Bed bugs are creepy little buggers, they hide and come out to suck on our blood while we rest and sleep. They are often found in hotels, here and internationally. So if you travel and requires a hotel stay, be very cautious. We got bedbugs from a cheap hotel in London. Next morning they told us to change rooms because they were fumigating for bedbugs. Awesome huh?

Have you got the travel bug? I do! And this time, I’m going to travel to Sydney and some places around like Melbourne and Adelaide. I’ve never been there yet and I am sure this travel destination is amazing. I heard that Sydney has everything. Lovely beaches, great weather and is renowned as a dynamic and cosmopolitan city with great leisure.

Have you travelled to some cultural places in Europe? Not yet? Well then, it’s about time for you guys to explore the imperial cities of Europe like Budapest, Praque, Vienna and Berlin. The cities I mentioned are the four beautiful and historic Central European Capitals. These cities offers absolutely everything a traveller may want, culture, history, fun, hostels galore, luxury 5 star resorts, nightlife, scenery and many more.The list is endless. Due to Europe’s astronomical land mass, ultimate cultural diversity and density, Europe is difficult to sum up in a few words. So therefore, let me narrow down my list to two wonderful cities namely Berlin and Vienna.

Let’s start with Berlin – the capital city of Germany. The lively city of Berlin blends historic charm with contemporary flair. The place features both historic and modern city highlights such as the Gendarmenmarkt, the Charlottenburg Palace (Berlin’s most beautiful plaza), the Brandenburg Gate, the symbolic site of the German division, the Olympic Stadium and many many more. The cultural attractions include theaters and museums. With the range and quantity of restaurants on offer, eating out is a delight. The Tiergarten is Berlin’s central park and covers an area of more than 630 acres. This is an ideal place to recharge. For your accommodation, Hotels in Berlin offers accommodation from every category. From budget rates to 5 star luxury standard hotel. Even accommodation in the lower-price classes has to meet certain standards, with compliance being monitored by the authorities, and so, at all events, a minimum degree of comfort can be expected. I strongly recommend Hotels in Berlin to book your holiday accommodation.

Our next and last itinerary is Vienna. One of the great capital cities of Europe, Vienna has been home to the rulers of the Austria-Hungarian Empire and masters of classical music. History, art and beauty oozes from every street corner and alley way. Discover St. Stephen’s Cathedral, enjoy the Vienna Woods, or a just stroll through the narrow lanes of this unforgettable city. Walk in the footsteps of the Habsburgs, visit the splendid baroque Schönbrunn and Belvedere Palaces, or stroll along the magnificent Ring Boulevard and take a look at the heart of the former vast Habsburg empire, the Imperial Palace. Get a sense of the luster and glory of the old empire by visiting St. Stephen’s Cathedral, the Spanish Riding School, the Giant Ferris Wheel at the Prater, as well as the sarcophagi in the Imperial Vault. Vienna has more to offer…whether it’s the trendy scene or athletic action, wooded leisure oases or great beaches, whether you want to get married in Vienna or visit the city with your family, discover the city on a bicycle, or enjoy a wellness program – you are certain to find what you are looking for in this multi-faceted city. Have I made you curious? Discover more and visit the place. For your accommodation Hotels in Vienna offers accommodation to suit your taste and pocket. I highly suggest you book your accommodation online in Hotels in Vienna. Lowest price guaranteed, I swear

Four months have passed since I was with my mother in Paris. Due to lack of time, I was not able to publish our pictures on my gallery. My sister from Orlando, FL called yesterday afternoon and asked me again for x times to email her the images. Or that I should upload it on my gallery so she can download them. The lazy me had been postponing things that seem not so important, madalas mangyari na tuluyan ko na itong makalimutan. Kaya, heto na’t I really took the time to resize the images and finally uploaded them.

The photos I published are lovely (ahem). Don’t worry most images I added on this specific album are architectural images of historical buildings, such as timber framed houses and etc.

I hope you’ll enjoy viewing the pictures and who knows, this might awaken your interest to visit Europe.

Before everything, I would like to extend my sincerest thanks to all of you who helped me decide which eyeglass to take. Yong No. 1 ang kinuha ko dahil unique.

Miltenberg

Tungkol naman sa aking bakasyon…as I briefly mentioned on my previous post, kaming mag-ina ay talagang nag enjoy sa aming galaan. I said mag-ina dahil hindi namin kasama si Papa Gerd due to his work. Unang destinasyon ng aming biyahe was Miltenberg. The original plan of my travel was only to bring some electric appliances to my eldest son. But as usual, it turned out different. Ang isang linggo ay naging dalawa at ang balak kong magrelax ay naging stress. While I was there kasi sangkatutak na party ang naka schedule.

One day before I left Miltenberg area, we were supposed to meet/surprise Tess Lermer (an old friend of ours) pero palpak dahil wala siya. My cousin Tess (yes same name) decided to call Melanie para doon nalang kami kina Genie magkita-kita. As she told me about it, bigla kong naalala na wala pala kaming pagkaing mai-serve dahil ang aming host na si Genie ay hindi nakapag grocery. I asked Tess to call Melanie again to tell her na magdala ng pagkain. Melanie on the other hand called the rest of Karilagan and other close friends of ours to join. Kaya ang labas, super fun party even if it was just a spontaneous idea. By the way, hindi naggrocery ang aming host dahil I warned her na hindi ako magluluto. Alam ko kasi ang tactic nitong friend kong ito, magpaplano siya kunyari ng party tapos ako kunyari ang tinatanong niya kong ano ang masarap ihanda…and at the end ako din pala ang magluluto. This time, naisahan ko siya. “The Kusinera” is on vacation noh (kaya mag ngatngat ng tsinelas ang sino mang gutom)! Hehehe. Pictures below were taken during the said kita-kita and hey, tingnan niyo ang dalawang nasa kusina…di ba’t ang gaganda nila?
