Franfkurt, Fábio & Fábio-

I had a GREAT time with one of my best friends - Fábio!
I am not talking about myself even though I am one of my best friends of myself :-)

I am just jokking! But...

It was really GREAT to meet my dear friend Fábio in Frankfurt last weekend.
It was CRAZY!

He was working in Frankfurt and would be flying back to Brazil on Sat 10pm. I had just one chance to see him!

As soon as I finished our Friday meeting (normally around 2 or 3am) I was supposed to go to the ariport and take the flight at 6am and because I did not find a direct flight I had to pass by Zurich and then fly to Frankfurt.

And so I did...

However, I was not expecting the "influence" of the French strick and so...

Because there was a strick in France, the flight was delayed from Barcelona and I missed my flight in Zurick to Frankfurt...

Oh my godness!! I was able to negotiate with Lufthansa and took the next flight at 10.30am other wise I would have taken the flight at 1pm and it would be too late to see him...

Besides that, I was trying to contact Fábio in the hotel and Johnna from USA at2am (there) helped me to find the phone number of the hotel by Internet because I did not have it..

When I called the hotel the receptionist told me there was not any Fábio there and the only Brazilian guys were XXXX and ZZZZ :-) I do not remember those names but it was not Fábio...

I could not believe!
I was still talking to Lufthansa and I decided to call the hotel again...

- Hey, it is not possible!
- Fábio has to BE THERE. He is waiting for me! Are you sure there is NOT ANY Fábio?

I asked the recetionist.

- Well, there is one who is Italian. She said
- What is his surname? I asked her

-Silva? she answered me.
-What? I could not believe that!!

-It is impossible because Silva is not Italian. Please, put me through....

Finally I was able to talk to Fábio and adjusted everything...


In summary, everything worked very well! We had fun! We talked about everything! We had good German beers and sausages! .-)

By the way, if we had not had German beers and sausages I could not say we had been to Germany!

He flew back to Brazil and I stayed in Frankfurt...
I had no idea which place I was going to stay when I booked my reservation while I was still in Barcelona...

The BIG surprise was...
As soon as I got to the Hostel in Frankfurt I realized it was THE SAME hostel that I stayed 4 years ago. What a coincidence!!

I love this kind of adventure!
Life is GREAT!

We plan part of the life and the another way we are supposed to improvise...
Think about that!

Madrid, Salamanca, Avila, Segovia & Toledo!

Me and Johnna had fun by visiting Madrid, Salamanca, Avila, Segovia & Toledo!

We met our friend Leah in Madrid and really enjoyed the Spanish cities...

Madrid is the Spanish capital.
It is a huge city and has great parks like "el Retiro", very famous and important museums like "El Prado y La Reina Sofia" and good food!

We went to the "oldest" restaurant of the world according to the Guiness' book - Casa Botin!

Salamanca is incredible! My favorite one!
I love that kind of style!

The university is one of the oldest university of the world.
Its "plaza mayor" is considered the most beautiful "plaza mayor" of Spain.
The city is really beautiful!

Avila has the Roman walls and we walked over them!

Segovia has one of the most amazing Roman aqueduct left!
"Cochinillo" is the most important and well known dish of Segovia.

Toledo is a mix of Christian, Muslim and Jewish influences!
It is a medieval city and you will enjoy visiting the churches, cathedrals andu just walk around you will understand what I am talking about...

This part of Spain is really precious because it is very rich!

You can learn so many things and understand the differences between the Spanish cities, provinces, habits & cultures.

GREAT time!

Warsaw, Frédéric François Chopin & Wroclaw

Warsaw is the capital of Poland and a nice city to go.

There is huge plaza and you can choose good restaurants and taste good Polish food.

The Holy Cross Church has the heart of the composer Frédéric François Chopin. Because his wish was exactly to have his heart there once he died.

On the ohter hand, Wroclaw is a small city but it is beautiful as well.

There are a lot of churches, bridges, very nice façades and it is a good place for a coffee and walk around in order to disconnect from our daily routine.

Warsaw and Wroclaw were my last cities and stops of my summer/holidays of 2010!

I loved to visit and know Poland!
