  Bari, where I went actually just because of Saint Nicholas, impressed me very much. I did not expect and I had never seen before  such deep and many-sided contrasts of a city……..
  historical spirit of Roman times – and noise of modern city in 15 minutes to walk….
  dazzling white stone walls of old houses, palm-trees and [...]

  I thought this was rather annoying at the time of the picture because it was making the traffic move slowly and it was hot, but now looking back I think it’s rather funny and fair to allow everbody on the road with their own unique form of transportation.

  These were everywhere on the isle of  Gili Trawangen, it is very simple there.  This type of structure I’m sure comes with living in a place that is vulnerable to angry weather.

  I like that Indonesia it is emphasized to protect the animals that are part of the same world as us.  It is possibly an aspect of their culture that is influenced by the religion practiced there.

  Indonesia is one of the most beautiful countries in the world.  There’s a very unique religion practiced there, Dharma Hinduism which is, very basically, a mix of Hinduism and Buddhism with other beliefs in there as well.  Essentially the belief is that of natural justice and harmony.

  I put this picture up because for me it reminds me of how much respect the animal trackers had for this dangerous creatures.  With those horns and weighing several hundred pounds you can see why these beasts are kept clear of.

  The traditional polish dumplings can be filled with various  stuffing (sweet: strawberries, berries and salty: meat, sauerkraut).  My favourite contain white cheese (dry cottage cheese), mashed potato and onion. They are usually topped with fried onion and bacon.
