Euro Trip

I have returned from a 3 week vacation to Europe. First stop, Romania, which is my home country I went to visit family mostly, rather then do sight seeing. If you dont know to much about this country here is some info:  
"Located north of the Balkan Peninsula on the western shores of the Black Sea. It is a country of great natural beauty and diversity and a rich cultural heritage. Romania enchants visitors with its scenic mountain landscapes and unspoilt rural areas, but also with its historic cities and its busy capital."



It was a good feeling being reunited with everyone and I enjoyed that my bf was there with me. Yes I dragged him w/ me. He is actually canadian, of south american decent, and this was a very interesting experience for him. 
2 weeks are up.. and now heading to Venezia, Italy. 

Hotel was located close to Piazza San Marco, which is a 30 min ferry ride from the airport. Venice is very popular and to have a hotel so close to San Marco was great. Only thing is carrying your suitcases up and down all the bridges you have to cross.. That was the down part.
We visited Murano and Burano. Murano is a series of islands linked by bridges in the Venetian Lagoon. It lies about 1.5 km north of Venice. We took a water-taxi which are free for Murano. It is famous for its glass making, so we visited Murano Art Factory. If you are interested in reading about the Murano glass check it out here
Burano is another island, where the interesting and cool thing is mostly how the houses are built and their bright colours. Literraly I have never seen houses so colourful. Any colour you want, pink, yellow, blue etc.

In all is a beautiful city. Sitting at night at Plaza San Marco, listening to music was magical. Go visit, its a must =D


Last, but not least, Vienna - Austria.

Coming up - Stay tuned for pictures.
