I like to start slowly, and then ease up as the day progresses.

Belgrade Triptych

At first we were confused. The East thought that we were West, while the West considered us to be East. Some of us misunderstood our place in the clash of currents, so they cried that we belong to neither side, and others that we belong exclusively to one side or the other. But I tell you, Ireneus, we are doomed by fate to be the East in the West and the West in the East, to acknowledge only heavenly Jerusalem beyond us, and here on earth—no one. 
St. Sava to Ireneus, 13th century

“This grand city seems to have always been like this: torn and split, as if it never exists but is perpetually being created, built upon and recovered. On one side it waxes and grows, on the other it wanes and deteriorates. Ever in motion and rustle, never calm and never knowing tranquility or quiet. The city upon two rivers, on the grand clearing, bound by the winds.”

Ivo Andrić, writer and Nobel Prize winner


This slightly disheveled air, combined with the city's vibrancy, fine restaurants, street cafes and northern European atmosphere, would make it an ideal place to spend a few days...

We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.


 It is better to travel well than to arrive.

No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
