Conform unor informatii “pretioase”, gasite pe diferite bloguri, pentru a savura cu adevarat culoarea locala trebuie sa ajungi si intr-un bazar numit Haraj bin Gassem, adica un secondhand souk. “Legenda” spune ca acolo pot fi gasite rochiile printeselor, la preturi sub 10 euro, sau rochii de firma (unele cu eticheta inca) care intr-un boutique ar consta peste 7000 rial (adica peste 1400 euro).

One consideration to look into when deciding to spend a holiday or vacation in Dorset is to have a comfortable place to stay in. And the best choices are the Dorset holiday cottages. They are very spacious, cosy, and self catering. The Dorset holiday cottages give their guests a feeling of being at home while actually being physically away from it.

The UN pays for 100 administrative staff and on every renewal of the budget is reduced. The balance of the budget ...

Madaba was pretty good, we went and saw a church, and some others went to Jerash, but I think we all agree that it is a necessary part of Jordan trip. When we left we went to Amman Madaba, through the Dead Sea. You will be amazed by the amount of vegetation is on the way to the Dead ...
[Flickr / Isle of Man Newspapers] With just over 80,000 inhabitants on the island, the Isle of Man offers an intimate tour. The Manx as locals proudly refer to themselves, are revelrous kind, so much for a pint of barrel of beer at a local pub if they are willing to out krump on the dance floor in one of the few on the island night clubs. Or sip a cocktail in Jak Steakhouse in Douglas (Isle of the most ...
