Welcome to City of Angels!

Our next destination was Los Angeles. Since I remember It has been my dream to visit this place. It finally came true! The flight from
Boston was pretty exhausting, about 6 hours and of course time-change. We arrived to LA at 9 pm, but stil we wanted to start exploring the city the same day, because we only spent there 2 days. Definitely not enough! :( 


Luckily, we could save some money and we didn't have to pay for accommodation. We were living at our lovely host, Eddy. I found him on couchsurfing and he was a perfect guide and knew a lot about his city. He also helped us a lot to get to our places and with findin bus stations and so on. We wouldn't be able to see everything what we wanted without his help. We were living in Downtown LA, very calm area but full of homeless people. That was shock for me at first, even during the day they were sleeping at main streets.

Nevertheless, LA has a long history with film, TV, music and literature. From the world class LA Philharmonic to the Walt Disney Concert Hall, J. Paul Getty Museum and LACMA, LA’s cultural legacy continues to grow. We were walking through Hollywood Blvd, admiring Walk of fame and museums.  And of course, long, 3 hours walk to see the Hollywood sign. It was amazing to finally get there. 
So far, the best moment for us was to tak a rest at Venice and Santa Monica Beach. Those places looked exactly like from the videos and movies. People doing sports, plenty of them on pier and huge space around. I felt that I want to really stay there longer! Ah, maybe we will try next year! But wait... another fabulous place was waiting for us! ------> LAS VEGAS PARADISE :)
