I love eating eggs for breakfast and experiment sometimes by adding different ingredients to my omelettes. In this post, I share 3 quick and easy Indian omelette recipes inspired by my recent trip to India. 

I just came back from my third trip to India and I was lucky to not have any Delhi belly problems again. It was partly pure luck, a part of the success I attribute to my strong immune system, but the most important reason I think I didn’t get sick is that I followed all the “rules” for food safety in India.  Food poisoning can ruin the whole trip to India, so I wish no…

India is a very popular tourists destination and welcomes millions of visitors each year. If you visit India on an organized trip, the language shouldn’t be an issue. However, if you are planning to go to India on your own, knowing a local language can make your travel experience much better. Most Indians know English to some extent, but not everyone can communicate fluently.

One of the best things about traveling to a new destination is discovering some unexpected things there. I call it a “positive culture shock”. When I went to the USA for the first time, I didn’t expect to be surprised. Sure, it’s different from Europe, but not so exotic as African or Asian countries. As all other Ukrainians of my generation, I grew up watching Hollywood movies and listening to American music. Needless to say,…

Lausanne is one place in Switzerland that I can’t recommend enough to visit. I feel like it is some sort of a hidden gem. Not so many international tourists visit Lausanne, compared to other places in Switzerland and not many people even heard about this city. To be honest, I also didn’t know much about Lausanne before my first trip to Switzerland and didn’t see a reason to travel there. But as for now, I’ve…

If you are planning to move to Germany, Youtube can be a helpful resource to find answers to common questions about life in Germany.
