 I am not Slovenian by nationality, I belong a little bit more to the north-east (Serbia), but somehow, meeting this country, was meeting a part of me and my heritage.
I am not Slovenian by nationality, I belong a little bit more to the north-east (Serbia), but somehow, meeting this country, was meeting a part of me and my heritage.Us, the ones born in this part of the world, we are blessed with a sort of nostalgia, that we carry with us everywhere we go. The coldness of the Alps cools it down a little, but only apparently, because from what I learned until now, Austrians themselves are a little nostalgic too...
Happy Thursday!
 
 
 
I've been thinking a bit about national identity recently - when I was in Romania and Moldova my identity felt very positive, whereas in Scotland I feel my main identity marker isn't that I'm English but that I'm not Scottish. And when I'm in England somehow I don't know who/what I am!
ReplyDeleteHow far back in your heritage is the Slovenian?
I've never been anywhere near where my roots come from (Ireland), but that beautiful picture makes me nostalgic just for a different, slower way of life.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, I love the reflection.
