PARIS

Paris - one of the most famous cities of the world. My top tree tourist attractions were:

1st - The Eiffel Tower
2nd - Orsay museum
3rd - the cruise along the river Seine

Let's start with the Eiffel Tower. It was just great! My first impression was that it was much higher than I thought. The view from the top is breathtaking. It is you and nothing else. The cars seem to be tiny boxes and people are just moving dots. It is so fabulous that you must try it when visiting Paris. It was my first time in Paris and, of course, at the top of the Eiffel Tower, but I claim it wasn't the last time. It is just great and memorable experience.
 Let me  abolish one of the common preconceptions that the Eiffel Tower is not for people who are afraid of heights. It is very deceptive to think that being so high is frightening. It isn't scary, you don't feel the height. Maybe, it is because there are no other buildings nearby which are high as the Tower. However, I should add that open space around you can be overwhelming. So, If you are afraid of open spaces, don't try to climb it.
If you are interested in tourist tips, remember to get up early in the morning. The ques to the entrance can be a little discouraging, so it is worth to be early in the morning before crowds of other tourists come.
Mind pickpocketing and other crimes. Despite the fact that the Eiffel Tower is well secured with all cameras, police offcers and even army, tourists are often robbed in the crowd on the balconies, lifts and stairs. I knew about it and I had only money for the ticket on me (no bags, ID cards, or credit cards are necessery). It was wise of me because I passed the security customs fast. Remember not to take any knives, resors, or other suspicious things with you.

I hope your visit at the top would be as nice as mine!

My holiday destination this summer

My holiday destination this summer.
It wasn't New York, but one of famous capital cities in Europe. Can you guess which? It wasn't London, or Berlin, not Rome, or Madrid. Do you know now? Yes, it was Paris, a European city regarded as the one of lovers and the center of fashion. Probably, the most recognisable city around the world.

In next posts I'll try to write something about my trip. Maybe some tourists find out some tips, or interesting information. If you would like to get to know something, read my posts.

New York as a holiday destination

As I have written holidays are coming. One of the great holiday destination could be New York - a beautiful multicultural city in the USA. Here there's a short video about how to spend a day out in NY.

Hello!

Hello everyone!
Summer holidays are coming and soon all of you will go to some holiday resorts to have a rest and relax from school work. Meanwhile, we are in a real hurry to do everything before deadlines. Students are trying to do their best and get the most wonderful school report ever. Teachers are followed by pupils as well as they are struggling with their paper work.

It's, thus, really nice to sit with my mug of green tea and take my time in front of the computer screen. Browsing my favourite pages are the best thing after my busy day at school.

It's almost 4 p.m. and I know I should start writing my final reports, but in the evening I am going to polish my nails and have a bubble bath. What's your way to relax after a hard day at work?

In the meanwhile, I'll eat my chocolate muffin, sip my tea and start working.
