It is very interesting to get response from the people who I'm actually writing about. And I'm glad that most people have responded in a very positive way. After all I have really loved my trips to the region; so I would hate to write something that would hurt feelings.
People who read these pages should keep in mind that the descriptions are
based on the experiences by a normal 'amateur' traveller. I have tried to
stick to writing about things that I have seen and heard with my own eyes
and ears. During my touring around the countries I have probably missed a
lot of the finer details and social/cultural perspectives. This may result
in pages which seem incomplete or partially wrong to the people who live in
the countries. I risk getting the same feeling if I read a travelogue about
a trip to Denmark; actually that would be interesting - I will have to try
that some day .
Some people have pointed out that I have Western way of seeing things. I'm sorry, but I can't help this. I can only try to expand my views by travelling... - and by getting response from people who read this.
Thanks to the people who have responded. Keep the comments coming!
