Glimpses of Vancouver

This was the second time I was at Vancouver. The first one was when I was working on Celebrity Cruise line in 2004-2005. Maybe this wasn’t my first autumn after all. The first trip was such a blur. This time stayed at Robson Street, what a lively street! Lined with restaurants mostly Asian, souvenir shops, […]

Palermo was just what I needed.

Comparing the glossy tourist town to Palermo, a more ordinary life. If you’re wondering about the mafia scene, we’ll it’s […]
