  "A data scientist and a ballerina meet in an ice cream queue in Rome, fall in love, date long distance and the rest is history... No, this is not the premise of a new rom-com but the start of Vitality Travel's first love story." - Vitality News 
  It sounds like a scene from a movie 
  A man meets a woman in Rome, introduced by a mutual friend. They chat while they order gelato and accidentally choose the same flavour. They laugh about it and spend the rest of the week getting to know each other. They fall hopelessly in love and a year later, they're getting married. 
  Love at first curtsy... 
  It isn't a movie, but the true story of Irakli, a South African Data Scientist, and Tamar, a Professional Ballerina.  
  Both are 29 years old and were born in Georgia in Eastern Europe. Irakli's family immigrated to South Africa in 1994 while Tamar had spent her professional career travelling around the world, performing across major stages in Italy, France, Germany, and the United States. 
  Irakli says it was a last-minute trip to visit a childhood friend. But little did he know who else he would bump into.  
  He met Tamar in a gelateria and after a ballerina curtsy, it was love at first sight.

  This book includes several books about the following topics: 
  Age of Enlightenment - Finally… finally, humanity began to wake up. Finally, they decided to take science, knowledge, politics, development, multiple angles and perspectives, and the details of our everyday lives a bit more seriously. For centuries, raw and primal urges and principles had taken hold of conquerors, officials, and governments. 
  Renaissance - When we think of the Renaissance, we often think of paintings. And indeed, many painters and sculptors were part of the artistic transformation the Renaissance caused. But there was more. The Renaissance basically formed a period of collective enlightenment and freedoms that put an end to certain tyrannies and false notions from the Middle Ages. 
  Claude Monet - Claude Monet has been the icon for the impressionist movement. Painting vague strokes of color and contrast, water, and flowers were typical. Other aspects of the art weren’t as clear but were just as important, nonetheless. 
  Pablo Picasso - Picasso’s work is famous. His art is intricate yet bizarre. Many people have stood still over the wonders and simplicity of cubism and surrealism and have either been disgusted or amazed by it. 
  Vincent van Gogh - Vincent van Gogh is undoubtedly one of the most influential painters of the end of the 19th century. His style was unique in that he used all types of colors in a painting that didn’t show those colors in reality and somehow, he still made it work and look like an actual shape.  
  Michelangelo Buonarotti - Michelangelo had a vision, a dream, and the talent to carry out those imaginations. His life, in our perspective, is a compilation of great works of art, architecture, sculptures, paintings, and intricate movements, contrast, colors, and anatomy of the human body.

  Nikola Tesla was a Serbian-American innovator, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, and futurist who helped establish the contemporary rotating present (AC) electrical energy delivery system. 
  Tesla, who was born and raised in the Austrian Empire, studied engineering and physics without getting a grade in the 1870s and acquired useful experience in the early 1880s operating in telephone and at Continental Edison in the nascent electrical power business. He relocated to the USA in the year 1884 and ended up being a naturalized person. Before setting out on his own, he worked for a brief time at the Edison Device Works in N.Y. City.

His rotating present (AC) induction motor and associated polyphase AC developments were accredited by Westinghouse Electric in the year 1888 and were the foundation of the polyphase system that firm consequently advertised. 
  Let’s learn more about this nutty professor, this obsessed genius who was way ahead of his time.

  The honeymoon – no other holiday inspires so much anticipation of blissful happiness, nor such potential for catastrophic disappointment. Using extracts from fiction and from real-life diaries and letters, Honeymoons: through writers' eyes takes you on a rollercoaster of an emotional journey into the heart of human longing, to examine what it is we are seeking, what we expect, when we embark on life together. There are real journeys to Pisa and Rome, through Switzerland and India and to the moors of Yorkshire. We hear about the consummations of royal weddings; and the dire consequences of marriages of convenience and those entered into with calculation. The road is littered with pleasures, great and small, not to mention surprises, disappointments, cads and one or two corpses.

  The incomparable George Hamilton returns with a superb offering of travails and anecdotes spanning his five decades on our airwaves and on our screens, always at the heart of Irish culture. 
  Picking up where his first offering, The Nation Holds Its Breath, left off, George continues to illuminate the path that took him from the Cregagh Road in Belfast to the most extraordinary locations across the world. Whether going behind the scenes of his beloved Lyric FM show or reliving the dramatic events of the 100-metre final at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, the reader will be captivated once more by George’s storytelling as he expertly weaves tales and paints the most evocative pictures. 
   
  Sport, music and travel are intertwined throughout – George’s love for all three evident on every page. His writing style is consistently surprising; the reader is never quite certain where George is taking them but few will be able to resist being caught up in the stories and going along for the ride. 
   
  The Hamilton Notes is a delightful manifestation of that old adage – ‘It’s not the destination, it’s the journey.’ And there could be no finer raconteur to guide the reader along the way.
