Presiunea de a fi fericit
Read more: Presiunea de a fi fericitValuri de sinucideri. Tot mai multi oameni tineri, bogati, “de succes”. Nu e ceva defect cu treaba asta? Cum definim succesul noi astazi? Ni se inoculeaza peste tot ca viata noastra ar trebui sa fie spectaculoasa, bogata, independenta, libera, pe culmile fericirii. Oare nu tocmai presiunea asta de a fi fericiti ne arunca in bratele…

Read more: From Transylvania to Auschwitz, by bikeIn memory of Eva Heyman. Who’s Eva Heyman? Don’t worry, I hadn’t heard of her either, until this friend of mine from Cluj, Romania, shared with me his dream of pedaling to Auschwitz in her honor.

Read more: Romania 2014 – First impressions – Cheile Nerei National ParkVisit, enjoy, and PLEASE take your garbage back home with you… especially during high season. (Aviz mai ales plimbaretilor in espadrile, cu berea si tigarile (!) dupa ei. Daca ati putut cara dozele pline cu bautura si lubenitele de 5 chile in sus, e asa de greu sa carati cojile şi ambalajele goale in jos? Ati mancat,…

Pilula de râs
Read more: Pilula de râsDovada de netăgăduit a faptului că plutocraţia viitorului nu mai cunoaşte loialităţi naţionale. Eu, către fiică-mea (3 ani) născută şi crescută în Germania: “Tu ce eşti, româncă sau nemţoaică?” Ea, chibzuind: “Emmmm…. Prinţesă!” Eu, intrigată: “Serios?

A few things that get on my nerves
Read more: A few things that get on my nerves1. Excessive proliferation of technology. Do you know that old engineer joke? ;-) What do engineers and dogs have in common? They both have intelligent eyes but can’t express themselves… And what’s more, they’re trying to change the whole world in their image. Applications, gadgets, the “Internet of things”, remotely operated toilet paper rolls… They…

Pilula de râs – despre cârnaciorul fermecat şi alte bazaconii…

Acest tărâm magic… rezervat, evident, numai copiilor, că noi părinţii mai rar avem parte de el. :-) Câte ritualuri nu se leagă de chinul ăsta de toate zilele, cât nu te strofoci în crize de nervi cu tremurături ca să poţi în sfârşit să-ţi admiri odraslele pufăind liniştit şi să zici: “Doamne, ce frumoşi sunt……

Perspectives for personal development
Read more: Perspectives for personal developmentWhen the road to change seems full of roadblocks, adopt a different perspective. Just like a photographer circling his subject to find her best side, just like a writer looking for the revelation of something strikingly original and true, to reach awareness, look at things from a different angle. Ask the right questions. Sometimes we…

All things German
Read more: All things GermanWell, maybe not all of them. But a few. What on Earth is the deal with this weather in July? To paraphrase an old Romanian joke, of the 4 seasons typical of this latitude, Germany only has 3: rain and… more rain. :-) I realize this is subjective. From my window, I can see people…
