The youth
of Mostar after war was probably thinking only on
freedom. Some of them were in love, some of them
were interested in short adventures, shortly said
ONE NIGHT STAND. But unfortunatly the one who are
in love or other kind couldn't have found a place
for expressing tenderness passion and a place for
exchanging experience.
Young people full of
fantasy did these "acts" in, to us well
known places, Tito's villa, the house of our
ex-president, who had us all on the chian of
communism. Today this house is demolished, but
could be reconstructed. This villa is adorable by
moonlight and night. Seeing that view I realized
that me and all others were enchanted by our
river Neretva. Half demolished balcanies give the
most beatiful view on river Neretva hills that
surround town Mostar. Yes, it is possible to
choose a room (of course demolished) Although I
have conclude that young people who just become a
pair visits first the hotel "ROSE" ,
concrete this is rest of that hotel.
But today they were chased out of
"Rose" by young couples and theirs
whispiring. The thirth possibility, where you can
"make certain love", with someone you
care about, or just exchange kisses is the
ex-north camp. There, where once the most
important people in the ex-Jugoslavia Army, now
are sitting couples in love or a group of young
people.
This army camp is now used in chanty. We
can it everything in the name of love. The fourth
solution is "The Hill of Love",
altgough it's local name is Fortiza. As you can
assume the lover's who go there, have better
conditions, that means a car. Lovers who heitner
have options nor prospect for anything, try to
use as much as it's possible The Rose or Tito's
Villa.
The Hill of Love
is also visited by the youth who just want to
have a party in the darkness of forest. Of course
the olders ones, such as our and yours parents,
aren't satisfied with our love nests for
exchanging love, but they conciousness that we
don't have any possibility to choose, that we are
limited with just a few good places to go out and
with these demolished building objects.
We have
only mentioned the advantages of these building
objects, but what about the disadventages? Well,
their disadventage is that you don't have any privacy although. The youth is forced to be and
to experience the first sparks of love in these
demolished but romantic places. The future seems
will be pathetic but love including other things
keeps us in the good in this monotonous city
Mostar.
