One year older…
Last thursday I turned 27, and even if I was not planning on marking it with a celebration, my friends really managed to make it a very special day for me. 
In these days that everybody rushes to do their jobs, I really appreciate that so many people took the effort to send some wishes by mail, on Facebook, by SMS or in a phone call. Everytime I was getting one message or a phone call a smile would come to my face and made me think how lucky I am to have so many people (over 250 messages!) that took the time to think of me and get out of their daily routine to wish me “happy birthday”
Another fact that I really enjoyed is that not only the people I see everyday wrote or phoned, I got messages from all around Europe! You can check the places where I got messages from:
Spain, Croatia, France, Estonia, Romania, Austria, Portugal, Norway, Bosnia & Herzegovina (well.. most of them came from Herzegovina ;)), Italy, UK, Germany, Japan, Belgium, Greece, Bulgaria, Netherlands, Finland, Russia, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Denmark, Sweden, Poland, Hungary, Macedonia, Slovakia, Turkey, Serbia and Slovenia!
People keep asking me what presents I got for my birthday, and I even if I didn’t get anything material, I think that all these wishes from all around Europe are the best present you could all give me.
Thank you, Hvala, Merci, Tänan, Multumesc, Obrigado, Grazie, Gracias, Danke, Dank je wel, Spasibo, Efharisto, Tesekkurler, Kiitos, Takk, Blagodarya ….
