Hello all travellers!

I'll keep this one short and come back to it later. One way to explore the whole Europe is to interrail. You can travel where ever you want by train. You can choose between one mont rail and couple of weeks railing. I prefered one month when i explored some beautiful countries in europe couple of years ago.
Gotta go now i'll tell more details next time. NO+HI+OK=NHIK

Time in Spain

Last summer i made my annual trip to spain.. (i own a house in Orihuela Costa.. Legacy from my parents.) It's been nice/not so nice to see how much the place have changed during years. Like ten years ago the place was just smooth ground from my crib to the beach. Spanish construction workers though are like ants: they keep building and building almost anything and now the 'valley of peace' is turned to some sort of turist centrum including also local people. (This has happened year by year)
Anyways my traditional trip have been flight to madrid and then rent a car to orihuela. (takes about 5hours non-stop from madrid) Driving motorways there are lots of beautiful views to see including historical castles. Sky's are always beautiful and there are lot of animals to see on the road. Driving through zaragoza and albacete as the bigger cities. (both every year exciting to see) Stopping by some small Cafeterias in the middle of nothing is very unique experience. Beaches of Costa Blanca are very beautiful (some of em are bigger and someones just some small bays) Everything you need is found in Torrevieja wich is a local city with no turists at all(huge +). It's about 10min drive from my house.
On the way back home i usually take a train to madrid from Alicante and spend few days in madrid that is as far as i'm considered one of the most beautiful places in world. But i'll get back to Madrid in my later writings.

C U SOON- keep travelling

Las Vegas

Approximately two years ago, I was with friends Las Vegas vacation. Holiday was almost perfect! Las Vegas is to get holiday-makers 'unrealistic' presence. It did succeed with me, The feeling was like been in heaven, slot machines a lot, every day good weather, beautiful women everywhere and really nice hotels. Las Vegas is one of the best holiday locations. I was in the hotel called the MGM Grand. It was a really nice hotel! It is surely among the world's biggest hotels. Lions inside the thousands of slot machines and poker tables are the real deal. Eating places were also really good, food quality was a 5-star values. (But the food was also quite expensive, that is fine in places) Otherwise, the food price was really cheap.We paid for the hotel stay around $ 150, but the middle of the week it was a bit more expensive. (It is more expensive since the middle of the week in Las Vegas because there is lot of business men then)

California


I went to California last winter. Truly exotic experience, it was again, like a view of San Fransico was a really beautiful place and really interesting. Golden Gate Bridge was really nice, I could not imagine that it's so big! Yes it was a really nice experience. But did you know that the Golden Gate Bridge is the world's most suicides place? Really sad, every week, someone jumps from the bridge down to death. It is probably the one reason why it is so "emotional" place. San Fransico, however, the best of them are steep hills! Was really fun to drive there by car.Los Angeles was also a really nice place, although a little nervous when so many friends have said that there's actually a lot of criminals ... I saw so many gang members, but nothing more happened. Of course, there is a lot of crime because 36 million people who live there (illegal immigrants are not calculated here). Every year a million illegal immigrants move to California. California was a really interesting experience and hopefully I go there again in the future.
