Do you, ever in your life, need to check the schedule of the next movie, train, ferry, or bus ? How many times do you need to check it, in a day ? Is that easy to “check” ?
I do it a lot and found it a very inconvenient task. You know, first you need [...]

Other than museums and monuments, I love to visit libraries in my trips. It is a very good way to see how the people in the city, country treasure history, culture and knowledge, just by visiting their central library.
