There are events in our calendar that will repeat themselves with unfailing regularity year after year, though no two of them will ever feel the same. Silvester, which is what 31st December is named in the Slovak calendar, is no exception. No matter how many Silvesters I’ve lived through, the end of year never ceases to surprise me with new finds.
Although it hasn’t been the best year on the international level, the 2016 has brought a lot of positive things for my family and friends. We haven’t lost anyone, yet we welcomed a few new-borns. My eldest daughter got engaged, the younger one successfully weathered an exceptionally difficult time in her professional life, our son finally found his true vocation.
On a personal level, it’s been a very productive year. At long last, I managed to gather enough resources to publish A Taste of Slovakia – my first book, which started selling at a few bookshops around Slovakia and a couple of other venues.
I have also shipped a few copies outside Slovakia and some buyers took the book as far as the USA.
All through the year and especially during the book completion I was fortunate enough to meet passionate and supportive people, many of whom have become friends.
