Olanda. Nord

Andra| #TravelwithThatMonday+ Nord+ Olanda

Cred ca rade si se rasuceste in mormant, Murphy saracul, caci fix atunci cand ne planuiam o zi cu soare in nord, multe plimbari pe jos, peisaje sa vis scaldate-n soare si nori ca desprinsi din Photoshop atunci s-a pornit potopul pamantului si n-a fost chip sa ne dam jos din masina. Am pornit din Amstelveen pe soare si vreme buna si cand am intors volanul dreapta, spre De Rijp s-a pornit rapaiala. Cum care De Rijp? Nici noi nu stim sa va zicem precis caci daca nu era Roxana, treceam pe langa el fara sa-l observam nici cu coada ochiului 🙂 Un sat mic, linistit, cu barci si mai mici, canale cochete si ingrijite, case dichisite si turisti nexam. Dar nu, n-a fost chip sa-i vedem frumusetea pe jos, ca oamenii, ci a trebuit sa ne plimbam ca fantomele cu masina pe stradute si sa ne bosumflam ca n-am avut parte de vreme buna. “Asta e”, ne-am zis si am luat drumul Volendam-ului, Edam-ului, Marken-ului si mai apoi Monnickendam-ului, toate patru vizitate fix in acelasi stil fantomatic 🙂 Am tot sperat ca se opreste ploaia dar nici pomeneala. Ba da, stati, s-a oprit. Fix cand am ajuns acasa 🙂
. . ..
.
A doua zi aveam planuri pentru Harlingen si Texel dar drumul de doua ore pana acolo si vremea frumoasa foc ne-a determinat sa facem un u-turn si sa ne apucam iar de tocat satele din nord. Pe soare, de data asta! Am inceput cu Marken-ul, cu drumul lui frumos printre ape ce duce pana la el si cu peisajele rupte din carti postale. Dar, stai, ca toata Olanda are peisaje rupte din carti postale, ce tot vorbim noi aici? Am carat in spate nori grei de furtuna ce ne-au ocolit toaaaaata ziua. Pesemne ca venise dupa noi in Harlingen si nu ne-a gasit acasa. Teapa! 🙂
. ..
. .
Pentru ca ne-a ramas gandul la Edam, favoritul nostru dintre toate, am lasat Volendam-ul pentru altadata si-am luat drumul mirosului de branza 🙂 Si ne-am plimbat pe-un soare de-ti indesa ochelarii pe nas si te facea sa nu mai vrei sa pleci pana nu pozezi toate casele mici si strambe si de-o simpaticie iesita din comun. Am luat apoi calea Monnickendam-ului care ne-a intampinat plin cu catargele lui ce inteapa cerul tantose si-am dat o tura prin centrul vechi ca sa nu zicem c-am trecut pe-aici ca gasca prin apa. Ne-am indesat traistele cu role de branza veche si grasa demna de-un 50+ si-am plecat spre De Rijp ca sa vedem cum e sa fii un sat cochet si lipsit de turisti. Dar, ce sa vezi, am ajuns pe-un chiuit si-un dans de-aproape ca-ti venea sa uiti c-ai venit cu masina si-ti venea sa galgai 5-6 beri la pet, doar asa … de sete. Caci am nimerit fix in mijlocul unui balci de toata frumusetea 🙂 Am plecat dupa ce-am cascat ochii si ne-am zis clar si raspicat, la un Cornet, dupa, ca ne-a placut tare dar TARE mult partea asta din Olanda.
. . . . ..
. . . .
Cu articolul acesta incheiem seria articolelor despre Olanda (bine bine, mai degraba ”cu” decat ”despre” 🙂 ) si va spunem, in caz ca vreti sa-i faceti o vizita, sa treceti in catastif si o incursiune in nord, mai ales ca-s toate satele la o aruncatura de bat de Amsterdam si la o aruncatura de bat unele de celelalte. Asta daca vreti sa vedeti cum arata niste sato-orase moderne, unde firul 13 al ierbii sta langa firul 14, unde casele par desprinse ca din povesti si unde peisajele sunt ireal de frumoase, mai ales scaldate in vremea asta capricioasa, pe care am tot boscorodit-o pana n-am mai putut 🙂

Wearing @redcardigans
I always wanted to ride on a Mocanița but I alway I always wanted to ride on a Mocanița but I always posponed the trip due to various reasons ranging from "it's to far away" to "it's more beautiful in the winter" to all kinds of excuses one makes up when he feels that one can always visit a place within his own country. In our case, the irony is that the most accessible places are often the most overlooked, so we decided to brake this vicious circle of I can always go but I never do and start a Romanian tour of places that we've always wanted to visit ☺ And now that I had my first Mocanița experience I want mooooore, so I'm turning to you guys again for help. ☺What other Mocanițe have you been on and where are they located? P.S for non Romanians that probably don't  know what a Mocanița is, it is a type of old steam engine train 😄
Borșa was the next place on our trip where snow d Borșa was the next place on our trip where snow dominated the scenery. The short trek to the Horses Waterfall was like walking  through a fairytale land 😍 More pictures to come...☺

In a nutshell, the idea of this trip came from our In a nutshell, the idea of this trip came from our stringent need to travel... to "go somewhere different", in a desperate attempt to keep our sanity during these times of absolute madness. It started from going somewhere for a weekend, it then changed to let's go somewhere farther away for a week and it ended with this 2 week journey through the northern part of Romania 😄 Rimetea was our first stop and we decided to stay in Colțești to get the best of both worlds 😄 We only got one day with sunshine during our 3 day stay and just one minute of perfect sunset sun coming into our room through this roof window. We managed to take this picture ☺

We are officially ready to start the picture series from our long (but still short) vacantation ☺ Are you ready? ☺
Everybody knows the saying "dress to impress", but Everybody knows the saying "dress to impress", but what do you do when you want to dress to dominate? Well, you don't need to worry about that no more, the guys from @marliesdekkersofficial have you covered, both literally and figuratively 😄 All you need to do is choose the right item for you and wear it with confidence. Allow yourself to experience the instant confidence boost and let your new alfa self dominate. Feeling strong has never been so feminine or easy ☺ What is the clothing item you wear when you need a confidence boost?
Sitting here, literally hanging by a thread I real Sitting here, literally hanging by a thread I realized that most of the time everything is hanging by a thread although I don't consciously realize it all the time. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I think everything is merely a spec in the space-time continuum and although it's absolutely necessary to think and realize things it's equally important to just ...hang by a thread and just be ☺ Do you ever feel like this? How do you find your balance? 😄
For the past several years January was the time we For the past several years January was the time we were preparing for a several month long tour of many countries or we were at the beginning of such a journey. This time last year we were in the Philippines waiting for Matei's cousin and our friends to come visit us ☺ This year, to keep and honor the tradition as much as we can considering the overall situation, we decided to go on a Romanian trip. I will keep you updated with our journey in real time in stories. 😁 Are you planning any escapades any time soon?
Nu stiu ce sa va transmit pentru noul an... poate Nu stiu ce sa va transmit pentru noul an... poate si pentru ca n-am prea mare incredere-n el ☺ Dar va zic ce mi-a zis mama azi noapte: hai sa-l facem pe asta sa nu ramana in istorie ca cel de dinaintea lui ...sau macar nu pentru aceleasi motive 😄 La multi ani mai buni, daca se poate 🤗

N-are sens sa va spunem de cate ori am fost la Veliko asa cum n-are sens sa va spunem nici de cate ori am mancat la Ego, sau cate pahare de vin sau bere am baut, sau cata branza si cartofi am bagat in suflete-nghetate. Sau chiar cate pisici am mangaiat sau ... ati prins ideea :) Avem un vlog proaspat, cu o cascada vizitata, cu o vreme de toamna asa cum ii sade ei bine, cu multa mancare, cu o camera foto noua si cu un Matei iscusit :) Vedeti voi despre ce e vorba, vizionare placuta :)
Road trip in Veliko Tarnovo, Cascada Kaya Bunar, pisici si multa multa MULTA mancare 🙂

That Monday

Am vrut sa vedem Mocanita de ani de zile insa tot timpul am amanat momentul: ba ca e departe, ba ca e mai frumos iarna, ba ca ... stiti voi, scuze de om care spune ca ai timp mereu pentru frumusetile din tara ta, ca-s la botul calului atunci cand vrei sa le accesezi:) Acum ca am prins drag de Mocanita avem o intrebare cruciala: cu ce Mocanite v-ati mai plimbat si unde? ...
