This is one of my favourite places to come to when I visit Bucharest. I met friends today, got wasted and Ioana took care of me. All in all, a very nice day. 

“Ja nie chcę iść pod wiatr, gdy wieje w dobrą stronę. Nie chcę biec do gwiazd, niech gwiazdy biegną do mnie. Nie chcę chwytać dnia, gdy w ręku mam tygodnie. Takie miłe, takie to miłe.“

How my day went: I couldn’t sleep. Then your alarm went off and you couldn’t even hear it. Kyo went into this whole in the wardrobe and then everyone woke up. But in those two hours of sleep I dreamed I was a secret agent. Which tea would you like? Some cake? Please come again. I’m going to miss you. Time to leave. The air is cold. Take the bus, which one, where do we get off? Someone tells us. We walk. Hello, I haven’t seen you since you got married. Coffee? I already had tea. She’s not home yet. She might miss you. Let me check my phone. Oh no. oh no no no. I made a mistake. Noon as in 12, not noon as in 2 pm. Oh no...I have to go. I’m so sorry. Like...SO sorry. It’s ok. Make another call, walk fast. Oh. I actually have time. Go round, which birthday card, this one. Or maybe this one. We didn’t know it was his birthday. Oh. I forgot something for her birthday. I seem to be missing all the birthdays...Here he is! Let’s go in. Oh. It’s packed. She sees me, says “wow” but then she walks away. It’s packed. Let’s go to my favourite place. Ok. You can stay here but only until 5 pm, ok? Ok. One beer and something to eat. Only had tea today. He comes. I look in wonder. I feel like home but in Dianei 4. Let me text the other. Finish your meeting and come. Ok, I’m close to you. Don’t say that (unless you mean it). Finish your bath and come. I need you here. She comes. More beers. You can’t possibly imagine how happy I am to see you, guys. He comes. More beers. It's starting to spin. I write hey, you can come as well. You and your wife. It’s like that time, but much brighter and there are no candles. I’m pretty sure I’m the only one who understood that. But I’m willing to make it work with bright and no candles. Just to get my fix. Let’s go for a smoke. Why do you do that? You look weird doing that. I just want to fit in. I want to fit. It’s like when you eat so much to show how much you missed them, you know? I’m pretty sure I’m the only one who understood that. Back in. Grabbed his apron. Ask for fries a couple of times. Some water. More beer. Cheese comes. These are not fries. He goes out. I take the glass for him. I write all over his stuff. I don’t remember what I wrote, but I was thinking of the matchbox my mum found me. The one with the secret message on. If I wrote about the matchbox, I’m pretty sure I’m the only one who understood that. Out again. Are you happy? I’m happy? She works with some misogynistic people. The ground is spinning but I’m walking straight in front. By the fence. There are some nice flowers here in the spring. I feel I can’t breathe again. Every time this happens. I can’t breathe. But it’s been years. And yet it’s like yesterday. Last chance. Too much. I can be happy with this. That’s all I wanted to hear. I wanted to know I’m not the only one. Let’s look at the patterns. So much pain you gave me about this and now you go and do exactly the same with the Polish stuff. I love that. Time to leave. Manele. Goodbyes. Kisses on the cheeks. This is mine. What are you playing nice on that screen of yours? Another drink at home. I’ve been over myself. So it’s like because it never happened? No. It’s because it happened and I miss it. It’s like a drug. If I stay away, I’m ok. When I come close, I burn. Do you know? I'm in over my head...I'm in over my head. All over again...

Every time I come to Romania and to Bucharest I have to come here. You could say I am a regular irregular. I like this place for the atmosphere, the food and drinks but mostly for the beautiful memories I get every time.

Can any one recommend me some new cool places in Bucharest I should also try next time I come?

Pre-end of the year meetup ^_^ This photo was taken before Laura and Bogdan arrived and before my husband learned how to say “Încă o sticlă, vă rog”
