a city,

After my session another volunteer, Angeline, and I went to a volunteer’s apartment in Bitola and stayed till Saturday morning. Bitola is really great, and I maybe like it more, as a city anyway, then Ohrid. But don’t tell any of the folks in Ohrid. There are around 200,000 people in Bitola, and there are all the benefits that come with a population that size: a bus system, big well stocked grocery stores, an active and full outdoor market, interesting stores, and a variety of restaurants. Also, Bitola is only a few kilometers from Greece, and you can really see it in the architecture. The city has a very distinctive, bright, and antiqued style of building. And the city is near the NP Pelister so you can see the mountain from nearly anywhere in town. I had a very nice time there hanging out with Angeline.
