Glöm aldrig Srebrenica!
Another day of studying equals another day of procrastinating.
The course I’m doing right now at the University of Queensland is about International Peacekeeping and focuses on the work of the UN around the world.. This picture that I took in Sarajevo fits well into the context: never forget Srebrenica. Moving on is one thing, forgiving another, but forgetting the mothers & daughters left alone after one of the biggest massacres of our time is just a big no-no.

Lucky
How much I would give for my 13 year old poodle to be well again. Her sight is gone, her smell, her hearing, her teeth.. and now she had an epileptic seizure scaring me to death. I was convinced she was dying in my arms. Such a feeling of helplessness.
I’ve had her since I was 10. That’s forever.
You don’t put old blind people to sleep, and she’s been blind for 7 years now. I refuse as long as she shows signs of happiness.. she loves us, she loves physical contact and attention.. and that seems to be all she needs. As long as she isn’t in pain and wags her tail, things are okay.
I just wish she could run around all crazy like she used to. My dearest Lucky, just like a babysister that always understands.
Home & Pictures
I’m back in Malmö.. feels good!
I’ve started to upload the pictures.. there’s quite a lot of them.. like 2500something.. haha
Tonight I’ll provide you with two facebook albums:
Budapest:
& Belgrade:
Enjoy, comment and wait for the rest. :)
The next one will be.. *drums* KOSOVA! Don’t miss it.
For those of you that don´t have me on facebook, I will upload the pictures to flickr soon.. not today.
And the trip? It was fantastic and better than I could have ever expected.. Olli proved to be a great travelling partner, photographer and language-teacher.. Ollis family was really fantastic and I am really happy to have met them.. the timing was perfect, the weather was great.. and our budget somewhat got under half of what we had expected to spend.. mostly thanks to the fact that we got hosted and got to stay in Ollis grandparents apartment in Makarska and didn’t spend a dime for a long time in CG.. plus some of those great deals on accommodation!
One month of travelling around, 8 countries, the greatest of foods, the best of experiences..?
600 euros each. All inclusive. !! Yay!
And don’t go “I spent half of that in India/Bolivia/Ethiopia” on me now, this is Europe.
Now I already miss the family in Crveni Grm.. the food.. the weather.. but mostly Olli.. this is the first time in over a month that we’re separated since he left for two hours to get us bustickets in Budva..
This is not okay! I miss you!
Laku noc
And right, I got them to stamp my passport in Copenhagen..! haha
