Gratar Odată cu vremea bună, a început şi sezonul „grătarelor”, numai că locurile amenajate în acest sens sunt prea puţine în comparaţie cu numărul locuitorilor oraşului. Consilierul local Iulian Mara consideră că cele patru zone din oraş care au fost amenajate în acest sens sunt subdimensionate, ţinând cont că acestea oferă în jur de 160 de mese. „Braşovul are o populaţie de 200.000 de locuitori şi dacă luăm în considerare că doar 5 – 10% dintre aceştia merg într-un weekend la picnic nu au unde.

After a week or so of feeling crummy with a flu-like virus I am finally starting to feel like myself. No more fatigue, although it's been a tiring week and I still feel a little washed out.This afternoon we went to Oak Mountain State Park for the Muslim community's annual Mother's Day picnic.

La primera vez que lo vi fue en Mongol, la película de Sergei Bodrov. En ella daba vida a Genghis Khan. Tadanobu Asano se convirtió entonces en uno de mis favoritos. Quizá porque adoro a Sergei Bodrov o, tal vez, porque Genghis Khan es una de las figuras históricas que más respeto y admiro (sí, a pesar de su sanguinario legado). Supongo que, en realidad, fue la combinación de ambas lo que me llevó a seguir a este actor. Si Bodrov lo había elegido para este papel, tenía que ser por algo. Y enseguida pude... read more »

Going to Tagaytay is not complete without visiting or dropping by the famous Picnic Grove. The last time I had been to Picnic Grove was during my college days. An opportunity came last May this year when we had a short visit there (an hour, more or less) before we checked into Taal Vista Hotel. It’s a place in Tagaytay that has one of the best views of Taal Volcano, said to be the smallest volcano in the world. There are lots of things to do in Picnic Grove. It’s also a recreational place. You may opt ... read more »
