If u had been in Lozani 10 years ago, you would have been singing a different tune. Unfortunately most, if not all of the mladi have moved to Struga (in the actual city). But the girls in Vranishta are better than Lozani.

Epa ti od kade si Lozani ili Vranista?

Od Bidjevo sum

Yeah Vransiata was a great selo, my mate from Australias mum is from there, while we were in Macedonia we spent a week there. it's a massive selo, as we arrived we asked so people if they new my mate or his family, they didn't. Just shows how large a selo it is.

From what I could see the people seem a lot better off than the people from Bitola, don't know why, but I assume it's the flow on effect of tourism.

Yeah we were at Elegro every night, was a great place, if every selo was a bit like Vransta, Macedonia would be an even better place than it already is.

If only Egri was like that..

It's not that they are well off, but that they are self sufficient. Everything they need in that village is within arms length, and the villagers are so diversified in trades and talents, that no chore is left undone.

What was your friends moms last name?

Don't know his mum's surname, but his grand parents have a house in the old part of the selo, near the one of the Churches and near that old large abandoned store.

I found people were more positive in Struga than in Bitola, everyone is negative in Bitola about their future.

Thats Sred Selo, I probably know the family.

Kako Struga nema druga!
