Miami And Helicopters Are The Perfect Match

Visiting Miami and not seeing it from above is a big mistake, I believe. Living in Miami and not seeing it from above is a sin, no lessJ.

Things to do in Miami

Over the years I took numerous helicopter rides in Miami and Fort Lauderdale and enjoyed them all, but now I’d like to brag about one particular tour that wasn’t simply nice. It was Awesome!

If you think Florida is just about beaches, Miami, palm trees and Disney World - you are so wrong! Florida is so much more. In fact, you would need several weeks to explore all its wonders. I've tried to sum up the key places and activities here.

Superfood Smoothie #11 - Tropical Medley

Superfood #11 - Mango

I am all about trying new things and new foods! My recent discovery is elderflower cordial. Amazing aroma and taste - I am hooked and add it everywhere I possibly can. The combination of tropical fruits with elderflower is so good, so unusual, so addictive. And my love for mangoes is eternal :-)

Superfood Smoothie # 10 - Fifty Shades Of Green

Superfood #10 - Avocado

I never get tired of avocados - they are extraordinarily healthy and instantly make any dish appetizing. Incorporating them in desserts and smoothies is what I am into nowadays.

13 Things To Do In Tomsk – Siberian Athens, My Birth Town And The Fairest Of Them All!

Far far away in cold snowy Siberia, hidden away from the curious eye amidst vast taiga forests, there is a small beautiful town called Tomsk. With lengthy severe winters and hit-and-run summers, surrounded by endless kilometers of taiga terra and swamps, Tomsk scares away the weak-hearted. So the townsmen, or Tomichi, if you prefer the authentic name, are all strong and brave, hard-tempered but sweet and good-natured people. That’s how I would start a fantasy fairy-tale story about a little brave girl Katya and her Siberian adventures. J
