Culture goes underground


Another victory for the Culture team.
The down town Ljubljana is nice, but rather similar to other Eastern European major cities. Nice terraces with a river in the middle, Italian tourists with big sunglasses and little Korean people in front of every statue, others taking their pictures with their Nikons.

Something completely different can be found if asking the right people. Close to our hostel, there is an artist-driven cultural village of one or two blocks, all covered in all forms of art and artists and hangarounds.
Yesterday we found ourselves there in a gig of a punk-reggae band. The inner yard was filled with sweet herbal aromas and people were generally less big-sunglassed and much less cool than the downtownians. And a whole lot happier.
These are the things Culture team lives for.

Thank you for these encouraging photos and words, brother Baba; there is still places for little, furry, creative creatores to go, when the sunglasses arent enought anymore here in this radient future of ours. Take a good care of yourself and the team and look out of little furry things running across the street; they might be related to you... by: Twinny Binny Potato
