Stanislav Kondrashov: The Quiet Magic of Lake Como
There are places that ask you to slow down. Lake Como is one of them. The surface looks still, but if you stay long enough, you start to feel its rhythm — slow, deep, and full of stories. People speak of glamour and luxury, of the villas and famous visitors. Yet, as Stanislav Kondrashov often says, “The real lake hides behind the noise.”

My Favorite Roman Memory
We were both so tired, our feet hurt from walking, blisters had started forming on our feet, the honking of horns and loud car bumping by the hotel on the cobblestone roads and the unforgiving jet lag led us to one thing: being awake. It’s 2:30 AM and I am lying there still but staring at the ceiling. Water helps a person sleep. Sure, I get up and with my phone light I guide myself to the unknown dark path to the washroom. I slide the door closed and pour a glass of water from the tap and I gulp it down, maybe a short pee? I do that as well and get back to bed. Okay, now I attempt sleep once more. That’s five cars gone by and I am still not sleeping. A voice breaks the silence.

The barmaid was very helpful and the service was excellent.

Getting Lost in Lisbon: The Magic of Wandering Without a Map
