I went to Los Angeles and London in this year. To tell you the truth, I went to Korea, New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, United States, and United Kingdom.

However, I would like to visit London, again. When I went to London, the purpose of this is to learn English in 3 weeks. I did not have enough time to visit museum, like British museum, Portrate garally, and so on.

I also want to go to other Europe country, like Spain, Austria, Germany, France, and so on.

I plan to spend there a month (an entire month of not working, not studying, but just having fun)

I wrote it several months ago, and finally I am off for Ukraine :D . So guys wish me a nice trip. Good-bye

London is a very big city and it is full of history. I would say that London is a capital of this world (not New York). London is much older and in this world full of technology I would say history is even more important. So I am glad I visited London. There are so many Jews in London till today. I imagine they decide about majority of the most valid financial things of this world. I try not to think badly about Jews but I have to be sincere and not to think positively about them too. This is a very strange nation after all. And cruel. So the same way they were cruel towards others history had paid this cruelty towards them. Of course it wasn't wise and finally it decided that Germans lost IIWW (my opinion) but if I had an option to keep up with Jews or avoid - I would choose the second as it seems to me.

PS. Now I read a very nice educational detective story about Scotland Yard inspector who visits London's flea markets looking for some mysterious robbers and is all time scared if he still has his wallet in his bag. His personal assistent(?!) Elvira Elliot laughs at him that it would be really funny when Sctoland Yard inspector would call his bulldog-like-boss (Sir XY) that he was robbed on his duty. Yes - it would be funny indeed.

Nice travelling,
LM

Hello, I had a dream : to go to Morocco and we decided this year to go there ; how happy I was...

BUT on the ship between Tarifa and Tanger, my dream became a nightmare cause a policeman told me that I couldn't go to Morocco cause I had a national identity card and no passport (in a guide book, it was written that a national identity card was enough :x ); so my trip to Morocco ended on the ship in front of Tanger :(

So we decided to drive to Andalusia; we made a very nice trip cause it's a very beautiful region in Spain, but it's not Morocco :cry:

Oh yeah, especially staying on the farm, digging out potatoes, hay harvesting, and waking up at 6 a.m. because the ducks are quacking under the window :lol: . That was fun! :lol: It’s nice to experience that kind of life … for a few days. But I would not want to live that way my whole life. Hell no :lol:

The contemporary ones or the churches?
Those churches are Kiev Pechersk Lavra. It’s a men’s monastery that was founded in 1051; then it grew bigger and bigger. I believe it is the most popular tourist place in Ukraine. If you ever go to Ukraine, you definitely want to visit it.
