Hagiesti - Marghiloman Mansion - Seasons

There's house on my block that's abandoned and cold

Folks moved out of it a long time ago 

Looks like it's haunted with the windows all cracked 

And everyone call it  'the house where nobody lives' 

Once it held laughter once it held dreams 

Did they throw it away did they know what it means 

Did someone's heart break or did someone do somebody wrong? 

Well the paint was all cracked it was peeled off of the wood 

Papers were stacked on the porch where I stood 

And the weeds had grown up just as high as the door 

There were birds in the chimney and an old chest of drawers 

Looks like no one will ever come back to the house were nobody lives 

Once it held laughter, once it held dreams 

Did they throw it away did they know what it means 

Did someone's heart break,  or did someone do someone wrong? 

So if you find someone someone to have, someone to hold 

Don't trade it for silver don't trade it for gold


I have all of life's treasures and they are fine and they are good
They remind me that houses are just made of wood
What makes a house grand ain't the roof or the doors
If there's love in a house it's a palace for sure
Without love...it ain't nothin but a house
A house where nobody lives ,without love it ain't nothin
But a house, a house where nobody lives. 
(House Where Nobody Lives Lyrics)


O restaurare care nu se mai termina
Conacul de la Hagiesti a fost construit de familia Marghiloman intre 1869-1874. Cele trei niveluri plus pivnita prezinta 7 camere la parter,  10 incaperi la etaj, un hol central si 2 terase laterale. Constructia inglobeaza portiuni din zidaria unui ansamblu boieresc de la sfarsitul secolului al XVII-lea. Cladirea este tipica pentru arhitectura resedintelor boieresti din secolul XIX. A fost proprietatea lui Alexandru Marghiloman (1854-1925), om politic roman, deputat, senator in Parlamentul Romaniei, ministru in mai multe departamente. Din functia de Prim Ministru, in perioada martie-octombrie 1918, a semnat pacea separata cu Germania din 5 martie 1918.(about ro)

The Casino / Constanta - History for Sale





















Situated at the crossroads of several commercial routes, 
Constanta lies on the western coast of the Black Sea, 185 miles from the Bosphorus Strait.

Built between 1907 -1909 The Casino of Constanta was completed in 1910.
The architect who designed the  building was Daniel Renard, a Romanian architect with French origins, aged 32,  He projected the Casino in the Art Nouveau style, thus being one of the promoters of this artistic style in Romania.
The building has been the most representative in town for decades, a real symbol for Constanta.
Today, The Casino of Constanta continue to watch over the sea, without luxury and glamour .
The building began to crumble from inside.Windows are broken, the doors are blocked with wood and walls shriveled. House for pidgeons.

Loneliness - Life for SALE






How to fight loneliness



Smile all the time



Shine you teeth to meaningless



Sharpen them with lies



And whatever is going down



Will follow you around



That's how you fight loneliness



You laugh at every joke



Drag your blanket blindly



Fill your heart with smoke



And the first thing that you want



Will be the last thing you'll ever need


That's how you fight it



Just smile all the time



Just smile all the time

Wilco - How To Fight Loneliness / Lyrics
