About Travel, Writing and Inspiration

I keep thinking every day why am I writing instead of spending my time with friends like I used to do, why do I forget to eat and why does my time running so fast? Then, I remember. I write because I enjoy the way I lose my inhibition when I do that, I write for the same reason I wake up every day and even if it is for nothing, I write because it makes me free.   A Short Remember I have to admit that my first love was writing, but over the years, I realized that travel has become as well one of my greatest passions and so I began to write about travel. A few months ago I was still working in order to finish my first novel but then I had this crazy idea of starting a blog and so my novel has become a memory that I no longer even like and so did my graduate...

A Travel Essay about Beauty

During my travels I’ve seen so many beautiful places that I almost felt overwhelmed and sometimes even lost in my imagination and I have always tried to steal a particle from each beauty in order to build mine. Maybe I failed but I managed to shape ideas that hallowed my soul and I think that is what life is about. Beauty has so many forms, so many colors and so many stages and it can be ruthless, incontestable, young, unusual, stunning, gloomy, natural, overwhelming or everlasting but, no matter which shape will take, beauty it’s meant to touch your soul or your mind at least for a moment, to inspire you and to make you become a better person, an artist and sometimes … to make you fall in love. Unusual beauty I have discovered the unusual beauty when I...

28 Christmases

Christmas is rolling around and the magic will surround us all again. “. . .

Don’t bother, you probably won’t make it! But, what about that special day when you woke up more enthusiastic than ever, you looked thru the window trying to catch Santa’s footsteps printed in the fresh snow blanket and then you ran full of hopes under the Christmas tree ? What about that smell of fresh baked goodies that came from the kitchen, what about the cheerfulness and the Christmas carols that come out of nowhere, the jolly bells ringing, the family around you, the hugs, the...

Poem for a Beautiful City

I was unable to see The morning thru your eyes, To fit the time in a painting And lock him in one of your museums.   I was unable to cover Your dusty beauty In a few antiquities that I bought when I left   I was unable to keep your past Over my present For just one more moment, I was unable to bring a piece of you Home, with me.   I was unable to print Your overwhelming beauty Over my retina And make it last forever.   Now, I’m just unable To remove you from my memories And bring you to life.
