... and the world

... και ο κόσμος

New York City is the place to be.Whatever you 're looking for, you 'll find it there.You will need dozens of hard-walking-days to explore this huge city. Museums, reastaurants, skyscrapers, shops, theaters... you name it! As they say: if you can't find it there, you won't find it anywhere. It is definately the capitol of planet earth. Whatever you 've ever seen in your life couldn't possibly match the beauty of one nightfall in Manhattan. There's no place like this place!

Bethlehem is the place where Jesus was born. All of you who start thinking of Christmas as soon as summer is over, owe it all to this very place.

Budapest is an amazing crossroad between east and west. Just one nightwalk along the river will make it hard to ever leave this place.

Paris is definetely the most beautiful European capital. Hundreds of museums, parks and historical places can keep you sightseeing for an eternity. Your days and nights will never be enough to visit every cafe and bar in the city. And of 'course Eurodisneyland is there for all kids between 1 and 101 years old.
