The story of a dry tree

roundword Leave a comment

All the time I am tempted to make various comparisons between Scotland and my native country, Romania. Unfortunately, in all areas Scotland seems to be above us. Probably this is why you can see more Romanians in Scotland than Scottish in Romania. It’s normal to be so. They have left home looking for a better living, looking for a country to care for her citizens.

Do you know what I’ve noticed? As in Scotland nature is truly respected, that no one even breaks a flower. This thing delights me and makes me respect these people. In my country, the branches of the trees are torn down every spring. All the trees look like somebody wanted to mess with them. I’m ashamed when I look at them. I’m in the mood to hit the people who cut tree branches. Why are not we able to leave nature alone, at least where it does not bother us? Read More

Blog in English for business collaborations

roundword 1 Comment

RoundWord. This blog written in English gives me emotions every day, most likely because I do not know English well and I do not want to distribute it on social networks, people will laugh at me if they notice that I write wrong. In my native language I like to think I’m writing well, but I do not know if I can ever say the same thing about English.

I do not know how, but people are coming in here sometimes and then I wonder what they found, if they liked my blog, if they would come back to read something else. That’s how I was with my first blog written in Romanian and now I’m proud of it, because it grew nicely and pretty well known in that area. I’m proud of this blog. It’s not easy to write in a language that is not yours and you did not know much about until a few months ago.

Honest to be, I hope that this blog will grow as big and beautiful as it is my blog in Romanian, bring me new friends from all over the world and why not?, even collaborations to be thanked for both me and the companies I will support. To get there I will have to work a lot, write a lot more and better in English, gather a community around the blog, get involved and be open to the new one. Read More

Have a nice weekend!

Have a nice weekend!

I caught a small corner of nature in a fascinating period: between autumn and winter. When the autumn still does not leave, but winter is already knocking on the door, eager to get in and blink everything around. I offer this photo and wish you a fairy weekend! From Scotland, dear, for all of you!

And since I’m talking about the weekend, I’d like to ask how you spend it? What do you do when you have days off work? Go to clubs or bars, stay home and read or watch TV, go hiking on unblemished roads, visit your family or friends …? I like to read, but also to walk around. The problem is that my husband does not have enough free days and when he is, he is too tired to walk. So I spend my time writing on my blog and reading books in English.

On this November day, when autumn met in Scotland in winter, I enjoy the warmth of the house, I finish writing this little article on my blog in English and Read More

Thanks for white, Scotland!

roundword Leave a comment

It was kind of cold last night when I pulled my dog out for a walk. I was not scared, because the temperature seemed normal for the end of November. As far as I noticed, there are no big differences between Romania and Scotland on the weather, at least during this time of the year. In the morning and evening it is quite cold, and during the day the weather is warm and the sun shines all around.

We went to sleep late, I was in the warm bed, and the dog in his couch bought from LIDL. In the morning, when I was out with my dog, walking, everything was white, a white as I had never seen in my country. On my other blog I told, in a fun way, how the miracle happened under my eyes: it turned my dog into a pig. In short, because you probably do not understand the Romanian language, I tell you that it stuck in the mud and rolled through mud until the fur became the color of the earth.

Bruno was happy, and I was glad to see that he was having fun. I did not take into account Read More

After eight, I just want love and chocolate

roundword Leave a comment

I do not have to go to the gym or dance, because my legs have strong muscles since I live in this house where the kitchen is downstairs and the bathroom upstairs. It happens to me to forget things and then go down and climb stairs 100 times a day. I’m not making my muscular fever anymore. I learned to treat myself with chocolate. Sweets can drive away any pain, be it the muscles or the soul.

It has been established by the researchers that we can not live without love, that we are only living dead if we do not love. But do these researchers know how much pain can sometimes bring love? Do they know how much chocolate is sold through stores just because one or another relationship broke and people suffer?

But I want to tell you a secret: I always liked chocolate. I eat and when something hurts, and when I’m happy, Read More

Without love we are just living dead

roundword 1 Comment

I learned how to care for souls only when my soul was hurt. The pain I felt in those moments showed me the way to follow. No soul must be injured, no soul must die of too much pain. I have learned that the wounds heal if they are covered with kindness, with love, with care for other souls. For a while I dedicated myself to this purpose, eager to love all the wounds of the world, all the wounds that the earth had ever suffered.

I put my hands to the right and to the left, I shared love and justice for those who needed it, I spoke to the world about the power of love, and sometimes I gave words to those who read. I’ve been looking for words to mourn, but also words that bring pain, words that awaken in people the desire for better and fear that doing harm will get bad. Some have understood my message and seem to have become better, more merciful, more receptive to the pain of others. Others have passed away by life, forgetting that the day will come when the pain will guide them. Read More

Pet carer and dog walker

Pet carer and dog walker
I’m looking for work in the Wishaw area. I always had dogs and cats in the house, I know how to wear animals, I’m patient and I have enough energy to walk dogs, clean the cat litter, feed the animals and care for them as they need. I do not speak English well, but the animals will understand me, because the language of love is universal.

I live in Scotland since 22 september 2017. I understand everything, but I can’t speak very well. So, I try to write every day on this blog and I hope I will learn English one day. Through an agency, I hired at a bakery, to make money. I was not used to hard work in night shift, but I worked four day at the week. When I got my money on the card, I noticed that I was missing my money on a working day.

Those from the agency were shrugging their shoulders. I have to go to the bakery to ask the supervisor to confirm to them that I was at work. In addition, in the second week they called me only two days to work. I’m really disappointed. Read More

I lost my black cat in Edinburgh

roundword Leave a comment

My black cat was a beauty. Whoever saw her fell in love with her. Her green eyes sprouted the hearts, and her black fur nourished her thoughts. She had a slim body, gymnast. She had long legs and sharp ears. Unfortunately, I did not have time to take too many pictures. I have too few memories left from the black cat that was my friend for a day.

I like all the animals and sometimes I get involved in saving them. This time, I ask you to help me, because I lost the black cat in Edinburgh and I want to find her. I miss her every day. Sometimes I wonder if she is hungry, thirsty or cold, if she misses the streets or stays in the house, to the heat. Or could she stay where I left it next to the Edinburgh castle? Read More

I ask you to adopt dogs from Romania

roundword 1 Comment

I do not know if people offer donations for dogs in SPCA shelters, but I liked the way these animals are promoted to find each one of them the owner and the right home. I received a letter at home that I was asked to donate some money to the animals in the care of the SPCA. I entered curiosity on their site and there I could see every dog waiting to be adopted by loving people. I really liked Alfie, a black dog I would have taken home if I had enough money and other conditions.

I invite you to look at the animals in the care of the SPCA and eventually to donate some money, because only with the help of these dogs will they be able to live a good life, they will be protected from the torments that the dogs in the shelters Romania. In Scotland, dogs are well cared for in shelters, they have sufficient food, they are entitled to veterinary services and nobody is beating them, as is the case in my country, where the suffering of the dogs in the shelters breaks your heart.

Donations around winter holidays

Donations around winter holidays

I like to see the world engaging in noble causes, helping without expecting rewards, and for this reason, when I hear about such actions, I write on my blog to make their deeds known. This evening I was at Tesco for a few shopping. On leaving, as I left the store, I stopped for a second in the district with books donated by others. There I can leave as much money as I want and I can choose the book I want. The money that I and others like me get to some people with cancer. This time, I offered only two pounds for a booklet about Martin’s mice.

A little further, I saw a box in which various dog and cat food was collected. Any person entering the store could leave something good to eat for a being that totally depends on us, the people. Unfortunately, I did not buy for my dog, Bruno, except for chicken, and it did not seem right for my donation, because I do not know how long the food donated to the dog gets and I do not want to send something perishable.
