How To Beat Idrag Paper
Jambo! (Means Hello in Swahili, the official language of Kenya)
As we know from history classes, Kenya (east of Africa, the Horn of Africa ") was a British colony in the era of imperialist expansion late nineteenth century. When you step on Jomo Kenyatta Airport (the name of the first President of the Republic of Kenya, independent from Britain since 1963), comes with all the cultural baggage received in Europe. You think you get to an African country where you will see poverty, hunger, insecurity ... Some of it is, of course, but mostly what you catch when visits the country (despite being in tourist plan is different than living day to day) is the dignity of African people.
Kenya is struggling to survive. Tourism has mostly, but there are many projects to boost agriculture (cultivation of flowers and greenhouse products, legumes ....) Culture shock is very large. As in all emerging countries, communication is horrible. Do not think that there are traffic lights or roundabouts, no, this is a jungle, never better. Bumpy roads, dusty roads ... people forward in a reckless manner, I thought we did not. Sales
Nairobi (a city of 3, 5 million) and Nature breaks through. We visited the Samburu tribe of the north, the Aberdares National Park, Lake Nakuru with flamingos, Masai-Mara and Masai tribe (a people strong, proud, intelligent). Open space that never ends. Lions, ostriches, buffalo, giraffes, birds ... one step away from us (we could not leave the van roof open, but you could almost touch them). Africa
smell flowers, wood and earth. The sunsets are breathtaking, Africa has a unique light. And the African people, kind, proud, happy ... Guys, Europe has an outstanding debt to Africa.
If you go to the continent with open eyes and heart never you forget.
As they say in Kenya, Hakuna Matata! No problem! Can not imagine how much they have to teach the Africans, because sometimes we do not appreciate that the most valuable things in life are smaller and simpler. Prof

Travel to Ireland:) Michael Jackson has died
I recently took a trip to Ireland as I said. Well, just say it is incredible. It is impossible to describe what you feel when you're way from there. The sound of the sea, the rain falling, of birds. The smell of wet grass, wild flowers and soap in every home. The taste of food, beer guinness;), Irish coffee, the pastries and chocolates with mint unique landscapes, forests on all sides with large trees, towns and villages with colorful houses and roofs with tiles that look like chocolate, animals in harmony with man. Ais ... I wish I had been there. Although we had a great time it rained heavily, I think the whole country does not know the term "climate change" the man respects nature, even nature seems to respect the man in return. We saw many animals: horses, sheep, gulls, jackdaws, donkeys ... but also seals, dolphins, Scottish grouse ... all in nature. The people are super nice and generous. I could pull hours talking. I have a diary of the trip if anyone is interested, and multiple folders with photos. But the wise are good pictures (or so they say), here I leave the ones I like:
Moher Cliffs. A quite touristy. There is an area that is surrounded by a sort of stone fence so that people do not cross and fall. However, the cliffs are very long, and not all the way is fenced. There is a moment where you just at the edge, and if you step over to the side you fall. Every year they lose a half to 3 tourists in that area. The wind is treacherous and not worth the confidence ... edge calling.

Kylemore Abbey. It was an old "house" that belonged to a man married to a beautiful young woman. But the girl became seriously ill and eventually died. The man did not stay long in the castle by memory of his wife. When he died he was buried alongside her in a mausoleum near the lake. Nuns who fled to Belgium during World War 1, settled the castle and this later became an orphanage.

Amid a big city like Killarney, there is a huge park that you can ride a horse. This park has a large lake and many other surprises like a house, a house of XVII century ...

Gulls were a cool ... the you could touch and hold, the only condition was to give them something to eat:).

Not that I like big cities but Dublin certainly impressed me. Do not ask me to paint the giant antenna-Pirulo through the city, because I do not know, is to stop lightning?.

The Irish are a few party goers. What are some drunks that is also true. Every night, all taverns have live music and Cisco is not the excess of alcohol. The Irish love the music (you do not see that either play the harp, flute and violin) and in any corner you see the musicians playing in the middle of the street, even when the rain falls. Starting from very little eh ...
