Absurd Empire is not a traditional travel blog. It is not a guidebook or a list of recommendations, but a collection of personal journeys where experience, history, and Eastern European reality overlap. The stories move from Moldova and Transnistria through the Balkans to the remnants of the Austro-Hungarian world.

Cities, museums, fortresses, and legends form a region where the past has not disappeared — it simply continues to exist alongside the present. Absurd Empire unfolds these places layer by layer. What first appears strange or absurd becomes understandable when seen up close. Travel here is not escape, but interpretation: an attempt to understand how history and everyday life coexist in Eastern Europe.
