    Visit to State College, PA

    I like college towns. There is something about them that interests me. It must be the young people — plenty of them — looking to learn. Or it must be the “education” smell. I’m not sure. I just like college towns. State College is the home of Penn State. It has a nice, lively downtown adjacent to the college. It is filled with young people. Beatiful girls. 🙂 It feels rich. It feels safe. It’s very clean. What more can you ask? My college experience was different. I went to NJIT. It’s a technical school. We had 80% of guys…

    Our Trip to Spain

    We visited 4 places in 7 days… Barcelona. The greatest city I’ve ever been to. You can say New York has it all. But Barcelona has more — at least it seems like.

Are you single? Then you have to visit Ibiza. It’s the biggest party…

Since we did not eat breakfast at home, we went for coffee and a croissant at the airport. We still had time. So I…

    Euro Trip: Greece and Poland

    Oh, what a vacation it had been. For those two weeks I’ve been in a different world. Literally. We had a very good time. And like I said in my previous post, Greece was exotic and Poland was relaxing, family oriented. Greece. We’ve seen two different worlds in Greece. Athens, or Acropolis in Athens, is something to see. I’ve never seen anything like it. It is an amazing statue that’s been there since the beginning of the mankind. Then there is Athens, the city. Or I should say Athens before Olympics. Let me tell you, it looks like a great…
