8th Day: Bucharest

1 July, 2017 by VeroBello

Our hotel was really comfortable, and since it was our last day in Romania, we decided to wake up late. We left the hotel almost at noon, walked to the Parliament Palace, passing through the Cismigiu Garden, super excited to visit this building, and it turns out that it was closed. What a disappointment. Parliament Palace Built at the special request of Nicolae Ceausescu, leader of Romania’s Communist Party, the colossal Parliament Palace – formerly known as “People’s House” ( Casa Poporului ) – […]

2 Days in Salamanca

14 March, 2017 by VeroBello

There is a saying in Spain that says “cuando en Marzo mayea, en Mayo marcea”…Which means that when we have the May’s weather in March, we will have the March’s weather in May. Having said that and looking at the May’s weather now in March, we had some quick breakfast at home before heading the road from Madrid to Salamanca to spend the weekend in this UNESCO World Heritage City. Day 1 Our trip started at 13:00, after driving  two […]

Israel-Palestine-Petra

21 February, 2017 by VeroBello

After finding out we have 2 days off (Tuesday and Thursday) at the beginning of December I turned on my “travel alarm” and just a couple of months before December we found this very good deal to flight to Tel Aviv, direct from Madrid with Iberia, for 250 euros. Just like that, I started planning our “Israel-Palestine-Petra trip” with my friend Caroline. I read lots articles, contact the embassy of Israel in Spain to ask for recommendations, which they kindly […]

1st Day: Madrid to Jerusalem

21 February, 2017 by VeroBello

Our day started as a normal working Friday in Madrid at 7:00am, but this time with the amazing anxiety we get before traveling to an unknown place.  Our flight was direct from Madrid to Ben Gurion Airport (Tel Aviv) with Iberia, leaving at 10:35 am and arriving on Tel Aviv at 16:25. The flight was really good, lots of empty seats to lay over, good meal in terms of airlines meals and the best part is that we only paid […]

2nd Day: Jerusalem – Palestine

21 February, 2017 by VeroBello

Today is our official first day as tourists in this country, so we woke up around 7:00am, got ready and headed to the Damascus Gate, which is 25 minutes walking from our apartment. Once in there it was really easy to find the bus station, just in front of it, but we went first to buy some cookies for breakfast in the mini market next to the station. Once in the station we turned left and saw the first bus, […]

3rd Day: Jerusalem (Old City)

21 February, 2017 by VeroBello

The ancient land of Israel has thousands upon thousands of archeological sites, 2000 being in Jerusalem only. I believe you can spend a week in the old city and I am pretty sure it wont be enough to get to know it. But if you don´t have that much time, my recommendation is to visit: Walk the “Via Dolorosa” where Jesus took his final walk from the place of Pontius Pilate’s sentencing to Golgotha Dome of the Rock (Al-Aqsa Mosque), […]

4th Day: Jerusalem (Mount of Olives)

21 February, 2017 by VeroBello

Today the day is a little tight because we want to walk around the Mount of Olives and pick up our rented car at 15:00. Let´s see how it goes… First of all we said good-bye to our lovely airbnb room, took our bags and started walking to the AVIS office, which was very close to our airbnb, but of course, a cozy little restaurant was in the way to it and we could´t avoid ordering breakfast and a turkish […]

5th Day: Masada and Dead Sea

21 February, 2017 by VeroBello

A brief history The fortress of Masada was built in the year 30 BCE by King Herod, whose architectural feats have left their mark throughout the country. At the beginning of the great revolt against Rome in the year 68 CE, the site was conquered by a group of Jewish zealots, and Masada became their last stronghold. In the year 72 the Romans besieged Masada and succeeded in reaching the steep fortress after constructing a huge earthen ramp on its […]

6th Day: PETRA

21 February, 2017 by VeroBello

Beside my awful experience yesterday with cats chasing me, I had a good night sleep, and I was able to wake up at 5:45, called a taxi (11 euros) and be at the Wadi Aqaba Jordan Border at 6:30. Crossing the Israel-Jordan border By having a european passport we were able to apply to the 3 day visa at the border. To cross it you have to: Pay 106 ILS in the Israel site Go to the Israel passport control. […]

7th Day: PETRA

21 February, 2017 by VeroBello

Yesterday left us really tired but excited for being in Petra. Today we woke up at 8:00 am, because we read that the best hours to take pictures of The Treasury are between 8:00 and 10:00 am. So, after breakfast, we went straight from our hotel walking to Petra, using the 2 day tickets we bought yesterday. It doesn´t matter the time of the day, no picture can reflect the beauty of this site. No wonder it is one of […]
