There are many rumors about this small village, some say it’s located on a cloudy mountain, some claim to have seen a glimpse of it in a jungle. others believe the village doesn’t exist at all because the rumors are too beautiful to be true. It is as though the whole village is a metaphor, known to people from many countries, all speaking about the same subject, and only the details vary. So let’s take it as it is, let’s approach Bello as a metaphor. Relax and open your subconscious, receptive dimensions on this armchair trip to Bello, and see the village in a sense that is poetic, more than literal.  �at was the foreword, what’s next?

It was a warm day in spring, when I arrived at the main bus station of Bello. After I walked a bit through the city, I recognised what a beautiful village it was. The smell of fresh baked bread and roasted coffee was in the air. I felt welcomed by the village from the beginning. They told me about the criminality of Bello, but to me it seemed to be an inseparable part of this village. Like a temperamental person who can hate, but love too.

¶Otaliga av o� röra sig, i sin �gliga handel o� vandel, på Be�os gator o� torg. Snart sagt a�as liv förﬂyter inom Be�os murar. Be�o utgör därför, vid se�n av ens hem, men i ä�u högre grad än den, en betydelsefu� kulturmiljö.

p 30/33

¶A�deles för få ha ä�u lärt sig inse, i vilken grad Be�o verkar ﬆärkande o� utve�lande på själva liv�än�an; för gångna epokers mä�i�or ﬆod den sa�ingen klar. Såsom harmoniserande livsfaktor är Be�o som konﬆverk vi�erligen ej den förnämﬆa men säkerligen en av de förnämﬆa.

¶Vilken karaktär�il�nde betydelse har i�e Be�o för det u�växande �äktet a� få sina tidigaﬆe o� därmed my�et för �amtiden beﬆä�ande intry� utformade i va�er miljö!
