Haight Ashbury – For old hippies

Once famous for hippies, Haight Ashbury has been able to keep its charm while it has been commercialized and most of the shopkeepers care more about money than love.

The neighbourhood is pleasant and there are a lot of shops selling clothes, records, generic stuff and peculiarities. You can get t... More >

Japan Center – Big in Small Japan

Japan Center is a small piece of Japan in the middle of San Francisco. It's not the real thing as there are American influences, but sometimes you don't see any Westeners there.

The place has a soothing atmosphere, so it's a nice destination for (short) leisure strolls. There is also a few Japane... More >

Lombard Street – The Crookedest Street

San Francisco is built on several hills and they can be very steep. Some of the streets have to be cut, as there would too much drop in one block. Lombard street between Hyde and Leavenworth streets looks like an Alpine road, it swirles back and forth in its tiny space.

The road looks magnificent... More >

Worth of Visit, Miami, FL, USA (reviewed 2008)

Metromover – Movement of the people

Miami's public transportation system has one unique perk: free Metromover trains in the downtown. The trains are frequent, clean, and air conditioned train cars sure beat walking in the humid tropical weather.

Miami Beach – Urban beach

The beach at Miami Beach is something that you need to experience before you can understand what does it feel like to take a few steps from urban jungle into white sand beach.

Museum of Contemporary Art – Art at downtown

The Museum of Contemporary Art is what downtown Los Angeles has to offer for people interested in arts. For such a big metropolis, it is not that much. If you tune down your expectations from MOMA or San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the museum is quite a nice experience.

As name implies, the c... More >

New England Aquarium – Fish and friends

There are seals, penguins and huge number of fish in the a... More >

Nob Hill – Posh neighbourhood

Nob Hill is one of the famous San Francisco hills, very close to the city centre and Union Square. The hill hosts a park surrounded by a bunch of top-class hotels with excellent views to the city and the bay and Grace cathedral -- once imposing and now dwarfed by the towers.
