Las Vegas

What is your lucky number?

Roll the dice! Do you have your lucky number? How much do you wish for it to come out and win? The love of your life, wealth, dream career, or maybe a trip to Vegas?

Las Vegas. The city that never sleeps. But unlike the bustling New York, all the temptations unfold within a few acres, on one street. A city that captivates you with its artificially built diversity on every corner of the famous Las Vegas Strip, in the Nevada desert. Where women undress at the drop of a hat, and men undress them with their eyes for a selfie on Instagram, and some beauties remain in memory as sexy police officers or superheroes. Locals hand out cards with topless women or invitations to the hottest pool party in town. People sip on XXL cups of piña coladas or margaritas.

After a few hours of walking across the bridges that connect the hotels, you might come across an exhibition of Tesla cars, the Omnia dance club where resident DJ Steve Aoki performs this year. The world-famous Hell's Kitchen by Gordon Ramsay. The iconic Bellagio hotel with its renowned singing fountain, or a few meters away, the charismatic David Copperfield will bring a smile to your face. Americans yearn to fly to Europe, and here, in the form of iconic miniatures, they suddenly find themselves at the Eiffel Tower, Arc du Triomphe, or take a gondola ride in Venice at The Venetian hotel.

However I may evaluate this city, every time I come here for a few days, I feel the scented, bustling streets, that energy, the mix of luxury and poverty, and the party mood completely engulfs me.

And when I end the day, looking at the gamblers in the hotel casinos and roll the dice for my lucky number, I will hope that fortune awaits me too.

After all, I'm in Vegas, baby!
