People remembering what happens to them is extremely relevant to their lives. Everyone knowing about their best, high level, pleasant memories is one main principle in living, and universal existence.

Topic is about saying at least 1 or more happy, or interesting memory you experienced anywhere, and focusing on main events in memory. When more people post, more memories are said, and starting up a collection of memories all over Planet Earth.

Try to focus on a memory happening in a time length of 1 to 2 days, and memory is able to include a sequence of main events, or a short brief occurrence. Focus on sense of location, especially in travel. They are not mutually exclusive at all to think about memory, and lots of events, and experience happening to people.


I have a wealth of memories in my life. I am going to say 2 main recent memories for now. I. I went to Palace of Schonbrunn in Vienna Austria, and observed dramatic breathtaking scenery inside a Palace feeling quite different from Palace of Versailles. I then went to surrounding neighborhoods in Vienna noticing even better architecture than I expected, quite colorful, and varied scenery. I then took a bus between Vienna Austria and Bratislava Slovakia in less than 1 hour between extremely different countries. A stark contrast of scenery is self-evident right when people cross the border. I didn’t know Bratislava Slovakia is really magical, and vibrant, charming destination. I walked around mysterious quite foreign, exotic neighborhoods to North Americans, and discovered a 7th floor nightclub bar on top of a building, felt really dream like going there on top However, me and my travelling companion missed the bus back to Vienna Austria and we stayed in Bratislava Slovakia all night up to 5am. We walked around in the middle of the night in neighborhoods we didn’t know, and stumbled upon some discoteques nightclubs, and bars to entertain ourselves inside for some hours. We then went back to Vienna Austria to quickly catch a morning flight to Bucharest Romania. I almost can’t believe flight time is only 1 hour 30 minutes between Austria, and Romania, such vast varied cultures in unique countries.

II. I went to a unique traditional Romanian village right along coastline. Efoire Nord is one of the most incredible, and beautiful villages I have ever visited. There is a surreal experience where I went past independent souvenir stores on a busy street selling unique spectacular items, a 5 floor cafe restaurant bar including VIP room on top decorated in jellyfish lights chandeliers, 20 blocks non stop with zero chain stores busy independent stores, extreme pedestrian friendliness zone, a nice blend of architecture around, an ultra wealthy looking traditional Romanian European restaurant, and traditional Romanian music concert sounding like Turkish music in my time visiting this area of Eforie. I then went to an ultra modern discoteque nightclub in another Romanian village town in close proximity on the same night, and resembling another type of character compared to Eforie.

Awesome makkaraperunat. Not so awesome when waking up the next morning and a half finished plate sits next to your bed. Fell in love with this concoction of french fries, pickles, sausage, mayo, ketchup, ...

I was on vacation in June 1989 and stopped in Munich, Germany. Although it was midnight, there was a huge crowd of people in the main downtown square. A street entertainer was showing off on his high towering Unicycle, and it fell over and nearly crashed into the crowd. The next night, we went in the famous Hofbrua Haus, and it happened to be exactly on the French national bicentennial night, and people were drinking toasts and singing the French anthem.

I was forced to take a selfie with some random guy in a night club in Paris.

I don’t understand why those are the memories you bring up right now? You have lived in Austria, and Hong Kong China. I expect you have a wealth of exciting memories in those countries in Europe, and Asia.


I visited Vienna Austria past summer in Late July, and I experienced a lot in a short amount of time, including one of my favorite series of memories in Austria, and Slovakia: “I went to Palace of Schonbrunn in Vienna Austria, and observed dramatic breathtaking scenery inside a Palace feeling quite different from Palace of Versailles. I then went to surrounding neighborhoods in Vienna noticing even better architecture than I expected, quite colorful, and varied scenery."

"I then took a bus between Vienna Austria and Bratislava Slovakia in less than 1 hour between extremely different countries. A stark contrast of scenery is self-evident right when people cross the border. I didn’t know Bratislava Slovakia is really magical, and vibrant, charming destination. I walked around mysterious quite foreign, exotic neighborhoods to North Americans, and discovered a 7th floor nightclub bar on top of a building, felt really dream like going there on top. However, me and my traveling companion missed the bus back to Vienna Austria and we stayed in Bratislava Slovakia all night up to 5am. We walked around in the middle of the night in neighborhoods we didn’t know, and stumbled upon some Discoteques nightclubs, and bars to entertain ourselves inside for some hours. We then went back to Vienna Austria to quickly catch a morning flight to Bucharest Romania. I almost can’t believe flight time is only 1 hour 30 minutes between Austria, and Romania, such vast varied cultures in unique countries."


I never find street food memorable to me, especially when it’s not Asian cuisine. I don't trust sources of street food, and usually not sanitary enough to customers or noteworthy.

I want to remember real memories in life, and not something in my view that is trivial, frivolous, and not important.
