A wonderful voyage

When thinking about my best vacation, my mind goes back one year ago, when I spent Christmas in Timisoara. It was the first time when I have celebrated Christmas in another place but home. In fact, the only thing known there was my mother, the main reason of my “ruined fest”. You should’t understand me wrong, the whole experience was absolutely fantastic. Since then, I used to spend Christmas eve by decorating the Christmas tree, making cookies and other pies, listening to carols and eventually, being in bed at 10 watching the “Home alone” movies with my cat. So, I’ve been spent that eve in train with my mother eating yogurt and cereals.
Finally, at 2 o’clock we were there! Happy us. “Woow!” we said in the same time. We couldn’t believe our eyes. The whole city was like burning. There were everywhere only very small and shiny lights. Since that moment I started to feel like living in the “Home alone” movie, walking on the New York streets. The only difference was that I had an awesome company, my mom, my best living partner.
The next day, 25th of December, first day of Christmas, we woke up early. The breakfast was waiting for us and so the city. We didn’t need to much time to get ready. Mom’s conference would had to begin at 7 p.m. We had the whole day to explore the town. So there we are, walking on the Timisoara’s streets, making pictures with happy men dressed like Santa, eating gingerbread and listening to street carolers.
When thinking about Timisoara, I know that is one of the biggest cities from Romania but then, I felt like home, even if it is placed on the other side of the country. I felt like I knew each street, we could never get lost. I visited the entire city, from “The Fountain with fishes” to the Art Museum and so on.
At 7 we were tired. We didn’t realized since that moment how tiresome was our walk. We finally prepared and gone to mom’s meeting. The night finished also wonderful by receiving mom’s favorites psychological books and with the thought that I should never be afraid to try something new, and getting out from my “comfort zone ”.
The experience was awesome. I could never forget that Christmas. It will remain in my heart forever, as Timisoara, my soul city. And so, I promised that some day, I will live there and why not getting old there.
