In the Old Town

Built in XIII century by the Turks, completly destroyed in 1963's earthquick and rebuild after, now is a touristic and comercial zone. A nice walk into.

An airview of the city

Whit Ana ( Ljupco's daugther) & Mina ( a friend of her) in tour to a mountain nearby Skopje. Beautiful day

At last Skopje

After a long and hot journey I finally reached Skopje. My goal. My friend Ljupco was waiting for me. Installed me in an aire conditioned apartament with cable TV and all kind of luxury. Took a walk. In a quick glimpse, nice, wide and cared city. I will stay for a moth visitng and travelling around this hidden and interesting country.

Second Stop: Sofia. Bulgaria

Better. Cleaner. Quiter. At least nobody look at you as a next pray. So I decide to stay two days. Sigthseeing, promenades, markets, resting. The only problem: too many whores: in the street, in bars, in the hotel, but I manage to keep them away. I never pay for sex, I say, and they leave sad and sorrow. Hot but nice.

First stop: Bucarest

Finally reencarnation did not take so long (see http;//roundaboutindia.blogspot.com)and a few months later Joe P. is back to life and heading to Makedonia.
But it's difficult to reach Skopje from Madrid, so I took a cheap fligth in a fucking low cost airline which dropped in Bucarest. Tough city!! In the next half hour the airport bus driver and his "banda de chorizos" cheated me 15 euros and a bloody taxi driver another 15E, so I decided to escape fast!!!
