Damn. Well, I'm here in the US until late August when we're scheduled to at long last take a break in Serbia. Just got an email from one of the composer-organizers behind the Summer in Sombor seminar. (Here's their brochure.) She says she'll be hanging out at our favorite place by the canal, Cafe Del Sol, if I'd like to stop by. Boy would I.
This time of year in the career rat-race in the US is when I miss the laid back summer life in Sombor the most. And I am disgustingly proud of the fact that these wonderful composers chose Sombor, of all places in the world, to have their annual seminar at year after year.
While other people in the office have PC screensavers of tropical beaches, my vacation dreams are of Sombor. Call me crazy, but I know where I like to go to relax and have a good time... and it's green and leafy!

Strange little town that Sombor , isn't it ? Hidden in the appendix of the Central Europe yet feels almost cosmopolitan . Primitive in some ways yet very artistic and educated .It grows on you like a pair of well broken in , comfortable shoes .
You guessed it by now , it is my hometown , I was blessed to grow up there and I am glad that people from different backgrounds and cultures could enjoy visiting there as much as I do.
Going there at the same time you do , might see you at Del Sol or maybe the Farmer's Market buying those tasty tomatoes

It is nice if you come to visit and enjoy the culture. If you live here and try to find a job it is a living hell.
