Boracay sunset
Every day, God gives us, as well as the sun,
a moment when it is possible to change anything
that is causing us unhappiness.
The magic moment is the moment when
a ' yes' or 'no' can change our whole existence.
Every day, we try to pretend that we do not see
that moment, that it does not exist,
that today is the same as yesterday
and that tomorrow will be the same too.
However, anyone who pays close attention to
his day will discover the magic moment.
It might be hidden in the instant
that we put the keys in the door in the morning,
in the moment of silence after supper,
in the thousand and one things
that appear to us to be the same.
This moment exists, a moment in which
all the strength of the stars flows through us
and allows us to perform miracles.

La Vie En Rose

The past year have brought me to lands that i've never ever imagined i would be abe to go to. Traipsing around the cobbledstone streets of Prague and Ljubljana bought about feelings of nostalgia, of being taken back in time and yet being absolutely swept off my feet by their beauty , that despite the wear and tear bought about by time itself, has still been preserved in one way or another. One that definitely carved its niche in my most unforgettable archive of travels is the surreal town of Bled. Simply amazing. I had been captivated by the place the moment i cast my eyes on it in photographs, by the time i was there, i was just simply, utterly dumbfounded, speechless. To borrow that line from one of my fave films...." You had me at hello... ", that's Bled for me.

Europe has definitely got me under his skin and i don't think i wanna shake him off my system. I would love to see more of Central Europe, much more of those on the Eastern part, hopefully this year. The thought of traipsing down on more cobbledstones streets, visiting medieval towns and castles, having a taste of local delicacies and of course meeting the locals and having the chance to observe and experience other cultures, just sends my heart into flutter. Ahh...well i could only look forward to more VINI, VIDI, VICI this year.

Till then...........................
The roller- coaster is my life;
life is a fast, dizzying game;
life is a parachute jump;
it's taking chances, falling over
and getting up again;
it's mountaineering;
it's wanting to get to the very top of yourself
and feeling angry and dissatisfied
when you don't manage it.
