In FORBES TRAVEL you can read the following articles by Diana-Florina Cosmin:
,,The International League for Citizens-of-the-World” (Editorial by Diana-Florina Cosmin, Coordinating Editor)
A traveler shouldn’t count his age in years, but in the stamps on his passport. The reason is straightforward: discovering the world, one has the beautiful surprise of finding… oneself.
VACATIONS WITH A PERFUME OF DOM PERIGNON (BY DIANA-FLORINA COSMIN)
Beware if you let George Rusu in on the fantasy of your ideal vacation! After 11 years as head of Romania’s first business travel agency, he’s gonna do what he knows best: create it and sell it to you.
DANCE, COOK AND SCUBA-DIVE! (BY DIANA-FLORINA COSMIN)
Replace Mamaia parties with salsa lessons in Havana and scuba-diving in Egypt, pizza on the beach with cooking lessons in Rome and fitness classes with ,,life-coaching programs” in Greece. The classic summer on the beach has just gone out of fashion!
THE DISCREET SIDE OF EUROPE (BY DIANA-FLORINA COSMIN)
Try to picture Europe as a huge city. Our destinations resemble its old streets that you miss going on a stroll on from time to time. As thorough as your knowledge of the Old Continent may be, we guarantee you’ll be surprised! Among our picks: the bronze figures in Bratislava; Santa Justa lift in Lisbon; St. Mary’s Basilica in Krakow; Iceland’s Golden Circle; the Chartres Labyrinth in France; Alcazar castle in Segovia; Ravenna (Italy’s best-kept secret) and Batumi, the hottest Georgian resort on the Black Sea.
TOURISM ,,BY THE BOOK” (BY DIANA-FLORINA COSMIN)
Delft, the Dutch capital of porcelain and painting is reliving its youth, thanks to the ,,girl with the pearl earring”
ASIA: YOUNG SPIRIT IN A MILLENARY BODY (BY DIANA-FLORINA COSMIN)
Six-lane highways connect 1000-years-old fishing villages to steel-and-concrete jungles. On the largest continent of the Globe, old ,,fragrances” are kept in high-tech ,,bottles”. Among our picks: Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall in Taiwan; Macau (the Las Vegas of China); Pattaya (Thailand); the 600-years old hanoks in the Bukchon neighborhood in Seul (South Korea); the 1.700 years-old Zhujiajiao Village in Shanghai, China; Man Mo Temple in Hong Kong and the Temple of Heaven in Beijing.
ONE MORE TRAVEL COLLECTION (BY DIANA-FLORINA COSMIN)
All great collections are inevitably born from travels. For the Romanian businessman Felix Pătrășcanu, every vacation has the flavor and the ,,bouquet” of a fine bottle of wine.
ENTERTAINMENT ON TWO AMERICAS (BY DIANA-FLORINA COSMIN AND ANDY UECKER)
What do Maradona’s country, Elvis Presley’s Memphis and Reno slot machines have in common? Each of them is guaranteed to provide you with an entertainment experience nowhere else to be found in this world. Among our picks from the two Americas: Rojo Tango salon in Buenos Aires, the dancing fountains in Las Vegas; Reno and Lake Tahoe; the 128-meters-high rollercoaster in Sandusky, Ohio; Cervantino Festival in Guanajuato, Mexico; the hula dancers of Hawaii; Memphis’ marching…ducks and the ruins on Riviera Maya, Mexico.
AIRPORTS MADE TO STEAL THE SHOW (BY DIANA-FLORINA COSMIN)
In case you were disappointed of having to ,,kill” a couple of hours in-between airplanes, we offer you a more exciting alternative: take a photo by a golden-plated contemporary sculpture, gamble 100 dollars on the slot machines or…take a walk in a tropical garden. That can be done in the five breathtaking airports we’re introducing to you.
TRACK DOWN YOUR FAVORITE MOVIE HEROES (BY DIANA-FLORINA COSMIN)
Forget Fontana di Trevi, the castles on the Loire or Mozart’s house! Now, tourists are queuing by the ,,Married-with-children” fountain, the house in Mrs.Doubtfire or the Guldenburgs’ castle. We’ve picked the hottest movie-destinations in the world, among which: Sound-of-Music Salzburg; Chicago’s gangster movies; Tunisia’s Star Wars sets; London with its…Notting Hill and the two Meccas of the American movie-industry: San Francisco and LA like you’ve never imagined them before!
