VISIT THE WONDERFUL STON (CROATIA) AND LEARN ABOUT ITS RICH HISTORY!

Image
 Hello dear readers! If you would like to visit a fascinating historical settlement, you've come to the right place. Today I'm taking you to Ston, Croatia! We visited Ston town back in March 2023. As was the case with our last visit to Ston six years ago, this too was an unplanned  visit, a spur of the moment thing. My aunt and uncle were there for a Seafood festival, so we drove to Ston to meet them. We enjoyed a nice walk and grabbed a cup of coffee with them. We didn't have the time to linger or to join the food festival. My working hours are insane this year and the work never seems to end. At the same time, the prices of living are skyrocketing, so despite being exhausted, I'm always looking for additional work. So, as you can imagine I was very grateful for this short trip and a little break.  The weather was simply perfect, sunny and warm. I do love that about the Mediterranean climate- you can count on it to deliver those perfect sunny days as early as March! On

  Hello, dear readers! Today I have some dystopian reading recommendations for you. We seem to already live in dystopia so why not contemplate  this particular   literary  genre? The location for the photographs is University Campus in Mostar. An appropriate location for sure! This is the place where I took a course in Dystopian Literature many years ago.

Furthermore, I found more dystopian novels to love.  Just in case anyone is interested this is the list of novels I read for that dystopian class more than a decade ago:   We , 1984, The Handmaid's Tale,  Fahrenheit 451 , The Brave New World, A Clockwork Orange  and   Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?  A great list for sure!  Today I'll add more books to that list to present you with a list of 10 classical dystopian novels to read.
