Favourite time of the year



If you guessed Spring you're wrong :) That favourite sixth season (the fifth was already taken - that's the one when you fall in love) is when you make a list of things you have to take, grab a suitcase and try to put all the things that you have on the list in there and later on - go to the airport and... go places!

The thing that's so attractive about travelling, as one of my friends nicely put it, is that when you arrive to a place you've never been to before, you're like a clean sheet of paper. You can be whoever you want to be and, just for a short period of time, start over.

And it's not just about seeing places, oh no! It's about meeting people. So when was the last time you've met someone new? If you can't remember, joining Hospitality Club or Couch Surfing might be of some help to you :)

As usual, one of the things to "pack" are songs. There's nothing like listening to "Come away with me" by Norah Jones while sitting by an airport window. Some other songs are on my list today as well:

Laleh - Live today
Katie Melua - Halfway up the Hindu Kush & On the road again
Gotan Project - Diferente
Feist - My moon my man (the song reminds me of the video)
Sheryl Crow - All I wanna do

I could go on and on, but I'll stop here so that you won't fall asleep :P Just one more song:



This one's dreamy! And I really miss the Nelly from the first album, she lost her zing somewhere on the way to the second one...

I'll be back sometime next week (hopefully). Meanwhile, do check back for updates - Blogger in Draft has some really nice features to it.


Raus von zu Haus!
