KOSOVO

Country Overview:

“Expectedly small, unexpectedly interesting”

I had a really good time in Pristina, despite a 7pm lockdown being imposed during my last weekend there. The people are really nice, and they use the euro, which makes things easy. There were some cool sites in the city, and despite the “war torn” idea that many might have of Kosovo, Pristina didn’t have any of that. Plus, there’s a statue of Bill Clinton, what’s not to love?

Cathedral

The Cathedral of Saint Mother Teresa in Pristina is a Roman Catholic cathedral. In 2007, the Government of Kosovo approved plans for the building and it is dedicated to the Albanian-Indian Roman Catholic nun and missionary, Saint Teresa of Calcutta.

Fun Fact: The cathedral is one of Pristina's tallest buildings.

Other pictures are the stadium by my AirBnb at night, a picture of the streets at 8pm on the first day of 7pm curfew, the building where my gym is, and a cute fruit store.
