What I am saying is that both sides did bad things. I never said that anyone was a \"good guy\" as you said.
I think you\'ve however used the nun to make your point. Nun couldn\'t speak English.
So there you go its done its made the comment at the end of my story.
Also it was my understanding as to why Serbia feel strong about the area. That doesn\'t mean I support either side. This is what happens when you travel areas you have no idea about you try and grasp a concept of what\'s going on. Some places are easier than others
Thanks for the comment and clarification.
Uh Uh and I forgot- the nun gave you also some false history of the Battle of Kosovo. It was between Othomans and Balkan nations, were also Hungarians, Bosnians, Albanians being christian at that time, fought against Turks. You should read a bit of history of the region before you trust a nun. Sentence says: After shaking your hand with a Serb, count your fingers!
So sad... So, you are telling us here Serbs were not a bad guys, although they murdered around 15.000 Albanians, raped, masacred,expelled 1 million Albanians from their home etc etc. You believe what a Serb nun told you. She understood waht Milosevic said in his speech but 2 million Albanians and the world didn\'t, right? And you believe that Serb nun knows better. The battle has to do with economical prosperity although his speech was followed with a REAL war and crimes against Albanians. Sad to see that a nun of the Serbian church, that played a very chauvinist role during the wars in ex-Yugoslavia: Croatia, Bosnia and Kosovo, managed to convince you that Milosevic, known by the world as the butcher of Balkans was \"good guy\". Feel sorry for you, man! You went there, stayed few days , met a Serbian nun and you \"know who the good guys were\".
This is one of our favorite places on earth! Lovely, lovely, lovely..... you've brought back some wonderful memories for us. You are correct it is a pinnacle of uniqueness.
BRING BACK THE BIFF Nice to see you get off on a good protest...bring back the biff...lucky your camera was not confiscated...not that you would let that happen!
You seem to have walked the same path that I did when I was in Ohrid in 2009. I remembered the amphitheatre, the beautiful churches along the way, and the flag in the fortress. I would definitely go back for the mountains, missed out on that. You're right on the conflict with Greece, I think it's downright petty and childish how both sides behave. You get similar issues all over Europe, e.g. Hungary and its neighbours, Serbia/Kosovo, Turkey/Greece, Ukraine/Poland, Poland/Germany, Italy/Austria, Germany/France, etc., but none (except Serbia) make such a big deal out of it. Macedonia will eventually join the EU, so Greece has to deal with it in any case.

I love the title Its like a plot for a romantic comedy movie so im gonna be following. BB cream (tinted moisturizer with SPF) would make you look instantly younger and fresher! They have a variety for men in more masculine looking tubes and bottles (its less emasculating). Just think of it as a sunblock.
You should have left the beard, mate. Sorry, but on the last picture your head looks like a cucumber. How can shaving cream break??? Like the molecules breaking down into a soup of hydrogen and oxygen ions? Good on ya for blogging about San Marino, I wrote one two years ago. Those microstates need attention as well.
I CAN'T HELP YOU FIND ROCHELLE I am happy to carry your drinks...but I can't help you find...Rochelle...I've just re-committed my marriage in Timbuktu...hope you find her..!
THANK YOU FOR WEARING...THE SHIRT The secret of your success in Africa...you wear your emotions and Socceroo colours on your chest...the shirt is the measure of the man...you are a modern Aussie hero...I would be honoured to carry your drinks...!
Fantastic Summary Will be using this blog as one of my guides for the rest of my journeys to Africa - so thanks for posting.
I'm humbly requesting you to put in my more work here but what about a list of the top 5 most beautiful children? This needn't be just beautiful in a physical sense, of course. You mention Zimbabweans are the friendliest people, what are the other top 4? Perhaps even the 5 top unfriendliest people too - I love lists!
Throughly enjoyed your blogs through West Africa - which included reaching your milestone of 100 countries! Hope you are able to make an easy transition to travel within Europe.
Haha! Loved it, sounds like the guy who ended up in the shit had big whahalla as my nigerian mates refer to nights like that. Glad your sense of humour is switched on still ;)
Thanks mate I do agree but I can understand where they are coming from. I did a story on Guinea-Bissau like the first person in 4 years or something to type up on it. It got less then a hundred views. Yet probably my worst blog entry on Phi Phi island has got 600 or something.

Seems like a pretty nice island to me. Those beaches look great! Hopefully it won't be overrun and spoilt by mass tourism in the future.
