Ohrid
Wow. WOW.
Ohrid was my grandma's favorite city in the Balkans. I have to say, the woman had good taste. It is truly the best. About 30 seconds after arriving I started thinking about ditching Belgrade and teaching here instead. Ohrid has quite a lot going for it:
1. They speak Macedonian here, so I wouldn't have to learn all those %#$^ing cases
2. It is an amazingly beautiful, historically fascinating, clean city with excellent swimming in the summer (in the lake) and skiing in the winter in the nearby mountains.
More on this later; time for bed.

There used to be the very best opincar in Ohrid named Milan Belev. You would outline a footprint and he would fashion the most wonderful Macedonian opanke that would fit like gloves. If they are still making those dance shoes, I recommend you get a pair. Truly the most comfortable shoe I ever bought. PK
Darn. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm already in Bitola.
