I’ve just realized how fast time flies (once again!) It has been already 5 weeks since I’m back in Europe. It is almost half of the time I had spent in Mexico before. Unbelievable. And I see now I am being different at home, in Slovakia, than when I travel. Do I have two personalities??? […]
I speak perfect Spanish. Having an M.A. in Spanish philology, I should. But the perfect Spanish from Spain. So after my first encounter with Mexico at the airport, I was shocked.

Despite of unpleasant weather, Scotland has a lot to offer. After spending a year working there in 2009, I put up a list of 6 must do’s in Scotland. Honestly, I did not know much about Scotland until 2009. I knew just some basic facts, such as local men wearing kilt without anything underneath; beautiful […]
