Where to eat in Manchester, The Old Wellington


So far, this is my favorite pub in Manchester, it’s the perfect place to laze around over a cold pint of brew and afterwards going up at  the second floor for having supper. You can get traditional English food in a pub with an unique character. Take a look at what I ate.

Chicken and mushroom pie

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Manchester, with its warm atmosphere and countless kind of beer this restaurant can make you feel at home. The price is rather affordable and you can get traditional English dishes. This is what I've tasted up.

Stunning Myanmar


I’ve travelled through Myamanar with local drivers, and I asked for  assistance to a local guide who helped me with the organization of the whole trip. His name is Teo,  I’ve found him by chance on the Tripadvisor site, if you want to get in touch with him, just check his site out (www.teobirmania.it). He’s reliable and very well organized. I've lived an amazing  experience with him, that’s why, if you don’t want to organize your trip on your own, I highly recommend him.

Impressions of Myanmar


Formerly known as Burma, Myanmar is finally emerging from years of isolation and oppression, nevertheless, there’s still a long way to go in terms of freedom.
While travelling throughout this country you have to keep your eyes open in order not to miss any beauty, any smile, any details. With a history that spanned over than 13.000 years  and a population made up of many different ethnic groups, Myanmar is a fascinating and complex country which it has to be lived up until the end.

Three days in Amsterdam


I’ve spent three days in this amazing and vibrant city, it was my third trip on my own and I've really enjoyed my time, I’ve rented a footbrake bicycle and I wandered around the city, up and down the canals spotting beautiful alleys. Extremely easy to get everywhere, you can breathe a cosmopolitan atmosphere at any corner. I also found myself under a little blizzard, which it made things much funnier, then keep on smiling if you are in one of the best city in Europe!!!!
