Srebrenica

Every year the same questions arise. Questions of which we will never get an answer of. Questions like – how much is a life worth?
How could Europe watch these young men and children die?
How could a human being be so evil to kill innocent people only because they had the “wrong names”?
How can these watch themselves in the mirror? What do they say to their children ? Are they proud of having killed “the enemy”? Even if the enemy was a 13-year old boy? Are their children questioning them as the germans did with their parents?
My million dollar question is -how could you trust a Chetnik would not do anything to you?Why give yourself up to them?
How could you give up the only safe thing that kept you alive- your weapon…(even if the president asks for it)? Be it give it to UN soldier or any other soldier? What was in your mind when you did this fatal mistake?
I hope for your sake that I am wrong and that there is a God that will punish every single one of these criminals having destroyed so many lives while they themselves go on with their life making their own families, getting children and watch their children and grandchildren grow up. All the precious things that they stole from over 8000 boys and men. To avoid this to happen again I believe only in this old latin saying “If you want peace, prepare for war“.

Svake godine ista pitanja postavljam. Pitanja na kojima nikad neću dobiti odgovor. Pitanja poput- koliko je jedan život vrijedan?
Kako je mogla Evropa gledati ubijanje mladih dječaka i muškaraca.
Kako može jedno ljudsko biće biti.toliko prokleto da ubija nevine ljude, samo zato što su imali “pogrešna imena”? Kako se mogu gledati u ogledalo? Šta kažu svojoj djeci? Jesu li ponosni što su ubili “neprijatelje”? Iako je neprijatelj bio dječak od 13 godina? Postavljaju li djeca zločinaca pitanja svojim roditeljima šta , kako i zašto? (Kako su radili njemci sa svojim roditeljima)
Moje najbitnije pitanje je kako su mogli vjerovati četnicima da im ništa neće uraditi i predati se njima? Kako su mogli predati jedinu stvar koja ih sigurno drži u život-pušku, ko god da je to naredio bio predsjednik ili ne. Bilo to dati unproforcu ili nekom drugom vojniku. Šta vam je bilo u mislima kad ste tu kobnu grešku uradili?
Za vašu dušu se nadam da sam u krivu i da bog postoji, da svi ovi dušmani koji su nanijeli toliku bol i koji su uništili toliko familija kojima su oduzeli životna pozitivna iskustva poput dobivanje djece i gledanje svojih unuka kako rastu.  Sve ono su vam uzeli dok oni te normalne i vrijedne stvari sami doživljavaju i uživaju.
Da se izbjegne ponovo ovakva fatalna greška ima jedna stara latinska izreka koja nije loša za zapamtiti: Ako hoćes mir, spremaj se za rat!

Aquaria water museum / Aquaria muzej vode

~ au ~ Leave a comment

The moment I heard of Aquaria water museum I wanted to visit the it and finally it happened.
There is this special frog exhibition and I thought that the kids would love it so  we went there.  Even though the museum is quite small I found it wonderful. Especially, the fabulous terrace for taking a Swedish “fika”. It is definitely something I will do again and I recommend it for families.

U tom momentu kad sam čula za Aquaria vodeni muzej ja sam htjela da ga vidim i napokon se i to desi.
Ima specijalna izložba “fantastičnih žaba” i mislia sam da će se to djeci svidjeti i tako smo i otišli.
Iako je muzej prilično mali meni se jako svidio pogotovo što imaju kafić na terasi sa prelijepim pogledom. Ovo je mjesto koje ću ponovo doći i posjetiti.

Mamama

~ au ~ Leave a comment

Today was a big day for me. Adrian said mamamama for the first time. I don’t think he understood it, but I got happy anyway 🙂
Danas je bio svećan dan meni. Adrian je rekao mamamam po prvi put. Ne vjerujem da je shvatio šta je rekao ali me ipak obradovao 🙂

Barbecue in Haga park / Roštiljada u Hagaparku

~ au ~ Leave a comment

Today, we were enjoying a beautiful day in the beautiful Haga park. We organised a spontaneous barbecue with the kids and after a couple of beginner-black sausages the rest of the sausages turned fine.
I really love these days when my daughter can play with her cousin. It reminds me of my childhood 🙂

Danas smo uživali u jednom prekrasnom danu u lijepom Haga parku. Organizovali smo spontani roštilj sa djecom i poslije par početni prepečenih hrenovki se smirilo stanje i super nam je bilo. Volim vidjeti Adu kako se veselo igra sa svojim tetičnim, podsjeća me na moje djetinjstvo 🙂

Baltazar

~ au ~ Leave a comment

The kids loved it last year and they love it this year. Fabulous place for children where they can play for hours. THE famous Baltazar in Skövde. It costs only 100 kr for the whole summer so it is really a great investment where children can learn new things having fun in the same time. I was told next year Baltazar will even be bigger with more things to explore. I can hardly wait for it!

Djeca su ga prošle godine obožavala a i ove godine su bili oduševljeni. Baltazar je predobro mjesto gdje se mogu igrati satima. Košta samo 100kr za čitavo ljeto i može se reći da je investicija u djecu da se čitavo ljeto uče nove stvari dok se igraju. Rečeno mi je da će se slijedeće godine Baltazar proširiti za čitav sprat tako da će biti još zanimljivije. Jedva čekam da i to vidim!

Aqua vitalis

~ au ~ Leave a comment

For a long time I haven´t been able to spend some time for myself and just relax, so yesterday my mom told me and my sister to go to Aqua Vitalis for a couple of hours to relax. We where fast to get away and get some time alone. To bad I cannot do it more often. Već dugo vremena nisam imala vremena za sebe i da se samo opustim, i tako mama reće meni i mami da odemo par sati do Aqua Vitalis da se odmorimo i družimo. Bile smo brze pobjeći iz kuće da se ne predomisli 😛 Šteta samo što ne možemo ovo češće raditi.

Adrians first visit in a museum / Adrianova prva posjeta u jednom muzeju

~ au ~ Leave a comment

It might be a little difficult to beat Adas first visit in a museum which was Hagia Sophia (old post) in Istanbul, but Adrian was not to bad either. He had the opportunity to come to the Swedish Museum of National History which is the major museum of natural history in Sweden. Adrian was brave and silent looking interested at everything. Especially the face of Eva draught his attention.
I do have to admit it is fascinating to look at her face and imagine for a second the whole human history 🙂

Iako je možda malo teško nadmašiti Adinu posjetu u prvom muzeju Aju Sofiju (old post) u Istanbulu, Adrian nije isto ništa gori. Imao je mogućnost da posjeti najveći muzej prirodnih nauka u Švedskoj. Bio je fin i miran i sve je zainteresovano gledao. Međutim posebno mu je privukla Ava pažnju.
Moram priznati da je i meni bilo interesantno njezino lice gledati i malo maštati o  čitavoj ljudskoj istoriji 🙂

Girl cruise on a Sunday / Krstarenje sa djevojkama jedne nedjelje

~ au ~ Leave a comment

Today morning I woke up at 5h!
At 7.10h me, my sister and over 300 women checked in on Silja Line for a cruise to Aland. The cruise was organised by “Aktiespararna”, and contained great talks about stocks.
We met the CEO Therese Lundstedt for the Aktieinvest telling us about the possibility to buy shares of a stock instead of a whole stock (great when very expensive stocks), as well as Sandra Lindqvist that has made the “Framtidsfeminist fund” a fund only investing in companies that promote equality among the upper management. Very clever and nice idea.
A fascinating story was also told by Andra Farad whose alias Börshajen has made a fascinating travel from a suburb of Stockholm to run her own business educating people about stocks.
It was very motivating and gave me a chance to talk with women with the same interest and discuss strategies, mistakes and victories.

Jutros sam se u 5h probudila!
U 7.10h smo sestra, ja i još preko 300 žena uradile check-in na Silja Line trajektu za krstarenje do Alanda. Krstarenje je organizovano od Aktiespararna i sastojalo se od predavanja o dionicama.
Sreli smo izmeđuostalih CEO od Aktieinvest Therese Lundstedt- koja nam je pričala o mogućnost kupovine djelove dionice (super, ako su jako skupe dionice), Sandru Lindqvist koja je napravila Framtidsfeminist fond ( Budućnostfeminist fond), gdje investira novac samo u firme gdje ravnopravnost vlada u višem menadžmentu.  Jako pametna i fina ideja.
Interesantnu životnu priču je Andra Farad -Börshajen ispričala o svom životnom putu iz predgrađa Štokholma do osnivanje svoje firme koja se bavi edukacijom o dionicama.
Bilo je jako motivirajući ići na ovo krstarenje i dalo mi je šansu da pričam i sretnem žene koje su isto tako zainteresovane u dionicama kao što sam i ja. 

Adrians first trip to Sweden /Adrianovo prvo putovanje za Švedsku

~ au ~ Leave a comment

Today was Adrians first flight ever and typically it took ages. I actually think I’ve never travelled so long to get to Sweden. We left Karlsruhe around 12h and arrived around 19.30h . They where awake the whole journey. At home the kids where so excited so they fell asleep around 22h. Me on the other hand I am to tired to sleep and I am thinking of a lot of things. Funny thing in the end was that the last stairs where colorful:)

Danas je bio Adrianov prvi let, naravno se izdužio. Mislim da nikad nisam toliko dugo putovala za Švedsku. Krenuli smo iz Karlsruhe oko 12h i stigli oko 19.30h. Djeca su bila budna skoro čitav put. Kad smo stigli tako su bili uzbuđeni da nisu mogli spavati i tek oko 22h su zaspali. Ja u drugu ruku sam bila tako umorna da nisam od umora mogla zaspati i mnogo sam razmišljala. Bilo mi je baš simpatično vidjeti ove stepenice  kad sam trebala izaći iz metra.
