After several months anticipating this trip, I'm finally here! I'm here with 11 other colleagues (well, 10 - one was stuck in London and will be arriving today). We're here on a self-organised study group. Today we met with a law professor and discussed issues of human rights, then met with Kosovo's leading independent newspaper, then met with the Minister of Justice. All in all, a pretty eventful morning.
We arrived last night and after the taxi driver took us for a ride, literally and figuratively, we found the guesthouse we are staying in. In what is described as true Balkan style, we were all confused by the arrangements, which took just a little over two quite pleasant hours to figure out. At around 11:30pm, we were finally ready to go look for dinner, which we found an hour later.
The rest of the time here is spent meeting with different organisations and visiting different sites. After this time in Kosovo, I'll be visiting Macedonia for a day and Bulgaria for another three days. Then it's dissertation time after that.

'...to whistle in the dark isn't to pretend that the dark doesn't sometimes scare the living daylights out of us. Instead, I think, it's to demonstrate, if only to ourselves, that not even the dark can quite overcome our trust in the ultimate triumph of the Living Light' [Frederick Buechner].
