Somewhere during the last days of September, I got on a plane with my brother with destination Venice, Italy. This is the second time I’m visiting Italy this year. In January Rome and now Venice. I’ve been traveling a lot this year. I can’t say I didn’t enjoy it, I always wanted to “see the world”, but after returning from Rotterdam, last summer, I’m beginning to feel anxious only at the thought of leaving again. Rotterdam took it’s toll on my personal comfort and it’s gonna take a while till I will be happy to travel again.Nevertheless once I was on the plane, I was alright. The ride was smooth and the view just before landing was breathtaking: an endless waterline full of small boats with their sails glittering in the orange sunset. The airfield was just a few feet away from the water.
We checked in at a nice hotel in a small town near Venice and after a 20 minutes bus ride we were there: a big square filled with buses and cars. The place where land ended and water began. As the whole city is built on pylons over the water, the only way to get around Venice is trough its maze of narrow streets and channels. From now on we either walked or took a boat to get us from one place to another. It took us a while to get accustomed before we started to explore Venice. In the two days we would walk in and out of Venice, visit the islands and enter lots souvenir shops.

Not so long time ago, somewhere last month I’ve had some quality time with two of my best friends, members of the RZR[1] group :D. I’m rarely going to the village museum. I’ve seen it all so many times, so I find it uninteresting. Perhaps I’m just missing the right crowd :).
Robert made his way to Sibiu for Roxi’s birthday and after a good night (and a good part of the day) we managed to get there.
It was also the first time in years since I’ve last used the city’s public transportation services. I don’t have really a need for it as it only takes me 45 minutes from one end of the city to the other and I prefer to walk, just me, my thoughts and my iPod :D.
