UMAG - THE WESTERNMOST TOWN IN CROATIA (PART 2)

Image
 My last post about the westernmost Croatian town Umag was short and sweet. Likewise, my second post about Umag will be on the short side. In my last post, I didn't write the real reason why I was in Umag. You see, I wasn't really visiting it as a tourist. I actually relocated to Umag town back in May for work reasons. At the moment I'm working full time in the tourism sector so with the high seasons and everything I'm quite busy. The working days in the summer (during the high season) are usually quite long. They start early in the morning and end up late at night (with breaks) so I haven't had much time for blogging and posting. I promise to make it up to you in the future.  At the start of this month, I relocated again (for work). My company has sent me to a new location in Croatia. Before I reveal where I am at the moment, I'll like to share with you another post about Umag city. Moreover, I will leave link to more posts about Croatia that you might find us...

PRIJAN LOVRO, A NOVEL BY AUGUST ŠENOA (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENATION)

Image
Hello! How are doing? Today I'm back with another reading recommendation. Published in 1973, Prijan Lovro is a novella that tells the life story of a young Slovene student, supposedly a friend of the writer. In many ways, it's a typical work of romanticism. I had fun teaching it last December. That is when I reread it. Who knows, I might reread it again some time. It's always nice to hear the students' opinion of a certain book. I don't get a chance to teach literature again, but it's not a problem, I enjoy teaching other subjects as well. So, that's my book recommendation of the day.  Zdravo! Kako ste? Danas se vraćam s još jednom preporukom za čitanje. Prijan Lovro, objavljena 1973. godine., je novela koja govori o životnoj priči mladog slovenskog studenta, navodno prijatelja književnika. Na mnogo načina, to je tipično djelo romantizma. Bilo mi je lijepo iskustvo podučavati ovu novelu prošlog prosinca. Tada sam ju ponovno pročitala.  Tko zna, možda ću je...
