It's kind of nice living in a country where a man can walk onto a train holding an axe in plain sight without it being cause for any alarm...

You would definitely end up on someone's watch list if you did that on this continent, if not cause an all out panic/mass evac!
Mind you, in Slovenia, at least half the people on the train will know your neighbours or your mama, so if you misbehave with your axe in public, you're going to hear about it for the rest of your life! ;)
hahaha
Hey! I found your blog by searching "black" and "Slovenia." I'm thinking about relocating from Chicago to LJ to do some research. Can we e-mail about your experiences? Please contact me via my blogger.
Best,
Cam
@Lisa - Ha ha! That's totally true!
@Vivrant - I don't know if there's much more to say than what's on this blog, but you can drop me an email and ask away.
Alrighty then.
Ack!!

@anthrophile- all i could think was "If you see something, say something"!!
I can't even imagine. I live in Los Angeles, and that action would evoke a dual response as follows:
1.) Get off the bus, do not pass go, do not collect $200. Get as far the hell away from the potential axe-murderer, so as not to become the axe-murderEE.
2.) Wonder (from the safety of whatever nook you have tucked yourself into) if he is an actor (probably method) and if the axe is a prop.
