore to death other people too)
What is the good thing about that? you might ask....,Why am I still with her traveling...? Well at least I can tell everyone, that I am a sophisticated little chick, who has a picture in many cool places! Indeed cool places, like the Great Wall of China, Kharakhorin- Genghis Khan's Ancient Capital, the Orthodox churches with their onion domes of Russia, or the Taj Mahal ...
The mausoleum built by Shah Jahan didn't bring us more luck, than it has to the long dead Mughal emperor.... But
Turpan
North West of China if you wouldn know, this place is used to be part of the Silk Road. I really liked it, because it was nice and warm : ) See the camel? we got on top for 2 seconds we thought we get a small walk around, but the guy just took a picture and that was it...( it's because we are tourists, so the local people has the right to overcharge us, because we have more money than they do... ) I am not going to do the same mistake Kat does, writing you about all the things that happened to us in the past year. If you are interested and want to read it, you can do it at her blog ( oh sooo boooring).
I rather show you my pics. Some of them are a bit unfocused (Kat told me that the important things are the places we visit, not me...) I beg to differ!!!!! but some pics are actually quiet good.
Althought I must say, that in real life I have a perfect bod, even thought on some of the pics I look a bit fat...
Enjoy!
