This video from Georgia is the second one I’m posting from my solo trip. It’s the second report on the three countries of the Caucasus, located between Europe (Russia) and Asia (Iran). Since I have limited time, I’m also taking tours with local agencies to make the most of it. I flew to Georgia from…

Here I am almost live in this video from Azerbaijan. They are in Baku, the capital, on the waterfront on the shore of the Caspian Sea . It is a very nice, neat city that mixes well the old heart, the super modern part, and all the architecture of the late 1800s and early 1900s,…

As in the first few times, unusual accommodations in England happened to me. In particular, by visiting my friend who lives in London, I got more into the British climate. We talked about the difficulties of fitting in, in a new country and in such a large and tiring city. Especially coming from a small…

Hot air ballooning in Cappadocia is now a must for world travelers. I, who always try to do something different, or at least in an original way, could not give this one up despite being a very expensive activity compared to the cost of Turkish life.
