About every thing
For a while I haven’t written here.. just wasn’t in mood of writing although I had some subjects in my mind to write. We had about two weeks Christmas and New year holiday. It was a good opportunity to rest and relax. I Prefer having a longer holiday as usual.
As you may heard from media here the weather is really cold. We are somehow freezing. I have had a cold from first week of holiday, couldn’t still get it over completely since the weather is really cold. Sometimes airports are closed for a while and airplanes can’t land or have to land somewhere else instead of its destination. I think traveling in winter is really annoying.
Over the holiday for few days we went to Paris. It was great. For me it was like dream to visit Louver museum since I was 12 -13 years old and this dream finally came true. It was amazing,, watching Monalisa painting and also see so many historical statues which are from Persian Empire, Egypt, Rome and so on...
Paris is one of those cities in the world where is worth to see it at least once in your life. It was strange for me when I saw somebody thinks Louvre has only painting, even one French guy who sits in front of me at our office.
The only thing that I didn’t like it, was metro station, it was really dirty. It is not comparable with Switzerland at all and I don’t expect this, but compared to other European countries where I’ve ever seen, it was really messy.
Although the metro trains were really on time and you didn’t need to wait more than 5 minutes to get the train and you could find enough information but as I said it was not that clean. I would mention this metro was built about one hundred years ago not all of it but actually its construction started that time so it’s quite old,. This might be one reason..another thing is, there has so many foreigners mostly from north African countries specially in Paris. I personally saw one of them who was destroying ashcan in a station of metro just for fun with his friends the thing you never see here. I may upload some photos from Paris here.
It was funny, once we were in the train to go to our hotel place and suddenly I heard the Azan sound from a mobile phone, azan in Paris!!… then I found out it was Arab guy’s phone who has sat beside us. I know many countries have foreigners and immigrants and also I’m a foreigner. My impression is, those foreigners don’t want to change or better to say, don’t want to integrate themselves into new situation or new culture.
.
Regarding the two last post in my blog I would say SVP party won in this referendum and Swiss people voted to ban the minaret construction . Then most of the young and also educated people protested and demonstrated against this result. For sure none of them was killed on the street by the government like in our country . ….For a while the minaret subject has been discussed. They say if we are a democratic country then every one and also every religion should have freedom,…other wise you have to ban the church construction as well. This is their opinion.
It's incredible... how can some people close their eyes and ears, switch off their brain and then try to make decision for their whole life...
