@culturaltutor This beauty is the bridge on the river Drina, in Višegrad, Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was built from 1571 to 1577 and a Nobel prize winning author Ivo Andrić wrote about it in his masterpiece by the same name, The Bridge on the Drina/ Na Drini ćuprija.

@karenkho This makes me think of all the times people asked me if I’m sick/pregnant/secretly Muslim because I don’t drink...or being told it’s not fun unless we all drink (why??). Why do people question someone’s entire existence and value system because we ordered a virgin mojito? 🙄

مصعد - elevator
enmarañado - entangled
remusé - overwhelmed
