Jaunting Trips – best nine of 2017
We’re getting ready to close another year, and personally it couldn’t have ended sooner. It has been a year of more downs than ups for me, so I’m looking forward to have a new start. I have to admit, 2018 seems to be the year ideal to start something: New Year starts on a Monday. …

More than shopping – Half-day adventure in Milano
Buon giorno Milano! I landed on Malpensa airport with the first flight out of Bucharest at 7 A.M. The only thing on my mind was the Italian breakfast I was about to have! Bring me a cappuccino and a brioche (preferably with chocolate), pronto! I had about half a day to wander around the city …
Eating local: Italian food festival in Chiavenna
I am getting ready for a new Jaunting Trip in the North of Italy, so I thought it would be nice to share with you a post from my last trip up there. Very close to the Swiss border there is the absolutely charming town of Chiavenna. The easiest way to reach it is to …
Let’s do this! Jaunting all over.. Bucharest!
Ok. I have been postponing this for way too long. It’s time to get down to business and start writing and sharing my stories, photos and trips with you. Take it a step further than Instagram. I was contemplating on what should I start with. I have a few trips and a good stack of …
