Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful holiday intended in 2009 was Fort Lauderdale - Florida, where I went to drag for years, I remind my beginnings in America in 2000 have been in this wonderful area, but I left it for Colorado and this in large part because, although I love the area and the ocean, I could not adjust the heat and humidity of Florida and then Colorado was much closer to the landscape and weather of the area where I grew in Romania. Whatever wonderful location in which we live - COLORADO, come back often as we welcome the opportunity in South Florida, especially in Ft Lauderdale-Miami area where in fact we have very good friends, nice family Tarpan-Cristina and Marian and many others with whom I worked side by side in difficult times from my beginnings in USA.
