I've been to paradise and I've been to me.

And I've been to confusion, but that's not unusual. :)

[jawnbc]

Are you sure?

[paterson-si.livejournal.com]

You think it's not unusual? ;)

[bluebear2.livejournal.com]

I've never understood what that meant.

so you moved like harlow in monte carlo?

[arktos62.livejournal.com]

And your world map tells me you've been to plenty more places, too. Looking forward to hearing about your adventures in the Balkans.

I've been to Parnell Square, but I've never been to Meath.

Have you been undressed by kings and seen some things that a women ain't supposed to see?

That lyric was a memorable mondegreen for me. I first heard it on AM radio in Boston in the early '80's as "I've been to paradise but I've never been to Maine." I thought it was a really cheesy tourism promo of some sort.

More like Pickford in Wexford.

Oh I hope I get to go. The conference organizers, being Greek, still haven't responded to my submission.

WIN

[jawnbc]

Well, kweens...

[jawnbc]

ha!

Xtian musings on looking outside one's self for pleasure, but finding the experience unfulfilling. I thinking paradise is a metaphor for lots o' cock.

Oh, SO very Balkan. Like here in Bulgaria. :)

[jawnbc]

Careful...nothing pisses off Greeks like being called Balkans. ;)

My best mate in Australia's parents are from Greek. Every year at the Eurovision "we're gonna win." OK they did once. And in the run up to the 2004 Summer Olympics he was all "we did a great job, didn't we?" And I was all "well, if we forget the building never built, the building half built--yes, good job!"

Is it like that in Bulgaria? Slovenia's gonna be a shock for you: it's like the best of slavic, germanic, and adriatic cultures. Passionate, organized, flavourful. When are you going?

I've been undressed by kweens, and I've seen some scenes that involved somebody's pee....

[tilia-tomentosa.livejournal.com]

Most of us Bulgarians are the ever-complaining kind. :)
I hate to say it, but it's a very bad combination of Balkan and post-Soviet here. It won't be easy to overcome...

I'm leaving on 14th September, arriving in Ljubljana on 15th at 5 AM their time (poor paterson_si, he has to meet me so early), and then leaving on 14th in the evening. A 15-hour journey from my capital Sofia to Ljubljana by bus... and I must get to Sofia first. I'm just crazy! :)

I hope to meet mitjablazic and vksi too on 14th before I leave... those Slovenians just don't stop in one place!

[jawnbc]

How are you leaving Ljubljana before you arrive (the 14th)?

;)

[tilia-tomentosa.livejournal.com]

OMG it shows that I'm half asleep, LOL.

So I arrive on the 11th, and leave on the 14th.
