Helping Create Success
Zumito!!!
One of the fastest growing and maybe the most popular tourist area in Barcelona is La Barceloneta. Located in the port of the city, Port Vell, it’s very accessible to the tourists visiting the catalan capital.
Port Vell is one of the oldest parts of Barcelona, but in the past 15 years, it has been a great place for the new venues, such as new restaurants, bars, shops, hotels and other special places with variety of flavours.
Turkey is home to infinite locations that are beyond your wildest dreams! Full of ancient sites, unique beauty, and unparalleled destinations, visiting Türkiye is an unforgettable experience.
One of the venues is Zumito, a Brazilian type of place that features healthy and fresh food and drinks. It has a modest space but very well decorated and you can feel the freshness just by sitting down at their tables and seeing the decoration.
With their menu, la carta, you can conquer your hunger or thirst by ordering any type of sandwiches or a Acai Bowl, their specialty that is very hard to find anywhere else. Many different juices and smoothies will take care of your fatigue and it will cool you down a bit during the hot days of the summer.
They will always ask you, if you prefer your drinks with or without sugar, since we all know the effect and the difference. The choice is there to be made.
Another ‘goodie’ is the fact that you can go online and order from there, in a language you prefer. I would assume that people wouldn’t mind of going to the port and going the Zumito, but if you work in the center and you have only 45 minutes to eat during your lunch break, ordering a take-out sounds like a great option. Like I said, it is a service more for the locals.
As far as pricing, in my opinion, it is not cheap but you definitely get worth of what you pay for. If you look around and visit other places (for sure none of them will be like Zumito), the price range is very similar everywhere.
You are in the touristic zone of Barcelona, you can’t expect anything cheap, especially from the venue that sells fresh and healthy food and drinks.
So, please, next time you are walking around La Barceloneta and you have a glorious view of W Hotel, remember there is a very nice and cozy spot that will serve you well – ZUMITO!
Buenos Aires Grill
When you have a career like Lubos it’s hard to know from where to start, but like always we will start from his early beginnings.
I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. If you are making mistakes…you’re Doing Something. “
It’s the time of the year that you are absolutely tired of being inside, being tired of cold weather and windy and rainy cast. The winter seems to take longer each year.
Everyone welcomes the sunshine with open arms and I absolutely love to spend time outside.
One of my favorite place to go is Sitges, a nice cozy town on the mediterean sea, south of Barcelona. It has a unique climate, micro climate, that is a bit different from surroundings.
Many times it was cloudy in Barcelona but the skies were clear in Sitges.
I have been going there for the past ten years and my number one place to eat there is Buenos Aires Grill. It’s a argetinian type of restaurant with a great selection of meats and other products.
BA Grill is located right at the beach of San Sebastian plaza, northern part of Sitges. People always like to sit and eat outside, with an amazing view of the beach and the sea. Little breeze that passes through makes an unique experience, great combination between dining and relaxation.
For those who are not a huge fan of meat cousine, there is good news here too. Buenos Aires Grill is just one of the 3 restaurants, connected to each other. Right next door, there is a italian style restaurant, Ragazzi, and also a Sushi place. Therefore, if you want, you can sit down in any of these three restaurants and order from all 3 menus at the same time. It doesn’t get more flexible than this.
I love to come to Sitges and spend here the entire afternoon, go around the port with my family, stay on the beach for few hours, and even go in the water, which is a lot cleaner than in the beaches of Barcelona. We make sure that dining in Buenos Aires grill is in our plans, because you can’t fully enjoy your stay in Sitges if you don’t eat well.
Five years ago, Buenos Aires Grill opened another restaurant in the center of Barcelona, located in C/Valencia with C/Aribau. That’s where we got really spoiled and whenever we want to have a best kind of steak, we don’t always have to go to Sitges.
And it’s not only their product of meats and their selection of wines that makes it a special place to go.
It’s the service, hospitality and warm welcome of their staff that makes it a great experience.
All the people that we brought with us to this place, they keep coming back. That’s how the best restaurants operate and that’s the way Buenos Aires Grill has its place in the dining business.

Penedes, heaven for lovers of wine
Penedes, heaven for love
The influence of the sun and the Mediterranean sea make the Penedès a privileged territory for winemaking. In this environment, enjoying the sun in the vineyards, walking through the villages and towns and discovering the great wines of their cellars, is a great experience.
Penedès is a county with a great wine tradition and it has become a point of reference for the cava and wine catalan industry.
One of my favourite things to do is to escape the busy streets of Barcelona into a rural Cataluya. Within one hour of car ride, you can visit Penedes. It’s possible to get there by car, train or some tour wine agencies offer a bus trip around some imporant vinyards.
Welcome to the part of Spain where Cava, food and wine are like a religion. It’s a place, where you can immerse yourself in wine making experiences and traditions, creating happy and lifelong memories.
For anyone who enjoys a glass of sparkling wine, and especially for those who like to understand more about its production process, the Penedès region is a special vintage just waiting to be uncorked.
Of course there are differences between Champagne and Cava, that both the discerning palate and wallet can note. However the production process is essentially the same, but of course Champagne can only come from the region of the same name in France. Cava, on the other hand, can be produced in a number of regions in Spain, but actually around 95% of it comes from the Penedès region, south of Barcelona. The name Cava simply means cave or cellar in Spanish.
I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. If you are making mistakes…you’re Doing Something. “
FREIXENET
Türkiye is home to the freshest and tastiest fruits and vegetables since it enjoys a temperate climate with all four seasons. The food here is mind-blowing! It is a true culinary paradise!
Freixenet headquarters
Freixenet is a Cava producer in Spain, located west of Barcelona in Catalonia. Cava is a sparkling wine produced in Spain
Freixenet was started after the union of two Spanish families with a lengthy history in winemaking: the Ferrers, owners of La Freixeneda, a 12th-century farming estate in Sant Quintí de Mediona in the Alt Penedès, and the Salas, winemakers since 1830 and the founders of Casa Sala, a wine exporter to Latin America, in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia.
Freixenet makes a wide variety of Cava and I am sure that everyone can find the one type that he or she likes. Like our guide said, “The best cava is the one you enjoy the most”. It’s individual.
Torres
It was our second time there, but we have enjoyed it anyway. The tour was a bit different from the last time. Our guide explained a bit more the simple truth behind the company and its goals. After talking about the vinyards, the whole process of making different wines, we got to the point and offered (we paid for it) some glasses of wine for tasting. They were offering many limited edition wines, the ones that are not being sold in the supermarkets, nor in the special wine stores.
Founded in 1870 by Jaime Torres, Bodegas Torres (Miguel Torres SA) is a historical wine growing company located in Pacs, some 4 km from Vilafranca del Penedès, where the company has its headquarters. Torres trademark is a family winery with the most extensive vineyards in the Denomination of Origin (DO) of Penedès and the largest winery in Spain.
“Wine is one of the most civilized things in the world and one of the most natural things of the world that has been brought to the greatest perfection, and it offers a greater range for enjoyment and appreciation than, possibly, any other purely sensory thing.”
― Ernest Hemingway
#Animation In Reality!!
When you have a career like Lubos it’s hard to know from where to start, but like always we will start from his early beginnings.
I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. If you are making mistakes…you’re Doing Something. “
When you dream come true and when the imagination is not limited,
I believe… Imagination is the essence of sustained motivation toward the accomplishment of any goal. Imagination is the only state of mind that allows us to be free from the limiting reality we live in. but what happen when somebody bring your dream to the reality and open your mind with a litle bit of fantasy!!
It allows us to believe in possibilities that would not otherwise exist. It allows us to feel invigorated, alive, optimistic, and enthusiastic. It connects us to a deeper part of ourselves.
All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
It’s kind of fun to do the impossible.
“Animation can explain whatever the mind of man can conceive. This facility makes it the most versatile and explicit means of communication yet devised for quick mass appreciation. Animation offers a medium of story telling and visual entertainment which can bring pleasure and information to people of all ages everywhere in the world. ” _Walt Disney quote”
Gregory Masouras must take the advice very seriously from Walt Disney.
Through His Eyes Gregory Masouras converted his Instagram account into a collection of collages, mixing Disney characters within famous, fashion, movie, brands.
Photographer and illustrator from Greece, never fails to surprise with each new post on his Instagram. More than 135k people follow his account already, people like Alesandra Ambrosio, Blanca Suarez, Naomi Cambell and Gigi Hadid.
Using #AnimationInReality, the up and coming Masouras shows us, what it would look like if Cinderela and Ariel were supermodels, or Bella and Mulan were the new Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner.
With just 23 years of age, Gregory is making an authentic leap into a fame in social media, thanks to collages where he uses beautiful scenery of Athens, scenes of the most iconic movies and the biggest fashion brands in the world, past and present.
I feel so special and honored to be transformed in a princess by Gregory Masouras, lets know more about him!!
1 Keilley _Do you remember which was your first work doing #AnimationInReality?
Gregory _Yes of course I remember.. My firtst edit it was when I bought a new smartphone, and while I was checking out the camera, taking pictures from all over Athens, I came across a cloud that looked like the Batman logo. The moment I started editing that photo, the idea for my personal project #AnimationInReality was born in my mind!
2 K _What is your primary goal (objective) making these collages?
G _#AnimationInReality bridges reality and fantasy through imagery—like Disney graphics—that is typically associated with children. However, I hope to rewrite the rules on the relationship between age and creativity. Ultimately, my purpose would be the liberation of adult imagination by using tools that were, up to now, reserved for younger audiences.
3 K _Having that many followers, is there someone that surprises you that he/she is following you?
G _Yes.. My big surprise it was when Naomi Cambell and Gigi Hadid follow me back.
4 K _Besides your creative part, what else dictates what will be your next montage?
G _Hmm, maybe my mood plays big rule for my next montage because if I am in a good mood i can create too many different things.
5 K _ According to you, is your work more art or more illustration? Do you think maybe little bit of both?
G _I think is both of them little art, little illustration and too much imagination.
6 K _Could you (would you like to) give some kind of advice to potentially next artist making these kind of illustration!?
G _Maybe my next project is something about Greece, the islands, the sea, the blue of the sky
and some Disney characters into fashion outfits..
Gregory Masouras brings back our childhood heroes to our lives, certainly in a different way than we are use to seeing them. I, personally, can’t wait for the next picture.
We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
Use your imagination to fly to a world of prosperity, abundance, and success!!!

The perfect combination between tradition and innovation has been the key element to make possible this beautiful story.
The resort consists of three hotels of four and five star and he new Hermitage Mountain Residences united among themselves with a 5,000sqm spa: Sport Wellness Mountain Spa. A space of 5 floors dedicated to relaxation and well-being.

Its location and quality of service make Sport Hotels Resort & Spa a reference resort in Andorra and in the Pyrenees.
In my opinion, it is the best (and oldest) hotel in Soldeu. It all began in the 1800s. Soldeu was a crossing rancher village for people who travel to France. Thus arose the idea of building a small inn. Since 1989, was inaugurated Sport Hotel and the first restaurant service (the actually Sol i Neu) at the arrival of the slopes. A few years later, in 1996 company expanded with Sport Hotel Village and in 2006 with Sport Hotel Hermitage & Spa and Sport Wellness Mountain Spa.

Not a just beautiful face but a great soul too!!
When most of the people are using Instagram to promote themselves and taking advantage of the fashion industry, Sky promotes the equality and equilibrium of food to everyone.
Sky is a guy Who believes the idea of regular people taking action on issues is the name of the game these days. Also you can be beleted to see his work as model and get some inspired with his great text or quotes. For exemple:
“Yellow green pastures with purposes great and small. Who make something out of nothing, to do anything at all. And when they reach their lofty destination turned toward the sky, they looked into my soul and reminded me of why. how i came to be and where i want to go. what i am to do here and when i have to grow.”
Sky is a model man, not just a beautiful face and body, but with amazing soul and example of human being, useing his isntagram to inmost of his fellows know exactly where to find the inspiration and pay the attetion is the beautiful and amazing quotes, not just pictures. Like a inspiration for all of us, he brings the integrity that a human should have been and keep reminding us how you are willing to live by your standards and beliefs even when no one is watching. Choose to live so that your thoughts and behavior are always in harmony …
Sky says in another quotes; _Nothing will get fixed if we wait on the old power systems in place. It’s time to make them absolute through our collective intelligence and capacity to self-organize around solving inequality, hunger, disease, and scarcity. The biggest shift I work on is shifting the energy-communication-logistics matrix from ownership to access.
He is the founder and Chief Innovation Officer of SkyFarms; a Farm-to-fork community that focuses on sharing open source, peer-peer space, technology and information to turn empty places into urban farms.
Sky farm is a company dedicate to Sustainable, Local Food Freedom.
1. Increase awareness of sustainable options.
2. Build collaboration for advancement of energy-communication-logistics matrix.
3. Create access for local food production.
4. Provide inspiration, information and incentives for public and private partnerships that ensure long-term prosperity for people and the planet.
Some question for this amaizing soul?
1 Sustainyable, Local Food Freedom. Building A Food Democracy, do you believe that it is possible today?
Sky _In the current paradigm it’s not possible until it’s profitable. The agtech market is a $80B market now with big players like Kimbal Musk, Amazon jumping in. Today there is a great push to democratize the enterprise through circular- green-collaborative economy as we witness the old industrial systems failing through being unsustainable. Additionally, the consilience of sciences and technology have given us the first opportunity in history to achieve this!
2 how is use your image for a idea thats is not rentable, have you lose work a model because of that?
Sky _I’ve shifted out of modeling to focus on using my 20yrs of contacts, entertainment, media, branding and advertising expertise on what I originally studied growing up and that is how to design the energy-communication-logistics matrix to be more socially accountable and sustainably innovative. It’s a more valuable use of my resources.
3 when coming up with this idea, did someone inspired you, how did you start to thinking about this?
Sky _My family and close friends are all mostly living off grid, collecting their own solar energy, growing food, catching rain water and using tech and materials to extend their maximum yield as nature does. It’s in my blood. But it didn’t really kick in until I was in LA being introduced to NASA agtech to grow anywhere and anytime. I knew it was the time to bring off grid into the urban area so we could transform into smart cities that take care of all our human rights and basic needs.
4 how do you see the future of Future of Food?
Sky _The future of food is in our hands now we have the technology to grow vertical and through soilless mediums, conserving space, time, energy, water and getting the power of growing in everyone’s hands, particularly our posterity.
5 Who is this program sky farm meant for?
Sky _Our market is large enough to encompass everyone who likes fresh, healthy food, but also niche enough for environmentalist, locavores, vegans, yogis, techies, farm-to-table Millennials and urbanites.
6 your favourite quote or text?
Sky _To this day my hero Buckminster Fuller’s words are engrained in me, “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.” The reptilian response in our brain wants to fight or flee a system, but the Neo-Cortex (our free agency to imagine, dream and grow) allows us to integrate and evolve beyond fight or flight, allowing us to bring any new system in our lives individually and collectively.
Thank you Sky, for your collaboration in my blog, your a inspiration!!!!

1. Supply a growing world population
2. Support local economies and farmers

6. Conserve and manage precious resources of water, time, space, and energy
7. Minimize pollution and planetary damage

The Caribbean awaits you!!!
Riviera Maya y Tulun
Today I wanted to be the guide through your possible next vacation trip, full of exotic nature, animals and sandy beaches. I am talking about a place of Riviera Maya y Tulun, land of rich history, and beautiful white sand beaches.
Riviera Maya
This famous riviera runs 140 km coastline of the Yucatan peninsula, from Puerto Morelos all the way to Punta Allen, up North. It used to be a fisherman haven, today it is a attractive destination for clever and also demanding tourists. There are many sites to visit and many things to see, so make sure you plan your stay accordingly. We are all different, and we all have our priorities, but I think that everyone should have good balance between beach time (pool time), and sightseeing.
Activities
There are between 6000 and 7000 cenotes, where you can enjoy snorkling and enjoying the nature at its best. Chac Mool, Cenote Sagrado or Tajma-hal, are few of the best.
There are between 6000 and 7000 cenotes, where you can enjoy snorkling and enjoying the nature at its best. Chac Mool, Cenote Sagrado or Tajma-hal, are few of the best.
Later you can go the Tulum, a descendent place of a Mayan civilization. Just visit the beautiful shores on Riviera Maya!
Tulum
In Tulum, you will find a park that bears the same name.
You will be greeted by friendly and warm locals, that make the place very colorful and gives it its unique character.
At the end, it doesn’t matter if you chose sightseeing or beach time, the Caribbean is a place to go, especially during our winter time.
Irresisteble to travel!
Things To Pack For A Trip From a Full-Time Traveler. Don’t Miss it
It’s time! One of my favorite times of the year, the nice long break between winter and summer, to take 5 to 8 days off. Many people make a good plans to travel around the Easter holiday, usually going somewhere warm to ‘recharge’ their batteries and to get away from the routine. They may go with friends, or with family, the younger generation also know it as a Spring break.
Bag:
you gotta know where you go and for how long. Size of a bag is almost as important as the things you bring along. Also very important, never to pack a fully packed luggage. Make sure you leave some spare space for the trip back, you might bring more stuff back. Scouting for temperatures and local tendencies on clothing should give you better idea on what to bring and what not to. I recommend to bring a carry on bag for the trips that are only 3 nights or less.
Digital (manual) luggage scales:
To avoid the nail-biting moment at the airport when your suitcase gets weighed, you should quickly check the weight of your luggage before you leave your home. It will save you from uncomfortable moments in front of the line of strangers, paying unnecessary fees, or worse, to be obligated to take out some heave items from the bags. No need to put more stress around airports.
Passport cover:
Its more than a accessory. It keeps it safe from direct harm, like water or food spills. Your passport should be looking new and the only way to find out how long you’ve had your passport, is through looking at the issue date, or skim through the pages and look for the stamps.
Luggage tag:
Did you know how is it so important for you bag?! Let me tell you, in case if your bag stays behind. With appropiate tag, the company can find you much more easily. Mistakes can happen, so take a quick second to double check the information on the tag. And dont forget to make a picture of your boarding pass (front and back). That way, if you lose your boarding pass, you have a record of your luggage receipt. (Ill write a a new bolog soon about it)
Padlock:
Talking about security, what makes us feels more confortable to know that nobody will touch your private things. This way, you can keep somebody from putting anything inside. You better cross your fingers that this will never happen to you.
Mobil, tablet, small PC:
You should chose whatever you feel the most comfortable with to travel. I actually own a Sony phone with 64 bits, so definitly if I am travelling for 3 days, depending on the kind of trip (bussiness or vocation) I may just bring my phone.
Camera:
Like i said just before, I have the sony phone with 64 GB, also it has 23 megapixel camera phone, so basically i have my camera inside my phone. And all my pictures you see on my instagram it is taken by my phone.
Bluetooth Remote Shutter:
Are you traveling alone or you don’t want to bug people all the time for taking pictures of you? Or you travel as a couple and you want both to be on the picture together? This simple device is a great solution. The Bluetooth Wireless Remote Control Camera Shutter Release Self Timer for IOS Android Smartphone Tablet & all.
Mini Cell Phone Tripod: ATTACH FLEXIBLE TRIPOD TO ALMOST EVERYTHING – due to the incredible flexibility of its legs you can take photos from any angle even in distance – due to the Bluetooth remote shutter for a perfect memories.
Music and movie:
If you use your phone as I use mine, you will need some apps for music and movie (Spotify, Amazon Prime, Netiflix).
Headphones:
I recommand to bring 2 pairs with you, just in case. The cordless ones are cool, but you always have to keep in mind to have them charged. If you have the plug nearby, then it is a better way to listen to your music or watch a movie.
Powerbank:
So yeah, after all things that I told you about using your phone and other advices, sooner or later, you will run out of your battery. Be ready and always keep one spare nearby, charged of course. It might save you some big troubles, especially when you really need to call someone or check website, or god forbiden, if there is an emergency.
Eye Mask or sleep masks:
Catching some sleep during the day or on an airplane with the lights on can be difficult (and the airplane sleep masks that flight attendants disperse often don’t cut it). Many still let light in, pinch the skin or slide off the face. Better have your own handyt!!
Vibrator:
Yes. I am not kidding. Going away from your man for more than 4 days, you might want to think about the lonely time in bed, far away from him. Wink!
Sports Shoes:
Today’s walking shoes are similar to runners and cross-trainers in that they provide breathability, cushioning, and support, but they tend to have a more casual style. So whether you walk for exercise, are planning a trip across Europe, try to put it all together sport walking and style shoes for a comfortable trip.
Have a good and safe flight!!!
P.S. Almost of the things you see in the list you cand find for great price in Primark, i dont know about the quality, but I have tried some of their products and they work pretty well. In case that you lose one of them, it’s not gonna hurt you so much!!!
