Bolshoy Sochi

This sanatorium has an excellent location, beautiful park and 5 own beaches. But the staff can be uncivil, especially some doctors and beach boys who are not shouting loudly every time some swims over the “swimming zone” which is only 50 meters from the shore. Cleaning is too superficial. Full board but dishes are not varied and not tasty, especially breakfasts; lack of fresh fruits even in summer. The restaurant and elevators in the main building are just horrible. Overall quite poor quality for money#russia #sochi #adler

I had the opportunity to visit Sochi at the beginning of this year. It ended up being one of my favourite trips so far. I was lucky enough to have a local friend that showed me around. I came back home a few kilograms heavier (don’t blame me). The food was incredible, but my favourite by far was borscht and shashlik, shashlik is kebabs cooked over a fire, almost similar to bbq. Our days consisted out of coffee, good food, tasty desserts and beautiful scenery. I felt truly immersed in the culture after spending nearly two months there. I like these kinds of “slow travels”, that way you can really get the feeling of the country and its people. I can’t wait to go visit Sochi again, perhaps next time in summer. #russia #sochi #mynovgetaway#awesomepic

#tripaway If I could add 1 more place to the Wonders of the World, it would be Alberta without any hesitation. The serenity of turquoise lakes and the majesty of the Rocky Mountains would not leave even the most well-travelled tourist indifferent. And you can see lots of bears and chipmunks :) #tripaway
