• Acopera-mi inima cu ceva

    October 14, 2012 /

    A venit toamna, acopera-mi inima cu ceva, cu umbra unui copac sau mai bine cu umbra ta. Mă tem ca n-am să te mai vad, uneori, ca or să-mi creasca aripi ascutite pana la nori, ca ai să te ascunzi intr-un ochi strain, si el o să se-nchida cu o frunza de pelin. Si-atunci mă apropii de pietre si tac, iau cuvintele si le-nec în mare. Suier luna si o rasar si o prefac intr-o dragoste mare.

  • Memories from Munchen Part II – Dachau, where you can only begin to imagine the horrors of the Holocaust

    September 19, 2012 /

    Unfortunately not everything about Germany is wonderful and exciting. On my last days in Munchen I decided I couldn’t leave without visiting the Dachau concentration camp, which lies only 12 km away.    The KZ Gedenkstätte is free to visit, you only have to pay for parking (3 EUR per car) and for the audio guide which I totally recommend as it explains a lot more than the different information boards do. The Dachau concentration camp opened on March 22, 1933 after Adolf Hitler has been appointed Reich Chancellor. The camp, which was destined for political prisoners, served as a model for all concentration camps which were opened afterwards. It…

  • Memories from München Episode I – Tollwood

    September 15, 2012 /

    This is the first article in a series I called “Memories from München”. Since I took a lot of photos in the 5 months spent in Germany, I will post in this series the photos as I will have the time to edit and select them. So let’s start with the first episode…. Tollwood is a yearly summer festival which takes place in the München Olympiapark, the park built especially for the München Olympic Games in 1972. With the motto Beautiful views – nice prospects, the festival has offered the public a whole month of fun and entertainment.  This year’s edition offered 220 international artisans the opportunity to showw of…

  • Music and the city

    July 8, 2012 /

    As it is well-known that students don’t have a lot of money, going to an open-air concert is out of the question, especially when tickets cost 30 EUR and more. This weekend, on the 7. and 8. of July, Odeonsplatz was the scene of the “Klassik am Odenosplatz München” concerts, which have reached the 12th edition this summer. The event was organised by the Bayerischer Rundfunk and the Landeshauptstadt München, counting more then 16.000 visitors each year. Read my entire post on the LMU Erasmus blog.

  • Greetings from Regensburg

    June 20, 2012 /

     Regensburg este un oraş aflat în estul Bavariei şi cel mai bine prezervat oraş medieval din Germania. Din 2006 se află pe lista monumentelor culturale şi face parte din patriomniul UNESCO.   Oraşul este împărţit în două de Dunăre, iar podurile peste aceasta mi-au amintit de cele din Praga. Podul de piatră, construit între 1135 şi 1146, este cea mai mare construcţie inginerească din Evul Mediu superior din vest care mai funcţionează şi astăzi conform lui W.Volkert. Cu străzile mici şi aerul de oraş mic, Regensburg emană o oarecare familiaritate şi căldură, care te face să vrei să îl cunoşti mai îndeaproape. Vă invit aşadar la o plimbare prin Regensburg.
