Appealingly ugly
... , but even that was overshadowed by the rediculously flambouyant Raichle Palace. A monstrosity of a building, far too elaborately decorated and styled, I couldn't help but smile when I looked at it. I was really disappointed to discover the gallery within ...

Great old city

Kosovo
Hallo zusammen und Gruesse aus dem Kosovo. Kosovo ist der Welt juengster Staat, es hat 2007 seine Unabhaengigkeit erklaert, aber nur einige wenige Staaten haben sie bisher anerkannt. Daher kann ich es noch nicht zaehlen:-) Aber falls es mal UN Mitglied ...

La ciudad gris
... hora! Ni nos atreviamos a hablar mucho para no atraerlos. Que buscaban en los asientos? Que es lo que se "trafica" entre Serbia y Rumania? Definitivamente algo huele a chamusquina aqui. Echamos a andar pero al rato el tren para de nuevo. Ahora es el ...
