I lived an enchanted childhood. Yet I was born in communist Bucharest, five years before the 1989 revolution and the fall of what Churchill coined and the Western history books loyally picked up on as “the Iron Curtain”.

I’m the greatest nostalgic you’ll ever know in this life. I treasure things that most people don’t even notice, let alone remember and I make history out of things that most would label as junk.

Two speakers – one from the Israeli side, Robi Damelin and one from the Palestinian one – Ali Abu Awwad. Were I to summarize the meeting with Robi Damelin and Ali Abu Awwad in just one sentence, I would say that it was probably the most remarkable lesson on peace and philosophy of life that I ever experienced.

Yes, I’m that bad. Hey…who said damsels are supposed to be easy to handle? And yes…love should prove itself. I’ve had plenty of empty words and void promises, so I’m not accepting anything less than love. True love. Do you think you can handle that or would you prefer to fetch the key? ... Mai mult
We are always in a quest for something, a quest for the ideal outfit, the ideal job, the ideal relationship. And we are postponing happiness to the moment when all those objective conditions will have been met. ... Mai mult
