I know that you're already in Mace...Katherine,<br /><br />I know that you're already in Macedonia, but I wanted to tell you that I've always found bus trips to be an awesome way to see real life. Whenever I travel, people want to whisk me away by cab or other transport to the shiny center of city, where tourist traps attempt to separate me from my money. (They all tend to look the same form city to city anyhow.)<br /><br />But buses--good old gigantic, uncomfortable, lumbering buses--can't shield its riders from the real areas where the locals live and shop. And if you really want to learn about an area and its people, this is where you look.<br /><br />I hope the bus trip was an education in itself, and was a vehicle (literal and figurative) leading to greater experiences!<br /><br />JamesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
