This happened in France. I was walking on the French streets, enjoying the European atmosphere and taking nice photos to remember it. The streets were full of life: street musicians were playing music, and cafes smelled of fresh pastries. Every corner felt special, and I couldn’t resist taking pictures of everything.

I finally made it to Serbia and I’m currently in Belgrade. The city is quite interesting; it feels like a blend of European and Russian influences. The first thing that caught my eye was the flowers on balconies and even in the hallway of the apartment I rented. These little details create a special atmosphere and make you feel different.

I was stuck in traffic for about five days and finally reached the Russian checkpoint. I walked up to the officer — it was a woman, a bit strict. She started asking the usual questions: how old I am, where I’m going, where I work. I said I’m a developer.

Early in the morning on September 8, I left the hotel around 5 AM, when the city was still asleep. It was dark and quiet outside, giving a special atmosphere to morning Paris. I walked through the empty and unlit streets to the nearest metro station, which took about 15 minutes. I went down, got on the train, and traveled to Orly Airport.

In 2018 I started traveling actively across Russia, mostly visiting cities near Kazan with my girlfriend. It was a very exciting and interesting time. Being in new places brought not only curiosity but also some adrenaline. Being in an unknown location gave me strange but thrilling feelings. Every trip was a new discovery, with unique experiences and atmosphere.

One of the evening moments in Barcelona is when the city is bathed in soft evening light. Evening Barcelona fills with a magical atmosphere and lights, creating an indescribable feeling of warmth.

After Barcelona, I go to Paris for two days. The main goal of my trip was to see the Eiffel Tower and other famous landmarks. The day in Paris was cloudy and rainy, but by evening, the clouds cleared, and the sun came out. Despite the weather, I managed to see all the main sights and walked around the city. I was happy with my visit to Paris and feel like I accomplished my goal.

The first time in my life, I visited Europe, starting with Spain because they approved my visa. When I arrived in Barcelona, I liked the city, becouse, cozy streets and interesting architectural buildings. Even in the rain, you can walk under the buildings because the design allows it.
