RE: Crossing Romania in Seven Days. Day One!
I can tell you worked hard to gather this story. I think that is one of the hardest things when we are away is to try to capture for a blog some of what we see. It does not always translate so well on the paper, but, this blog did very well. The entire town was breathtaking, everywhere you looked.
It is in the small details that you really captured and pointed out that the statements are really made! (To me anyway) It also shows how much you observe. Again, that is only my opinion. Never feel guilty about #MarketFriday! You never miss it and there will always be another! This was a nice change today and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
You don't have to do the seven days in a row. Just still break them up and bring us all back to the journey when you get to the next part. It will be fun. It might not feel interesting to you, some of these places, but, traveling to a place I have never been is always interesting to me. :)
Thanks again! It was awesome!
You're a real friend! Thanks for your encouragement and advice. I'll take them into account, of course. Let's hope that this place will survive and we will stay close.
After that we will tell all the stories we know or discover. I'm glad I could show something in this city ... the beautiful parts! You know very well that we are tempted to show what is beautiful and ignore ugliness. That's why our presentations can be misleading, they can present a reality that we ignorantly did the ugly parts. This is the part I fear, not to lie through omission, to leave a false impression.
How true that is!!! If we showed all the ugly parts, who will want to see the pictures? I actually like to show off those parts of the city sometime, for a point of showing how a once beautiful area had fallen into disrepair, or even I have shown the worst parts to show the homeless and less fortunate.. and how did we ever get there where we don't care or our own parents/brothers/sisters/kids?
But, for the most part, just like the selfies we take, it is more presentable to use the best of pictures than the least of them.
Yes! I look forward to whatever you put out. Do not stress to make it amazing. Just trust in your friends that we like your work.
Have a fabulous weekend!
Thanks! You are right, we must rely on friends first and not disappoint them. I'm writing for friends first, I'm glad I'm overwhelmed when I was just writing for myself because no one else read.
I think it's good when we write about a place to show the beauty first, that's what we enjoy ... but there's a little mention with something we did not like ... like an advertisement...
Honestly - a lot of people read and don't comment. It takes time and it takes an effort to think up a comment! Well, you know that! ;)
Yes, I know...sometimes is harder than to make a post!
Yes!!!!!
