My First Evening in Macedonia

I am now in Macedonia since about two hours. A driver named Iurie picked me up from the airport and gave me a quick guide tour, country brief and taught me a few words in Macedonian on the way into central Skopje. The landscape outside the city is beautiful with breathtaking mountains in all directions. As it was already getting dark, I just dropped my bag at my hotel room and went for a walk around the city centre. At first glance, Skpoje seems to be nice and quite calm, but I really just saw a few blocks and the old stone bridge (which I am staying right next to). I am now enjoying my enormous room, or suite rather, watching BBC World and preparing a bit for tomorrow.
