Klobasa Shop in Ljubljana, Slovenia |
I have been back home in California for a month. And I am still unpacking.
The suitcases are emptied but I am still sorting out photos, memories, and impressions from the trip. It was magical in ways I had not imagined. From Venice to Slovenia to Kosovo. Visits to ancestral villagea. A day trip to the mountains of northern Albania. At the end, celebrating the welcome news of a family engagement. Dizzying and a little disorienting.
For a week after our return, I woke up each morning and thought I was in Albania. The end of the trip must have made an impression, since the first new recipes I attempted were Albanian.
We never had a bad meal. Hotel breakfasts, airport cafeterias, farmers markets, street vendors, and destination restaurants. Always good. Sometimes memorable. But not the most important part, although I will be writing more about food. As soon as I finish unpacking.

hello, great that you were in Slovenia. Which places did you visit?
ReplyDeleteIt was wonderful! In Slovenia, we stayed in Piran for 4 nights and then in Ljubljana for a week. Visited many smaller villages and settlements in Dolenjska, where my ancestors lived. Will have to write more about i.
DeleteGreat, looking forward to reading it :)
