Pensiunea de la Micloșoara, locul unde parcă trăiești vremuri de odinioară Maria Baston Mă bucur tare mult când voi cei care citiți blogul vă oferiți să împărtășiți din experiența voastră și altora. Căci asta e frumusețea unui blog pe care eu îl consider un fel de sufragerie virtuală unde ne întâlnim și ne povestim unii altora despre idei, despre oameni frumoși și locuri de vizitat. De aceea am și deschis rubrica de colaboratori. De această dată ne-a scris Maria Baston care a fost la finalul anului trecut la o pensiunea faină, care mi-a amintit de atmosfera satelor din jurul orașului meu natal Târgu Mureș. „Am ajuns!” Dintre camerele puse la dispoziție, am ales camera cu pat dublu din căsuța albastră. După ce am vizitat tot ce era de vizitat, am plecat spre castelul contelui, care este la 5 minute de mers pe jos. Am ajuns și la castel odată cu înserarea. Construcția castelului Kálnoky a fost începută în anii 1500 ca și conac de vânătoare al familiei și conține multe elemente renascentiste.

Success Stories: How Michael Saved $14k in 6 Months Making $9 Per Hour Greetings from Africa! Somewhere right now, I’m trying to snap a photo of a lion without being eaten. Or, I am friending a honey badger. In the meantime, this week I want to share stories of readers who have realized their travel dreams in hopes of inspiring and showing you that anyone can make their travel dreams come true! A lot of people say you need to have a well-paying job in order to afford your trip. Nomadic Matt: Tell everyone about yourself.Michael: I was living in Austin, Texas before I became a citizen of the world. How long were you planning on traveling? That’s the best way to go! The second fear I had was about the trip itself. Was there anything specific about this site that helped you overcome those fears? Moreover, this site helped me to travel better by introducing me to money-saving techniques such as WWOOFing and Couchsurfing that have helped me save on accommodations. Ok, so tell us, how the heck did you save $15k in 6 months?
