Trip in Bulgaria

Yes, this country does exist !
Forget about what you can think about the 26th or 27th European Union country.
You may consider it as an original destination for holidays, indeed it is, and in the right sense.
It is really a beautiful country to visit and I do not exaggerate. At least the part of the country that I visited.
It seems like a French Riviera beach


Last summer, my family and I were deciding our next destination for summer 2012. We wanted to go to Spain but it was full everywhere, which is normal during the month of July (we saw to it a little bit later...). The only place where some rooms were still available was in Bulgaria. There is the sea, the sun... Why not ??

At the end of our stay, I was completely satisfied ! Forget about poverty, corruption, people that come to our country to beg in the metro, and look at the wealth of the monuments, the beautiful landscapes, and also a very delicious food.

Moreover, there is a city which is even registered in the world heritage of UNESCO: Nessebar



 To sum up, your next destination is Bulgaria. Even if you can see a certain poverty, there is the contrast with a very wealth culture. 
It is just 3 hours from Paris !

Now it's up to you to say what you would think about going there...

Murano exhibition at Maillol Museum

As I'm studying the Italian language and its civilization, it was interesting for me to go to see this exhibition that took place until July, 27th.

Murano is an isle situated in the north of Venice. It is famous for being specialized in glassblowing. The kraftsmen create fantastic glass masterpieces like dishes, chandelier and especially jewelry.


These are the only photos that I could take (secretly) but these mirrors are so beautiful that I could stay in front of them for hours !



The only comment that I would add is that I think it was too much expensive for what I saw... There was few things to see and it cost about 10€ (after students discount)


Now it's up to you to tell me what you thought about this exhibition... 


Trip in Naples



I know, this city and its region have a pretty bad reputation: wastes, mafia, a language which is understandable... But there are also many good things to visit and during summer, the beach is great (be careful of some pieces of glass that may lie around the sand...). When the weather is sunny, you have a beautiful view of the very chic isle of Capri from Naples bay.
Of course, there is the famous Vesuve volcano that you can climb. I did it and it was amazing ! There is such a so fantastic view of all the city.

Apart from that, food there is excellent ! I tasted a pastry with an unpronounceable name: "Sfogliatella"

It's mouth-watering, isn't it ?



There are lots of churches to visit, these small tourist alleys where you buy souvenirs...

This is not to scare you but it can remain a dangerous city when you rush into small streets...  When I've been there last summer with my Napolitan friends, we were walking and suddenly there were like gunshots that rang out...

Nevertheless, people are warm and welcoming

Now, it's up to you to let me know if you already have been there and if you thought differently than me...
