Snack time
18 декабря 2019 г., Чехия ⋅ ⛅ 7 °C
The first few days we had tried the more efficient (time and price) method of having our biggest meal of the day at lunch. It worked well in that it's a much cheaper way to eat out, but as two idiotЧитать далее

Hvala Klemen
21 декабря 2019 г., Словения ⋅ 🌧 10 °C
