Pristina - Prishtine
View of the city on independence night!!!
Who am I?

- Welcome dear readers. I know the blogosphere is full of all sorts of interesting and juicy news and stories. Why one like me would decide to start a blog this late is beyond me also. This blog will be a story of my life in Kosovo. Kosovo??? Good question. It is currently this autonomous region in the Balkans administered by the United Nations through the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK). Please call me Luna. I am a woman in my late 20s. I am a pragmatic idealist sitting in a realist chair. I always hope and pray for the best of the world and its people but I am not naïve as to believe that my hopes and reality converge. So, that is my one of my purposes in life: I work outside defined boxes, make up some of my rules as I trot along, engage unusual and beautiful minded people along the way and try to make my hopes and reality merge.

I bet the store owner spent some time in London. Nevertheless, these little cafe places can look quite impressive for the small amount of money they put in them.
Lovely place, and I found a ton of cool CDs and DVDs... but isn't it strange that you can run a shop like this selling only pirated (stolen) ware in Europe? Strange too that lots of foreigners working for NGOs that are trying to set Kosovo straight shop there.
Where is Ginger?
Hello N & H
Pardon the delay in reply. Ginger is in Payton near the UNDP House and diagonal to the new French cafe.

PS: Anon, I do not know what you mean by setting Kosovo str8, I did not know it was crooked. In any case, I doubt piracy of classic movies and music is priority for Kosovo government now. touche ... those who claim to be better tend to be the worse most times ... next time you might find yourself saying that Pristina is so dirty with trash everywhere, ask yourself who usually drinks water from the plastic bottles that litter everywhere ;)
I was in Pristina for three days in April and was fortunate enough to be drawn to Ginger, where with the help of the owner, purchased 5 Kosovar CDs including Jericho, Por*no and a great compilation of Pristina bands. I felt immediately at home and would support this cool store over every other in Pristina.
