a little place to call my own (art and fashion blog)

Hello dear readers! We'll start this photography and travel post with a quote.  'I' do not matter. No word matters. But man forgets reality and remembers words. The more words he remembers, the cleverer do his fellows esteem him. He looks upon the great transformations of the world, but he does not see them as they were seen when man looked upon reality for the first time. Their names come to his lips and he smiles as he tastes them, thinking he knows them in the naming. The thing that has never happened before is still happening. It is still a miracle.  Roger Zelazny, Lord of Light Zdravo dragi čitatelji! Započet ćemo ovu odjevnu objavu i putopis citatom.   "Ja", to nije bitno.  Nijedna riječ nije bitna. No, čovjek zaboravlja stvarnost i pamti riječi. Što više riječi zapamti, to ga pametnijim smatraju ljudi oko njega. On gleda velike pretvorbe svijeta, ali ne vidi ih onako kako ih je vidio čovjek koji je gledao stvarnost po prvi put. Njihova imena do...

There is little justice, if any, to be found on the face of the Earth. Injustice, however, is ever present. We witness it at every corner, we sense it with the very core of our being. Suffering is a norm not an exception. However, there is hope. I do believe that. Where there is love, there is hope....and love is a fact for me, as it is for anyone who has had it in its experience. There is no need for me to doubt that love is a reality to be experienced. There are people in this world who deserve our love and our admiration...and if nothing else, that's a good reason to live. It is good enough for me. It is reason enough to smile. In spite of everything. In spite of myself. Sometimes smile comes on its own and sometimes we must invite it. In this latter case, a smile is a decision. In our human language, perhaps it is best expressed with this sentence: 'I hope'. Malo je pravde, ako je uopće ima, na ovome svijetu. Nepravde pak ima posvuda. Vidimo je iza svakog ugla i os...

Is Marjan  hill worth the hike? It sure it. Moreover, if you ask me it is also worth the hype. In a recent post (read it here ), I provided you with a google map link and explained to you how to get to the point where you can enjoy the best view of the city  (and while you are at it, why not discover an old church that is located only 200 meters from it?) Today I will do something even better. I will show you how to get there. Our starting point is the city centre i.e. the famous promenade known locally as 'riva'. From there we will climb to vidilica ( that is the first resting point with  the best view of Split city IMO) and then to the old church I told you about. Finally, we will  climb down to sea level. Shall we take a walk together? Je li Marjan vrijedan malo penjanja? Svakako, a ako mene pitate s razlogom je i  na tako dobru glasu. U nedavnoj objavi (pročitajte je ovdje ), dala sam vam poveznicu na google kartu i objasnila kako doći do najboljeg pogl...
