Various hikes I've taken

My two brothers in law are fans of horse riding and last week they invited the rest of the family to join them for a day of horse riding. They encouraged us with fun tales of how of them fell off/was thrown off a horse. Having not done anything

I have to admit that I haven't seen too much of my home country. I've set foot in at most half of the counties and I've actually visited and done touristy things in even fewer of them. I've visited more countries than

Six years ago I posted how beautiful are Șuncuiuș and Vadu Crișului. In the meantime, Șuncuiuș has grown to be all the more beautiful, because my wife is from there. I've done a lot more hikes in this area and seen a lot more of the great vistas

After a half year break, the little band of hikers from our church decided to do some via ferrata routes, in the Vadu Crișului and Șuncuiuș area. I’ve wanted to go on Via Ferrata hikes for a long time. I first heard of them when I moved to Switzer

The next target for our hikes was Peștera Bătrânului (Old Man’s Cave)1, which is close to where my parents-in-law live. We knew the cave was closed to tourists, but the views on the way there were supposed to be pretty. We left on foot on a Saturday morning

Almost a year later, I went again on a winter hike, with the same group of friends, to the "Biserica Moțului" Peak, close to Padiș. This time I was one of the drivers, so I went with our little Skoda, with 3 other guys. Because this hike was

Some friends in Oradea are big hikers. They had plans to go to Curcubăta Mare, the highest peak on a 500 km radius, being at 1849m, but they were always foiled by weather. Finally they decided to go last Saturday, because the temperature had risen slightly and

Uetliberg is a very popular and small mountain near Zurich, 869 m high, which I have already visited twice and I will probably climb many more times (at the very least when I have friends coming to Zurich). There is an 80 m high tower at the top, and there

Weekendul trecut am fost la niște prieteni de la biserică în Vad și am mers în câteva drumeții pe dealurile din preajmă. Pretty. Hard. Peisajele sunt mai frumoase ca cele din Mișca, dar acolo nu îi niciun deal mai mare de 100m față de sat. Aici... parcă nu se mai

Acum aproape doi aniam făcut o plimbare lungă și frumoasă prin satul copilăriei tatălui meu. Azi a venit timpul pentru o revizitare :)))) Dacă data trecută am dat în fundături și am rătăcit mult, acum drumurile cunoscute de tati mai existau, doar că au fost năpădite de buruieni, iarbă, „spini și

Ieri a fost probabil cea mai tare zi din vacanța asta pentru mine (bine, poate dacă mă prind cum să implementez și să folosesc autoencodere și RBM-uri în theano, o să fie o zi și mai faină :D): am fost la Arka Park, la vreo 20

It looked even better in real life :-" De obicei eu nu mă prea dau în vânt după natură and stuff. S-a întâmplat destul de des să mă uit la poze cu peisaje „superbe” și să zic doar „meh” (și a fost întotdeauna un mare mister
