Skol, en daar wordt weer een proost uitgebracht. Denen houden van drinken, dat weet iedereen. En als ze drinken, dan doen ze het ook goed. Tot ze niet meer op hun benen kunnen staan, dat is de Deense filosofie.
Bij de uitgang van de kroeg blijkt dat wel weer. Een Deense student in korte broek staat [...]
Het lijkt wel teletubbieland. Het zonnetje schijnt, de lucht is blauw en iedereen is vrolijk. Eindelijk, de lente is in Denemarken aangebroken.
“Wacht maar tot het lente is!” Dat is misschien wel het zinnetje wat ik het meest heb gehoord afgelopen twee maanden, na Skøl dan. Elke Deen zal je vertellen dat het land verandert bij [...]
After three weeks traveling thru the Balkans I almost ran out of time. Albania was great: Shkodra is a cool city with no rules. Tirana has a great atmosphere, nice colored buildings and good nightlife. But it is time to go to Macedonia again. Today I will return to the city my trip started from: [...]
Cars, cars and more cars. There are a lot of cars in Tirana, the capital of Albania. The cars at Boulevard Zogu I are stuck in a long line, which leads them to the main square, Sheshi Skënderbej.
The square is huge. At the right side (with your back towards the statue) you find a nice [...]
The bus to Tirana leaves Shkodra around ten in the morning. Most of the seats are taken, but halfway there are two free places. I take the one next to the window, so I can enjoy the view during the ride. The bus is heavily used; the seat next to me doesn’t have a headrest, [...]
We walk around the city, but there are almost no people around. “Everybody is out of the city”, Saimir explains. It is summer holidays, so most people are at the coast. Some cars pass by, a few people still try to sell something in the shops, but most of them are closed. It’s three [...]
Last week has been hard to write. The internet cafe in Ohrid, Macedonia was too slow and too hot. Now I’m back in Utrecht again, after three weeks of intensive traveling. But as you might noticed, the blog is still in Shkodra. I will continue writing the adventures of the last week in Albania [...]
The car goes from left to right, slaloming between holes in the road. We are driving in the center of Shkodra, in north Albania. Keep on rolling, a song by Limp Bizkit is coming through the speakers of the gray Ford Sierra.
Dorian, a third year student, is driving. Next to him, on the passenger seat, [...]
The weblog is a few days behind. I write about places I was a few days ago. That’s why I will just shift some time and bring you to Albania, where I am at this moment.
After spending the second day in Mostar, we took at six in the evening a train to Sarajevo. A three [...]
“I found a nice lady”, Paolo yells at me at the other side of the door. I am surprised; he only went out for 2 hours in Mostar. I unlock the door, because I was having a nap, and see to my surprise Mathias. Not a nice dark haired Bosnian lady, but a tall German [...]
