Home » Macedonia » Skopje - I'm in love

I arrived to Macedonia yesterday, after looking forward to it for a long time. The reason is a very good friend from Skopje who has tought me a lot about Macedonia and told me what to see. Unfortunately I'm still pretty sick and haven't even had the energy to try and find out if he's home or visit all the destinations he has pointed out. But I do believe after only a little more than a day that Macedonia is surtently a destination for later vacations. I'm in Skopje at the moment staying at a wonderful room with a real shower and cabel-tv. I haven't had a really nice shower in weeks, maybe a year considering the drm I live in in Slovenia. And cabel-tv I can't even recall when I last watched real tv. This surely shouldn't be important when you are travelling, but because of my many breaks ad naps dued to the cold I've actually really enjoyed it. Watched a lot of Discoevery and got tons of knowledge about Nefertiti and can at this moment actually point out on a world map The Garden of Eden.

I arrived to Macedonia yesterday, after looking forward to it for a long time. The reason is a very good friend from Skopje who has tought me a lot about Macedonia and told me what to see.

But I've also had time to see the city or at least the very center. And have I ever told you how much I love Bulgarian people, well Macedonians are just as wonderful. I haven't been as relaxed as I am here for a very long time. I've gotten several smiles on my way through Skopje and I've had a nice talk about football and handball as well as Scandinavia with a local waitor. I also went to my first exhibition on this trip, maybe because I felt so lighthearted and happy. It was great! Beautiful pictures of Macedonian life and people through the century as well as more modern and artistic sculptures. But it was mainly the pictures that cought my attention. This is precisely the kind of pictures I try to take. Funny details on buildings, nice streetfounds and old cars parked madly. Great!

Even though I wont get to see more of Macedonia this time I'm really pleased with what I've seen so far. So much life ...
