Mostar
The Nice Thing About Strangers
I’m going through notebooks from my first trip to Bosnia-Hercegovina so I can use some of it in a novel I’m trying to finish. There’s something very humbling about re-reading my detailed record of every mistake and worry from that trip. It shows me how much has changed and how much I have stayed the same. Nonetheless, I have learned a lot about myself by going abroad alone. I hope I can turn it into something for my main character, since I’m sending her there as well. I hate to use anything I may need for the story, but I thought I’d send some photos from Mostar that send me back to those warm, curious, self-conscious days.
Thanks for being so patient with the blog as I finish up with editing the novel. Here’s hoping I’ll be able to share with you this «thank you note as thinly-veiled fiction» soon.

Non Perfect. El blog imperfecto.
Lo sé. Estamos conectados con nuestro teléfono.

Lo sé, lo sé, pero… hasta que no me he detenido a observar, no he sido consciente…

Lo sabemos.
La que nos conecta con el exterior.
La que nos desconecta del entorno.
