Colours, sounds and fragrances of the meetings industry in Slovenia and South-East Europe

For each important event in South-East Europe – be it a birth, a wedding, a holiday...people would eat, drink, dance to different rhythms and rejoice. Each congress or incentive meeting in Central and SE Europe repeats this ritual and becomes a modern holiday. Europe is thrilled to welcome a new region of congress and business tourism with all its colours, sounds and fragrances. The participants and critics of the international meetings industry have expressed childlike joy over the entry of a new, colourful, fragrant region to the market. Working in

MICE can be tough, market conditions are demanding, traditional convention and incentive destinations don’t like to share their profit and their business. Yet still – the organizers and clients wish for something new. They would like – for the same or lower price – to see the yet unseen places, taste un-tasted foods, unknown wines, hear unintelligible languages and experience undiscovered experiences. Luckily, Central and South-East Europe offers this and much more. SE Europe is a region at the crossroads of Europe. This are countries history bestowed with many experience, some bitter, some joyful. After the political cards were shuffled some twenty years ago, these countries had to and wanted to create a new image in their international relations, restructure their national economies and open up to the world, to foreign investments and foreign knowledge. Today, most of this work is done. Foreign knowledge is still streaming into SE Europe, but it is about time this region offers the best it has to the meetings industry market. Not just (new or renovated) hotels and other infrastructure, which is no longer missing. SE Europe can try to “cheat” or look for shortcuts in its development. We can learn from the experience of Slovenia, which prove good infrastructure and fair prices aren’t always enough to attract the world market. Far from it. This is why the data on convention facilities is usually accompanied by pictures of breathtaking natural beauty, culinary secrets, cultural gems, tied to the languages, religions, scripts, which can be summed up in just four words: extremely rich cultural heritage. The region certainly needed influences. They were easiest to find in our northern neighbours, which mostly influenced the countries they were closest to. Luckily, regions like Furlanija Julijska krajina (Friuli–Venezia Giulia), Koroška (Carinthia) and Austrian Štajerska (Styria) are nearby. Since Slovenia, the most northern part of SE Europe and at the same time a part of Central Europe – depending on the context – was luckily not a part of the political conflict during the nineties; it developed its economy much faster

than the other states. Its development was pretty swift since it made up for 60 percent of the markets it lost in SE markets, with markets in the West in just two years. The economic development enabled the formation of new knowledge, which the state, celebrating its 20th birthday in 2011, or better yet the experts from the meetings industry are now investing to the South and East. The region has been aware of the three P’s since the beginning, not only as a public-private partnership, but as a kind of a new mantra: people, planet, profit. This is why protecting the cultural heritage and sharing it with partners has long been a part of a rounded tourist offer. The goal of the ever growing meetings industry in sunny SE Europe is not mass tourism, but building a well rounded offer, developed with nature, local culture, social responsibility and cooperation with existing and potential business partners in mind. Even though the region offers numerous pleasant secrets, waiting to be discovered, the foundations of economic cooperation are clear: They are set by the European Union. There is no use wasting breath on politics. This public activity, we sadly cannot do without, has seeded discord and disagreement into this region far too often. That’s why we try to avoid it. So we focus on sounds, colours and fragrances surrounding the infrastructure of an emerging meetings industry in SE Europe, which are distinctive, multilayer, pleasant, unusual. We cannot put it all in the same pot and speak of a culture of the region – we are faced with a rich cultural mosaic, undoubtedly the riches on the continent. This isn’t unusual. The region has developed its culture through the centuries. Despite the predominant Slavic culture we can enjoy dishes shaped by the centuries of influence of Ottoman, Alp, Pannonian, Mediterranean cuisine; poetry containing stories of hill-folk or metropolis tribes... Actually, ten smaller often overlooked nations, each adding their treasure to the treasure chest. Once, rigid religious rules, today an opportunity for celebration discovering unknown colours, fragrances, sounds, dances. There is no predominant language in the region, since more

than a dozen are spoken, so nobody gets upset if the “lingua franca” at meetings and after them is English. Oh, is there anything easier than an evening at one of the fancier (zen, fusion, or whatever’s modern) restaurants in Sarajevo, Sofia or Podogrica, to relax with a glass of mojito, followed by salmon and asparagus dressed in prosciutto, then wake up to a tall cup of latte macchiato? The region as any other is following the rules of globalisation. Yet, it’s aware of the importance and the beauty of local traditions and cultural patterns, which are an echo of the gifts of nature. The region is incredibly rich since its northern area begins at the Eastern end of the Alps, slowly dropping into one of the largest flat lands in Europe – the Pannonia plain. To make the geography a bit more interesting, the plain soon rises into the Carpathians. The western borders of SE Europe are warm shores of the Adriatic. Its waves then hit the Dinarides, after that the landscape varies across the central Balkan peninsula. The Karst world turns into the dance of numerous river valleys, lake basins and in between fields, which used to and still grow cotton, tobacco and in Bulgaria – hectares of fragrant Roses. This region has always been abundant with fruits, vegetables and wood, which it never gave away for free. People had to work hard for their harvest through the centuries, which remains in their blood until today. Today, this people are – business partners. They enter the European market of business, congress tourism with a lot of zeal and a desire to work and learn. They know what becoming a destination means for a place, so they eagerly cooperate in the business process. The market needs to recognize their effort and the rewords will be mutual. Welcome to South-East Europe! Rok Klančnik

Colours, sounds and fragrances of Slovenia

Slovenia is one of the smaller countries of SE Europe and is along with Friuli and Austria a “member” of Central Europe. It’s an Alpine country with “added value”, since a third of the country is under the influence of the Mediterranean and flows into the Pannonia plane in the North-East. Each season paints Slovenia with an infinite palette... Each place is proud of its colours, be they a rich autumn yellow, gold, to brown and red, winter white with veins in the form of rivers and blue spots of lakes, glacial or artificial. A colour Slovenia adopted as its own is green: 60% of the country is covered by forests, which places it on the second place in Europe. Slovenians speak Slovenian, which is the foundation of their culture and an historic survival – the nation consists of only a litter over two million of souls. Slovenian doesn’t have a typical Slavic melody. Through the centuries the melody as well as the vocabulary and grammar were influenced by German, and through religion – Latin. It’s marked by a rarity in European linguistics: dual. This is known in modern Arab, limitedly in Hebrew. In Slovenia it survived through Old Church Slavic from ProtoIndo-European language and is truly an exception in Europe. Dual is good for singing as well. Slovenians are very proud of their folk songs. After the Second World War brothers Slavko and Vili founded a quartet and later an ensemble of the Avsenik Brothers in the Alp village of Begunje. The band introduced a new form of folk music to the Germanicspeaking and of course Slovenian public. This is based on the piano accordion and the rhythms of polka and waltz. The musical progress of Slovenia did not stop at the song

“Trompetenecho”. Along with an abundance of good rock’n’roll the band most known abroad is Laibach and their vision of post-industrial rock, full of similar ideology. From Triglav to Bela krajina there is a lot of good food to be found, yet when it comes to Slovenian cuisine you never know exactly how to describe it. As all Slovenian culture it’s, not only influenced, but intertwined with Austrian or typical CentralEuropean cooking. Polenta is just as much at home in Ljubljana, Hungarian Goulash is prepared in a unique way, mostly with three types of meat and called “Bograč”. A few dishes are truly typical for this small, charming country: Dozens of dumplings made from scrolls of dough and filled with all kinds of fillings. If a scroll like this is baked, it’s called a “potica”, the queen of wheat in Slovenia is definitely buckwheat. You must try: Karst prosciutto. The food should be accompanied by sparkling, white, red or rose vine, while the most eager will try homemade “cviček” a mild wine, which barely reaches 10% alcohol content. For the courageous ones: mead, schnapps from pine tops, forest strawberries and herbs (Bear’s blood), and the list could go on and on... Let’s just mention the often wrongly overlooked mineral water Donat Mg from Rogaška Slatina. This water is a record holder on magnesium content and is excellent for concentration, psychic condition and feeling well, which are all the ingredients of a good congress. Rok Klančnik

between the Alps and the Adriatic

Geographically, politically and economically the area between the Alps and the Adriatic – which is actually a gulf of the Mediterranean Sea – is a cultural treasure. At the triple-frontier between Slovenia, Austria (Carinthia) and Italy (Friuli–Venezia Giulia) three languages and three European language groups meet: Romance, Germanic and Slavic. Whoever is born in this area has a much better predisposition to understand these three large world cultures. Friuli–Venezia Giulia borders on Carinthia in the mountainous north, the border with Slovenia flows parallel with the emerald river Soča all the way to the Adriatic coast. Its southern half is completely flat and is a part of the Po river plain mostly covered by the Italian province of Veneto. Even though there are some urban centres in Friuli, throughout history the driving force of the region has always been Trieste. Friuli is known for its language, since the Frilulians don’t speak only Italian. At least a million people speak Friulian, a language reminiscent of the premedieval and even pre-Roman times. The gastronomy of Friuli is a link between the Alps and the Mediterranean. As in Slovenia in Carinthia and Styria it’s often hard to assess which dish belong to which region. This green piece of Europe has always been, despite the politics, transitional. Salesmen, soldiers, clerks paved many ways and brought with them recipes, wine, brandies and good spirits. In Friuli we find some dishes we find nowhere else – here we really shouldn’t speak of pizza, spaghetti or sea urchins, since Friuli is significantly different from South Italy. This region serves “cialsons” – very similar to Slovenian or better Bovec and Rateče fritters. These are dough pockets shaped like a crescent moon and filled with fresh cheese. They are also very fond of plum filled dumpling and offer them as 58

appetizers (unlike their neighbours in Gorica, which offer them as desert). “Gubana” are tartlets filled with walnuts, sugar, raisins and cocoa, but the most famous Friuli food is “frico”. It’s a “marriage” of potato and cheese, stirred and fried. The most appropriate cheese for this dish is “Montasio” from the mountain of the same name (in Slovenian Montaž). At the coast they enjoy eel and other kinds of sea food, as well as prosciutto from San Daniele and corn polenta cut by string. Among drinks, Friuli wines from the lowlands and the western slopes of Collio (Brda) are worth mentioning. The Italian and Slovenian side of Collio share rebula – ribollo, which supposedly originates from the 12th century and the Pinot Nero, with the Slovenian Goriška Brda. The sweet wine Ramandolo is also known. They also make a strong yet fragrant grappa. Brandies are typical for Carinthia as well, since this south Austrian province cannot boast with its wines – these are a speciality of its eastern neighbour – Styria. Again, it’s hard to point out the typical Carinthian foods and the specialities of Carinthian cooking. The shops are full of wonderful types of bread, which is mostly dark, a bit sour especially when mead from dark or rye meal. “Reindling” is a type of bread containing pieces of fruit, on other occasions the “Schlickkrapfen” (dough pockets filled with meat), “Kasnudeln” (filled with cheese and mint) and beef soup with liver dumplings, are on the table. Tafelspitz – cooked beef is accompanied by apple or cream horse radish. Numerous hill cabins serve the skiers “Germknödel” in the winter. A large dumpling filled with excellent plum marmalade, swimming in vanilla sauce and sprinkled with poppy. Styria, in comparison to Carinthia a winegrowing country, is full of “puschenschank” – a type of tourist farm. The

winegrowers always had to work hard, so the food is more filling and heavy. Here the brad is covered with “Verhackertes” or minced lard, they use a lot of pumpkin seed oil and enjoy food made of buckwheat meal, from Rok Klančnik mush to pasta. 59

Colours, sounds and fragrances of Bosnia and Herzegovina Even though the country looks pretty compact, hearth shaped on the map, it’s actually a mosaic of different cultures. It’s the size of Benelux and pretty homogenous geographically. It’s hilly and green, covered with vast woods and part of the Dinaric Karst in the west. It even has a short strip of the Adriatic coast at Neum, yet it’s still seen as a mostly continental and not Adriatic country. Bosnia and Herzegovina in pretty vast in comparison to its neighbours. Some hills, like Jahorina and Bjelašnica, where the Sarajevo Winter Olympics were held in 1984, are so huge a skier could easily get lost without the signs. Green turns to blue, followed by white and red, wherever a traveller stops, his eyes are never bored. Even though BiH – hardly anyone uses the official name frequently when you can simply say “be-i-ha”, is home to many nations, they all speak the same language though in different dialects. The new state calls it “Bosnian”, but actually there are no problems in communication between Serbs, Muslims, Bosnians and Croatians, who share this once divided country. The scrip varies from Latin to Cyrillic from place to place. Noteworthy: this is the language the Nobel Prize winning novel by Ivo Andrić, The Bridge on the Drina was published in.

Sarajevo is very proud of its Jewish – Sephardi tradition, even though not much is left of it today. Yet still! This friendly place offered shelter to the Sephardi at the end of the 15th century when they were banished from Spain. Bosnians, regardless their nationality, listen to the same music, mostly local rock band as well as huge international stars. If we exclude fashionable trends, like “turbo folk” we cannot pass the wonderful treasure of folk poetry and song, be it in the Herzegovian Karst, the hills of today’s Republika Srpska and its capital Banjaluka or the dreamy, melancholic “sevdalinka”. Like a Bosnian fado the sevdalinka is a song of old Bosnian cities, filled with sorrow of love or “an imaginary ambiance of beauty, where in the endless vastness of the soul, grains of joy thrive and make life wonderful...” The cuisine is similar to music and poetry. It’s rich, diverse. It includes “čevapčiči” the most proletarian food we can imagine, which made their way (through workers from BiH) throughout Europe as far as Germany. The best minced meat rolls (its larger, rounder form is called “pljeskavica”, balls served with tomato sauce are “ćufte”), with the addition of onions, “kajmak” (a soft cheese from cottage cheese and salt), “ajvar”, served in a “lepinja”, are made in Sarajevo. Ah, if this were only all ... What about “begova” and all the other stews? The visitor should not be surprised to find dishes similar to the Near Eastern Meze at a Bosnian restaurant. The word “meziti” is quite at home in Bosnia and means the same – to eat slowly, little by little and enjoying a number of different dishes. Due to the centuries of Turkish influence in Bosnia, except in the places with a Croatian and Serbian majority, we see little pork (however do try the Herzegovian

prosciutto). It is satisfactorily replaced by an arsenal of other meat dishes from beef to game and fish. We should point out all the dishes are heavily spiced (another influence of the Orient), they often include cream, or they use meat (rise, vegetables, anything...) to fill paprika, grapevine leaves (“dolma”, “japrak”), onions (“sogan dolma”), cabbage (“sarma”), pumpkins et cetera. Well, the vegetarians can’t complain either, since they can choose between “džuveč” (rise with tomato and paprika), “kačamak” (corn meal polenta with potato), or “sataraš”, as well as other layered cakes from pastry filled with fresh cheese. After a large lunch, the lady or man of the house will serve something sweet – often really sweet. Be it a “baklava” (fried pastry with walnuts in warm water), “tufahije” (baked apples filled with walnuts) “ružica”, “hurmašice”, “kadaif”, “oblande”, “sutlijaš” (rice pudding) and so on and so forth till the day after tomorrow. Herzegovina offers some excellent wines, mostly white. BiH is far more famous for its “rakija” or brandy, where the world renowned plum brandy from fat, home grown plums, often three times distilled and strong as hell, is the undisputed queen. Let’s not forget the Bosnian coffee – strong, fragrant as sin. Sugar or no sugar, preferably served with “rahatlokum” (a jelly cube with walnuts). Rok Klančnik

Colours, sounds and fragrances of Bulgaria

Bulgaria – along with Romania – is the youngest member of the European Union since 2007. As its northern neighbour the membership has completely changed life and influenced the economic development. A lot of what has been written for Serbia and Romania is true of Bulgaria as well, even though the country has its own national identity, language and habits. It’s the oldest country in Europe since it has been in existence since 681 At the north of Bulgaria the Danube lowlands finish, the south is hilly – with plenty opportunities for skiing, the hills and plateaus hide beautifully orthodox monasteries. To the east there’s the Black sea, which has developed greatly as a tourist destination in the recent years. Who hasn’t heard of Kris Javacheff – Christo, who has been wrapping buildings and large objects into fabric all over the world? Bulgarian musicians are mostly popular among ethno-music fans. This music found its place on the golden disk, carried into space by the NASA probe Voyager. Have you tried marmalade of juice from rose petals? Bulgaria is famous for its roses, which are not only for decoration. Your hosts in Bulgaria will mostly swear by local wines and more “manly” drinks, like a kind of “rakija” and “mastika”, which originates from Greece. In Bulgaria they add a hint of mint to it so it’s a bit different than the Greek Ouzo. Bulgarian cuisine is dominated by vegetables, since they are abundant due to the mild climate. They are often the

basis for hot or cold soups. “Tarator” is a speciality made from yogurt, cucumbers, garlic, walnuts, anise, oil and water. To freshen it up in the hot summer they add a few ice cubes instead of water. Bulgarians are fond of the grill as well; they put all kinds of meat on it – mostly pork and lots of vegetables. Beef is a bit scarcer; lamb is delicious at the Black sea coast and in the hills of the Old Mountain and Rodopov. Popular kinds of homemade cheese are “sirene” and “kaškaval” which are used everywhere – from soup, to salad, sauce and desert. Bulgarians have always been proud of their dairy products; they have supposedly been making yoghurt for over a thousand years, with the help of the bacteria Lactobacillus bulgaricus. For Christmas they like to prepare vegetable dishes, like filled paprika or grapevine leaves. For New Year’s they traditionally eat cabbage, fish is served on St. Nicholas day (December 6th), Roast lamb on Jurjevo (May 6th). The sweets are dominated by “banica” a relative of the Serbian layer cake. If there is no cheese at hand, the layers of pastry are filled with pumpkin, cabbage, spinach, mushrooms or sweet filling like walnuts, hazel nut and others, which make the “banica” similar to the Slovenian “potica”. “Banica” is often served with “ajran”, a refreshing Turkish drink from yogurt, salt and water.

Colours, sounds and fragrances of Croatia

Among all European states, Croatia is one of the most graphically recognizable, since its image is always adorned by a red-white (ore silver) chessboard. This symbol supposedly stems from the tenth century when the medieval country was ruled by Stjepan Držislav. The country owns 1778 kilometres of the Adriatic coast, adorned by 1185 islands. Yet Croatia is not only a marine, blue, country. In the hinterlands of Dalmacija, there’s Dinaric Karst, while the centre is wooded, hilly, green and softly wavy in Zagorje and flat in Slavonija. Since the country is shaped like a boomerang the linguistic and musical culture is very differentiated. In Istria the people display an influence of old Venetian Italian, in Dalmacija the language is actually a melody, the so called “proper” Croatian or “štokavščina” should be spoken in Zagreb and Slavonija. Among the national instruments the stringed tamboura and rarely “gusle” are worth mentioning. The entire region boasts numerous modern Croatian pop and rock bands, which perform nonstop, not just at home, but also around the region and wider. Zagreb is proud of its tradition of classical music and poetry, which enriches European culture. In Hollywood, the actor John Malkovich is of Croatian

decent, the producer Branko Lustig has already won two Oscars, the inventor Nikola Tesla is owned by both Serbs and Croats. Croatian gastronomy is similar to Slovenian and Hungarian in the capital and in the continental part. The country is rich in excellent vegetables, crops, all kinds of meat.... Foreign tourists should ask for “pura z mlinci”, roast lamb, suckling pig, dumplings... At the seaside of course: seafood is the rule – numerous types of fish and molluscs, prepared “pod čripnjo” (under the lid), in “pašticada” (cooked lamb), in Istria, try the truffles from the valley of Mirna – if possible in a sauce with “fuži” (a type of pasta). In the last few years Croatian wines are a welcome addition to the European gastronomy meeting points. Wines are excellent in Zagorje, Medžimurje as well as in Slavonija. Dalmacija is known for heavy, red wines, full of minerals and irons, or desert wines like “prošek”. Another curiosity: Maraschino, a liquor made from the maraschino cherry, and the bitter “Pelinkovec”. Rok Klančnik

Colours, sounds and fragrances of Macedonia Macedonia is the southernmost part of the former Yugoslavia. Its people are warm, hospitable, probably due to the climate – often Mediterranean, even though Macedonia is landlocked. In the west it borders of Albania, Greece to the south, towards the east with Bulgaria. Most of the land is dominated by the Vardar plain, where tobacco and cotton are traditionally grown. Macedonian music can be divided into country and urbane by the melody and lyrics. Traditional music inspires a “kolo” dance in a circle. Traditional instruments in Macedonian music are “gajda” (a type of bag-pipes), “šupelka” (flute), “kjemane” (a three string violin), “tapan” (drum), and almost always an accordion. Today folk bands use electronic keyboards and rhythm machines... One of the most famous neo-folk groups was Anastasia, which became known through the Oscar winning film of Milcho Manchevski, Before the Rain. Macedonians had their first punk band called “Fol jazik” in 1978 and music for the younger generation developed into all possible genres – from hard core, to gothic and hip hop. Modern electronic music is marked by Kiril (Kiril Džajkovski) yet he is not nearly as famous as the queen of Roma music – Esma Redžepova, who is the biggest ambassador for Macedonian and Roma music in the world. The kitchen of this small, proud country smells great. Throughout the existence of Yugoslavia their dish “tavče-

112

gravče” was very popular. It’s a simple stew made from beans, onions and sometimes meat. Before the spoon reaches the ceramic dish, the company has to make a toast with “mastika” an anis brandy. Since it reaches 45% alcohol, it’s mostly served with water to make it a hazy white colour. Among the salads the “šopska” salad is just a famous abroad. It’s made from cubed vegetables and salty white cheese. Macedonians share many dishes with its neighbours, yet let’s stick to Macedonian particularities a little more. “Ajvar” is a sort of salad or better yet a paste made from red peppers and aubergines or similar. Other versions include “lutenica”, “pindžur” and “malidžano”, depending on the ratio between pepper and aubergine as well as other vegetables. When enjoying the shores of Ohrid Lake, don’t forget the Ohrid trout which is now a protected species. The deserts are mostly oriental and arrived in Macedonia with the Turks in the 14th century. As did the coffee culture – the country has over 5,000 cafes where the coffee is made in a “džezva” with or without sugar and “lokum”. Among the wines pay attention to Vranac and Alexandria and – T’ga za jug, this is a pure classic among red wines. Rok Klančnik

Colours, sounds and fragrances of Montenegro Montenegro is one of the smallest and the youngest European countries. It has existed as an independent state since 2006, yet it had been an independent country before the First World War. It’s mostly hilly and wooded, yet its history and people have mostly been influenced by the 300 kilometre of the Adriatic coast. The romantic Lord Byron wrote two hundred years ago: “The most beautiful contact between the earth and sea took place at the Montenegrin littoral.” Montenegrins speak their own language, which many locals as well as visitors equate with Serbian, since the countries are connected with the majority orthodox religion. On the coast line (Budva, Ulcinj, Boka Kotorska and Kotor, the wonderful Sveti Stefan) or in the hinterlands they like to sing, you can hear tamboura everywhere and Montenegrins are generally a cheerful people. Despite the rich liturgical and classical tradition, the most known author of modern music has to be Rambo Amadeus ( Antonije Pušić). Even though the country is separated from Italy by the sea, the gastronomy of Montenegro

118

is highly influenced by Italian cuisine – mostly in the areas of wine production, as well as prosciutto, ham and cheese making. Other influences come from neighbouring Balkan states like Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, since they were part of the same country as Montenegro the longest. Sea food dishes are the most popular in modern Montenegrin cuisine, not only because of their tradition, but also because they’re healthy. Among the fish, the Skadar Lake Karp is a speciality, as is the lamb cooked in milk. Montenegrin wines are becoming more and more known, yet still hard to get due to a smaller production. As a remedy for any kind of ailment, headache or heartburn, they recommend “lozovača”, brandy from grapeskins. Yet Beware: this colourless fire water can contain up to 55 per cent of alcohol. When visiting Montenegro, try the “boza”, non-alcoholic drink of a Turkish origin, made from cereals. Rok Klančnik

Colours, sounds and fragrances of Romania

Romania is a country which gained the opportunity to completely reinvent its image since its entry into the EU. A rather large country (about the size of Spain) borders on the pannonian Hungary in the north, on Serbia in the west, on Bulgaria in the south, and to the east with Moldova, Ukraine and on the sandy shores of the Black Sea. Lately, somewhat through the glitz of popular culture, similar to Serbia, its promotion is shaped by the present and future of the country as a European Union member, the older people wouldn’t imagine in their most pleasant dream. Romanian vampires only exist in fairytales, in the medieval castles of the woodland Karpati and Transylvania, which present excellent entertainment after a busy congress. Romanian MTV generation is a fan of the singer Inna or Elena Alexandra Apostoleanu, yet Romanian pop music has made itself known years ago with bands such as Morandi, Akcent and Yarabi. These bands – probably due to the popularity of the Eurovision song contest, are building their fame in English, so it’s probably more interesting to note Romania is still very proud on its folklore. It was often influenced by Germans, Hungarians and Roma, the memory of former Turkish masters is backed by a “zongora” (a smaller guitar with fewer strings), drums, flutes, and often trumpets, like in the neighbouring Serbia. The musical term “doina” is often associated with the Romanian type of melancholically blues. Similarly to music the national gastronomy was influenced by German, Hungarian and Turkish cooking. Let’s not forget Serbian, Macedonian and Greek influences, since this is a geographic region where people would always travel

126

a lot and exchange ideas as well as cooking recipes So Romanians like their stews or “čorba” as well, they only spell it a little different: “ciorbă”. Greek moussaca is called “musaca”, Austrian steak the “snitel”. They like to cook their stews with tripe or feet, (Turkish) meatballs, beans and other vegetables... Each region has its own stew. One of the more famous dishes, described even in Stokers tale of the vampire Dracula, is “mămăligă”, which is suspiciously similar to polenta. Occasionaly they take all the available vegetables, cook them and mix them into a paste, which is then called “zacusca”. Before Christmas (on the day of saint Ignacio, 20th December) they traditionally prepare dishes with pork, which include spicy sausages, black pudding sausages, liver sausages and similar. For Easter they serve lamb and a kind of roll (pască) filled with cottage cheese. “Cozonac” is sweet bread with raisins and reminds of the Italian panettone. If you would like a goulash in Romania, you’ll find it under the name “paprikaš”. From fish they make tasty fillets as well as a fish stew or “ciorbă” and even fish cakes. What to drink in Romania? Over three thousand years – the wine. Romania is now the tenth largest producer of whine in the world. Despite the Riesling, Merlot, Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Muscat Ottonel, they are most proud of their own indigenous sorts like Feteasco, Graso, Tamaiioaso, Busuioaco and others, Romanians are very fond of plum brandy, called “tuică” since the country is the largest producer of plums in the world.

Colours, sounds and fragrances of Serbia

Serbia is along with Macedonia the only land-locked country in the Balkans. This proud country borders on Hungary in the north, its northernmost region Vojvodina is, like Hungary, flat, yet slightly wavy. Now and then a forest appears between the endless fields and in it an orthodox monastery or twelve monasteries (like at Fruška gora). An important symbol of Serbia is the Danube which it shares with its neighbours. Danube and another river, Sava, split Serbia in two parts. After Belgrade the southern lands turn to hilly Šumadija, towards the west to Bosnia and Herzegovina and the border river Drina, the hills are pretty high. The highest mountains can be found in the south of the country. Not to overlook: Kopaonik ski slopes are open the whole winter long – the ski-lifts are humming and the lambs are baking. The symbol of Serbia is a two headed eagle – a reminder of the times Serbia reached its independence from Turkish rule at the beginning of the 19th century and started a journey towards becoming an economic and political force of the region. Serbia made a huge leap forward in tourism over the last few years. Since it ended the political and economic isolation it was faced with in the 90’s, its firs aim was to improve the image and gain new friends and new business. Belgrade as well as Novi Sad, have rich experience in business and congress tourism – they enriched them by adding a story of a new, young, professional and confident, democratic Serbia. About a country which takes care of the natural and cultural environment and where leadership and power are gradually transferred to young, educated people. Serbia is still on the way, it’s not at the finish line yet. But it’s very successful and Belgrade is gaining a reputation of a European capital of fun and nightlife. The sounds of Serbia are known and acknowledge on the international stage. And not only because a Serbian song won the Eurovision song contest a few years ago, mostly due to the incredibly influential rock’n’roll of Goran Bregović and his Band for weddings 134

and funerals and Emir Kusturica (renowned filmmaker, recipient of the Cannes palm) and the No smoking orchestra. They both bring primal Serbian energy into their modern rock, mostly with trumpets and drums. Bregović with his band and a project with Bulgarian vocalist (Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares) reached the largest European and world stages as well as films (Queen Margot). Annual trumpet festival at Guča attracts tens of thousands of visitors from Europe. For the meetings industry more appealing EXIT festival held in Novi Sad hosted the likes of the Chemical Brothers, Mika, Faith No More, Missy Eliott, Röyksopp and many others. Yet we mustn’t forget the gentle sounds of tambouras and tamboura orchestras, which charm the listener with love songs from the olden days. For the more adventurous traveller – try the music of the gypsies. When speaking of the fragrances of Serbia we are once again perplexed... Let’s start with “dunjevača”, brandy from quince fruits. Or its sister plum brandy, or “komovača”, “travarica”, oh...let’s slow down before we get light headed. Serbian gastronomy is hard to tell apart from Bosnian or Bulgarian, since they are a part of the same Central Balkan region. Preparing food was the central activity in a traditional Serbian family. The prepared dishes, their quantity and quality were often the deciding factors of a reputation of the family and its leader in society. Yet still: the Serbian layer cake, a gentle pastry dish filled with fresh cheese is simply a wonderful experience. At the beginning your host will offer “slatko” a sort of jam or marmalade from fruits as well as quince and pumpkin. Like in Bosnia they enjoy using vegetables as wrapping for the food. They fill paprika and cabbage, not only with meat, they also use cheese and to top it off cover the paprika with breadcrumbs and fry it. All kinds of vegetable are traditionally preserved in jars and offered anytime. In Serbia the love of pork is strong; they prepare it in many different Rok Klančnik 135
