A visit to Salzburg, Mozart's hometown When you come to Salzburg, it becomes clear to you where the inspiration for Mozart's beautiful musical pieces came from. But I heard that's not the case and that Mozart never said or wrote that the beauty of his hometown inspired him. Although my impression was that in such a beautiful city you have to become inspired to make great works of art. The spirit of old times and Mozart's work can be felt at every step, because the city is…

When you come to Salzburg, it becomes clear to you where the inspiration for Mozart's beautiful musical pieces came from. But I heard that's not the case and that Mozart never said or wrote that the beauty of his hometown inspired him. Although my impression was that in such a beautiful city you have to become inspired to make great works of art. Mozart was born on the third floor of a building that was a few hundred years old at the time. He later lived in another house…
I came across an interesting place in Salzburg where you can become a part of history with unique photography from the past. You will be amazed to see yourself in some old costume and you will feel like you belong to another time.
When it comes to traveling in Europe, I think that Venice is a must-see destination. I was in Venice twice. When I was there for the first time, it was raining a lot, and that affected the impression, which was much better the second time. I completely agree with the saying that Venice is a perfect living museum. Wherever you turn around, you will see amazing views of the water, bridges, and fascinating architecture.

Thanks... But no, thanks! Are you familiar with the saying, **"thanks, but no, thanks"**? Have you ever found yourself in a situation where someone offers you help or favor and you do not want to accept it? It happens to me very often. Inner feeling or intuition does not allow me to accept everything that is offered to me because sometimes even seemingly good intentions do not have to be good by default. It's not easy to say no. And the hardest thing is to say "no" to people…

Topcider has always been the greenest park in my town. Back in the 19th century, Prince Milos Obrenovic ordered that no vehicles of that time should enter this park and trample meadows. The park has always been protected. What fascinates me the most in this park are the very tall trees and three small lakes.
Rainy day in Sopron When I arrived in Sopron, a place I had never heard of before, it was raining. I watched the raindrops on the car window glass and wondered if the rain would allow me to get to know this town. Sometimes we do not determine the exact path we will take and go somewhere where the feeling leads us, by accident. And here lies the greatest beauty of travel. I got out of the way, not knowing what awaits me there. One of the feelings that make me happiest is the…

Screaming performance in my city Today was an unusual day in my city. I still feel a sore throat but it doesn't matter because I also feel incredible relief. The women of my city were invited by an artist to gather today to scream out loud and free themselves from chronic stress and burnout as a disease of modern society. The screaming performance was organized at three locations in the city. All women had the opportunity to participate. When I heard about this event, I knew…
Carrots have always been present in my life. If they are not in the pot, then they are in the salad or maybe in some dessert or in my hand. 🙂 I sometimes eat it raw. I eat it in soup very often. And my family is happiest when I make a dessert out of it. My kids love sandwich cookies, so let's make them! Here is the recipe. https://ecency.com/hive-124452/@jelenaa/sweet-carrots-in-stinging-nettles-loh-contest-81

The screaming performance was organized at three locations in the city. All women had the opportunity to participate. When I heard about this event, I knew that I would participate for sure, because I need to scream without hesitation and worry about whether someone will consider me hysterical. 🙂 Burnout is…
Are you an egg, a carrot, or a coffee? I recently heard an interesting story that left an impression on me. I later discovered that it was a well-known story I had never heard before. The story is still in my mind. Moreover, I need to share it with others. That is why I will share it with you today, although you may already know it. It is a story about a girl who experienced great disappointment in her life. We all have them, don't we? That's the way it is. We become…
There are a lot of nettles in my environment that no one has planted. They don't need to be planted by us, because they are good at planting themselves. And the soup, made from carrots and nettles, is simply perfect. When we pick nettles, we should do it carefully because of the stinging. For this soup, we need carrots, onions, nettles, celery, and potatoes. It is very healthy and delicious!
My third BCH - earning, saving, spending Since I started writing on the read.cash platform, I have been very happy because I finally got free space to express my emotions and thoughts. That was and is a reason enough for me to stay here as long as possible. Writing and communicating with wonderful people around the world has been my main motivational factor, as a refuge in which I am sheltered for a while from exploitative jobs that offer small monetary compensations in…
I recently heard an interesting story that left an impression on me. It is a story about a girl who experienced great disappointment. She asked her grandmother for advice. She didn't answer her but took her to the kitchen. She took three pots and filled them with water and put each on the stove. The water boiled quickly. She put a carrot in the first pot, egg in the second, and ground coffee beans in the third. All three foods encountered the same problem - hot water. And…
Sweet carrots in stinging nettles and sandwiches Carrots have always been present in my life. If they are not in the pot, then they are in the salad or maybe in some dessert or in my hand. 🙂 I sometimes eat it raw. I eat it in soup very often. And my family is happiest when I make a dessert out of it. We all know how healthy carrots are, but we often need to remember that they affect our beauty as well. Our skin, teeth, and hair will be more beautiful if we eat carrots. And…
I’m making my third BCH and I save more than was the case with the first and second. I decided to make one BCH and save it, with no expectations and no hope of making a big profit. I don't want a big profit. I want my freedom and support in my wallet. And BCH is my support. Something I can rely on, no matter how valuable it is. The only thing I bought from my third BCH was flowers. My mom helped me plant it on my terrace. I bought it to beautify my environment, but also to…
I am holding my BCH bravely How brave are you these days? Are you holding your BCH bravely? 😊 I have read this sentence somewhere and found myself in it. Yes, I am holding my BCH bravely. But I’m not sure if it is bravery. I would rather say that it is trust. Trust in BCH that has been making our lives free and carefree for many days and months. And It will continue to make them so, I am sure. Even if I am not sure, I will not give up on BCH because I've never had better…
I visited Pula a few years ago, and I plan to visit it again in the summer. This city is like an open-air museum. Many ancient buildings are reminiscent of Rome. The most famous monument from the Roman period is the Amphitheater, popularly called the Arena of Pula. Impressive place!
Red lentils make me vibrant My family and I often use miraculous seeds in our diet. I like to call them that because they are miraculous. I am very active. Throughout the day, my body is exhausted by daily activities. I don't sleep very often at night because I have two small children and one of them is a baby who wakes up very often, seeks attention, and drains every atom of my energy. To endure all this, my diet must be miraculous. That is why I use red lentils. I used to…
I used to think I had to eat a lot of food to have enough energy. Ever since I included red lentils in my diet, I have realized that power sometimes lies in small things. In these little seeds lies incredible energy that makes me vibrant. In addition, I feel healthy and strong. I feel like I can do anything and more than that. Red lentils are a protein bomb. They cure anemia, protect the heart and give the body great energy. In addition to recovering the body, red lentils…
Proud of my country Hello, read.cash friends. I would start the article this way: Congratulations Ukraine!!! 😊👏 Last night was a very exciting evening. Ukraine won the Eurovision Song Contest. I am happy that Ukraine has received support for everything that is currently happening there. We are witnessing a very bad time of war in which innocent people are suffering. I hope that this beautiful event and winning the contest will give them a little strength to endure this…
Thank you Ana Djuric - Konstrakta for making me proud of Serbia last night. I don't feel that way often. When I heard the audience at a music contest such as Eurovision applauding and supporting Serbia, I knew that we did a good job and that people all over Europe and the world understood our song even though it was sung in Serbian. As Konstrakta says, an artist must be healthy! So, let's stay all healthy and safe. https://read.cash/@Jelena/proud-of-my-country-08257f22
Greenery I have lost myself in green looking for serenity. I wandered from leaf to leaf and tree to tree, across the grass to the lake and again, trying to find the perfect view and the most relaxing shade. I liked being lost there. In the greenery. Scientists say that green has a calming effect because the human eye sees green better than any color in the spectrum of all colors. Did you know that? Our focus is greatest when it comes to green, so we are the calmest because…
Poppies by the road While walking through my neighborhood every day, I always stop by the poppies. Or at least keep my eyes on them. These flowers are a source of inspiration. They amaze me with their red color and their wild growth. Sometimes they look so lonely. They evoke sad feelings in me when I see them growing out of the cracks in the concrete, by the roadside, in the dust. But despite that, they are beautiful. Through their airy petals, the sun breaks through. They…
While walking through my neighborhood every day, I always stop by the poppies. Or at least keep my eyes on them. It is fascinating that this plant has been used in the past to put children to sleep and calm them down. This is not a bad thing to know. 😊 Poppies contain some alkaloids and because of that, they have a mild sedative and analgesic effect. This plant has traditionally been used to treat insomnia, nervousness, baldness, and various infections, as well as in the…
If it only comes to writing, it would be write.cash A few days ago, I had a fun experience here on the read.cash. I published an article in which I expressed my feelings of pride for my country because of the success that the Serbian song achieved at Eurovision. I wrote about the Serbian song because I am from Serbia. But since Ukraine won the Eurovision Song Contest, I started my article by congratulating this country. Then this article started to look like a trap you fall…
The symbol of Opatija, a beautiful city in Croatia, is a statue of a girl with a seagull in her hand (Maiden with the seagull). This is a special place. The statue was erected in honor of the count who tragically lost his life to watch over his soul. It was destroyed by the sea over time, so it has been restored, but I think the original is kept in a museum.
A sip of nature I love nature because it unconditionally gives us something every day and every month. It is up to us to take it and deserve it with our responsible behavior. May is a special month for me because the elder tree blooms in May. I am amazed by the trees that grow wild, on their own. When I was a child, my mom used to take me to the woods to pick up elderflowers. I enjoyed their scent which I now recognize as the scent of childhood. I was always impatient and…
A few days ago, I went to the outskirts of the city with my mother to pick elderflowers. The warm days have begun, and we need refreshment. When we had picked enough flowers, we went home to make juice. Making this juice is very simple. First, we washed all the flowers, put them in a pot, poured water over them, and added lemon. We left the flowers for 24 hours and then we cooked them with sugar. In the end, we strained the juice and poured it into bottles. It is a syrup…
What is beside my bed? Hello read friends, I hope you are doing well. 😊 Today I came across an interesting topic in one Hive community: ***Products in or on your bedside table*** First of all, I have to say that I don't have a bedside table but I wrote about my belongings beside my bed. 😊 My bedroom is too small and unfortunately there is no space for a bedside table next to the bed, but since there are products that I can't lie down to sleep and wake up without, I have a…
They stole my money I still can't believe what happened to me today. I try to remember everything, but I can't find the answer to the question I repeat - who stole my money? Sometimes people are so unpredictable that you don’t know what to expect and what dangers lurk around the corner. Today is not my day. Someone stole my money for the first time in my life. I thought that couldn't happen to me. I am disappointed, surprised, and scared. Not so early in the morning, I…

Walking through my neighborhood, I came across these fenced roses in their colorful garden. Neighbors planted them to beautify our environment. It is very nice and pleasant when you live in a flowery environment. Flowers make people happy.
Mom, happy birthday to you! *Dear Mom, you forgot it was your birthday. Or at least you wanted to forget. I know your birthday makes you sad because Dad is no longer with us, but you are still alive. Your birthday still makes someone happy. Let us be your happiness. Let's celebrate your life and our life with you.* These words are dedicated to my mother who feels very bad about my father’s sudden death. We have always celebrated her birthday with a lot of joy and happiness…
What does noise.cash mean to me? There is something special in the pleasant noise that cheers me up in the morning.

And I love when my day starts like this, easily with noise.cash. Sometimes I find it difficult to open my eyes in the morning and noise.cash helps me with that. I start…
Some words are worth more when they are silent I recently participated in a literary contest in my country, which was organized for people who like to write poems. My poem was praised and published in the official book of poems. Here it is. The poem was written in my language, Serbian, but I will translate it for you at the end of the article. I was happy and somehow proud of myself because someone found my work commendable. The theme of the contest was, **"There are words…
Kantrida in Rijeka is very specific stadium because it is situated between the rocks and the sea. But not only football is played under the rocks. Athletics is also played here. Near the stadium is Kantrida beach. The combination of sea and sports is one of the most beautiful scenes I have seen in my life.
I could be what I am Perhaps the most difficult question in life we face is what our profession will be. Did you always know what your profession would be or were you hesitant? When enrolling in studies you are supposed to make one of the most important decisions in life. It is a great responsibility for such a young person. Still, many make the right decision and enjoy the fruits of their work and study effort later, doing what they love. I know that one of them will be…
This week, for the first time, I visited a small town Novi Becej, located in Banat, Serbia. It was a pleasure to walk through such a quiet and small place, unlike the everyday crowds in a big city. The river Tisa flows through Novi Becej and along the river there is a promenade. It was very warm weather so we could not walk along the promenade but we found a very pleasant place by the river. https://ecency.com/hive-155530/@jelenaa/wednesday-walk-in-novi-becej
It's cherry time The cherry season is currently in my country. You can see cherries all around you, in the market, in the yards, in the orchards, in the hands, in the bowls. My bowl is full of cherries today, just like yesterday, as it will be tomorrow. When it comes to cherries, for me and my family they are more than fruit. We like to eat them in the evening as a dessert while watching TV. We can't stop sometimes. As we eat them we like to talk about everything that…
Has fruit ever made you happy? Well me yes. When I see all those very red cherries in a bowl, my feelings turn red as well. I am overwhelmed by positive energy and the will to live. They say red causes aggression but in my case, it causes a torrent of positive emotions. And when I start eating them I feel like I am flying in their sweetness. I am not present here and now. I am somewhere far away from everything that bothers me. And I feel great. Life is worth it if we have…

But that is not the usual fear. It is an overwhelming fear. When I see a dog near me, my heart starts beating fast and hard. In fact, I do not allow the dog to be close to me because when I see it in the distance, I change the direction of my movement. Sometimes I make whole circles around the…
Zlatar Mountain is located in the southwest of Serbia and is considered an air spa due to its diverse flora and clean air. Everything here smells of health. Pastures, forests, meadows, rivers, lakes, food, and air. Wherever you turn, nature will make you admire it. What is most admirable to me here is the river Uvac and Zlatar lake, one of the few lakes in the valley of this amazing river. Uvac has a winding stream which makes it a special tourist attraction.
