I just got back from a holiday in my home country, Romania. It was a tiresome week, as it is usually the case with holidays in one’s native country: too many people to see and too little time, too many emotions and memories. The weather was summer-like, most of the time, which is always a bonus.
Bucharest was the same — a crazy, crowded place, full of opposites and playing tricks on your mind. My love-hate relationship with this place is a long one and there’s no sign that it will ever change.
But I’m glad I got to spend quality time with my family and friends, I enjoyed the sun; I had dinner and drank sangria at chic bistros, ate a superb grapefruit – aperol sorbet at Sweetology, had my coffee every day at M60. All in all, it was a good holiday, although I would need a week of sleep to recover from it. I miss the people already, but I am happy to be back in Amsterdam and I have plenty of pictures to look at to remember my trip.

Probably almost all Romanians have a love-hate relationship with Bucharest. I love seeing snapshots like these, that capture the small everyday details. Btw, that cat sure looked like it couldn’t be bothered for anything in the world.
That cat couldn’t be bothered for sure! Everyone had to walk around her! 🙂
After all, I should plan a trip to Bucharest, to Romania. It’s sunny as my native land. Thank you, Dana!
You should! You’ll love it! 😉
