Museum of public transport and streetcar festival, Letná Park and electronics at night, Kafka and the Museum of Modern Art, the Charles Bridge and water, heat and details.
Some places I've been
Notes form the places I've traveled.
Juodkrante, Nida, Preila, March 2019
Bays and sunsets, Hill of Witches and sculpture-creepiness, forests and black houses, wind in the crowns and the sound of the sea, the Lithuanian side of the spit and the tourist off-season.
Rome, October 2018
Architecture for all tastes and piles of garbage, old trams and a terrible transportation system, sun and hail, non-Catholic cemetery and MAXXII, Vatican and rip-off, asylum and the Order of Malta.
St. Petersburg, August 2018
The Grand Model and the queues at the Sberbank, the Hermitage and New Holland, the Summer Garden and Palace Square, the embankments and bridges.
Curonian Spit, June 2018
Ecological tax, bird ringing, dancing forest, “run over” village, dunes and traps for them.
Krakow, April 2018
The former capital of Poland and Wawel Castle, squares and bubbles, an archaeological museum and photo gallery, horse-drawn carriages and views from the towers, an alley of stars and parks.
Riga, March 2018
Noisy advertising and casinos, black houses and narrow streets, the Riga Cathedral and not bad modern architecture, the military museum and the former KGB building, the house with the kitty on the roof and the cutest pole.
Warsaw, December 2017
The old city and the lanterns, the fortress and courtyards nearby, the Copernicus Science Center and the model of the solar system, the skyscrapers and the Palace of Culture and Science.
Gdansk, October 2017
Cool facades and deep puddles, narrow streets and catholic churches, a World War II museum and a restored city, a Ferris wheel and pierogi.
Kaliningrad, August—September 2017
Greens and traffic jams, the sea and shuttles, parks and joggers, the House of Soviets and devastation, old architecture and a parody of European construction.
Kazan, July 2017
Good public spaces and the embankment, the Kul Sharif Mosque and the “Falling” tower, the Kazan Kremlin and cute details, the Agricultural Palace and the Black Lake Park, promises and iterative development.
Yekaterinburg, May 2017
“Shaverma” and “shawarma”, red line and Vysotsky, constructivism and devastation, Yeltsin and love lock, city profile and monotony.
Prague and Karlovy Vary, January 2017
New Year's decorations and fairs, public transport and the “Railway Kingdom”, trdelnik and hotdogs, castles and cathedrals, Karlovy Vary and the view from above.
