as you know I am a traveler. A manic cruiser in fact. I prefer places somehow troubled... because they remind me of myself perhaps... or because they are real... it seems. I mean, Switzerland is a friggin' dollhouse and I would probably go crazy if I lived there and started acting super-disorderly.

in the past i spend few sleepless nights in places of history. Russia triggered my cycles badly (but tbh, I was always drinking heavily in Russia... but you cannot really be in Russia and interact with locals unless you do drink).

At the moment I am in Pristina. That place is intense. It threw me out of loop a bit... I spend good part of the evening sitting on window pane, staring at the city and crying (and I spend the night trying to figure out the GHOST in my hostel room. He was not harmful, but I have respect of supernatural). Went to Prizren today... which seems more alive and is more pretty... but i still could not shake off that feeling that this is not a place to be tourist in. A humanitarian worker? Nation-builder? Yes... but to come and stare... feels impolite somehow.

Did you ever encounter a place that triggered you with its energies or atmosphere?
