I started this blog when I first went on an exchange to Brisbane, Australia. During that experience, I discovered my love for culture, travelling and adventures. This blog has followed me since and been my forum for pictures and stories from Tanzania, South Africa, Ireland, Fiji, Malaysia, Singapore, Europe etc.

Mountain life

Publicerad 2014-09-25 10:01:26 i Allmänt,


Galicknic, a super small village which only comes to live during the summer was a great surprise of beautiful mountains and beautiful people. There is absolutely nothing to do here, other than taking in and admire the views. The village is located on a dead end road and there is only two ways to get here, either by driving from mavrovo, or by driving to another village, jance and then hike through the mountains. 
As it is the end of the season, there are only a few people left here, and they all treat us like their kids. It's been amazing in every way. Yesterday we went on a little ride through the mountains with a guy who in his efforts to make the village alive has organized horseback riding for the few tourists who find this place. It was amazing to canter on the narrow mountain roads with views like this. 

We also hiked to to top of the mountain, 2200m above sea level where the view was just unbelievable 

Afterwards, we got invited for coffee to the lady who showed us the way to the mountain
She fed us with vitamin drinks, Macedonian whiskey, Turkish coffee, cheese, chocolate, etc. she lived in Gothenburg for 9 years and was super happy to practice her Swedish. And believe it or not this lady is 65yo (she looks like 45) and told us most people in this village live until they are 100. Such beautiful souls. 
Now it's time for us to keep driving south. I'm guessing there is more to explore here :)
