Snowdon National Park (Snowdonia) was on my wish-list of places to visit in UK for many years. It was not because of the distance from where I live, or due to the cost of accommodation there, that I have postponed my trip for so long. The truth is the same [...]
The Spring is coming! I can smell it in the air, when I go for a walk to the city park. I can hear it in the morning, in the form of bird songs, when I leave home @6am to work. I can feel it on my skin, when days become longer, and warmer, [...]
DANCERS AT A GATHERING This spectacle came to me as a surprise. Going to the cinema that evening, I did not expect to see another great performance of the dancers, with a very different feel to what I have already seen during my previous visits. This time, instead of a story that supposed to [...]

From time to time I will be sharing something that I believe is worth remembering, listening, watching or seeing. I will call this series Random Find in the Wild. Guitar is a very common instrument and, to me personally, not very exciting one. The sound of it is so common, that there must be [...]
There is not much to say about baking bread other than this: I always wanted to do it myself at home. Not as a job, or a carrier, but to learn how to work with hands and taste the outcome. To experiment. To eat healthier. To remind myself the smell and taste of my [...]
