Tuesday
I have been working my butt off getting the last of the packing done, I must say it is not a lot of fun, because it's hard to decide what must be left behind. Some things there's no choice about it, because luggage forwarding services can't transport for example, toiletries, I'm not sure about spices or essential oils either. So some things I will be deprived of, I hope the Indian restaurant is good, because I'll feel deprived without sometimes having a curry! :)
I also resent not being able to bring things that were perfectly FINE before. It's really very annoying. I'm not someone who makes trouble, I just want to go on my travels and be comfortable. Not a lot to ask, but I guess I'm wrong there. Yeah yeah yeah, the terrorists. So how does depriving me of things help get rid of them?
I painted something very distinctive on all my suitcases, part of my family's coat of arms, I hope that helps keep them from being lost, it's sort of a Medieval solution to a modern difficulty.
On the up-side, I think I've secured a place in Sarajevo. I need to send them a security deposit, it's more than I want to pay, but it's a fully furnished place, and I can take advantage of it to look for a place that's lots cheaper. It has internet access as part of the fee, and all uitilities excepting fixed line phone are covered so it's good.

Regardless of my opinions about Milosevic, I feel for the people on the ground who suffered under the bombing, and I respect the people who kept on with their lives.
