Here, she reports from Kosovo as people deal with life after war. I've been in Pristina, the capital of Kosovo for six days now, and it is not anywhere near as terrible as I expected. The infrastructure leaves something to be desired.
Electricity is on again, off again, and it's always handy to have a flashlight or candle.
Ditto with water - when it's running, we store it in buckets and plastic bottles. Of course, it still has an atmosphere of a wild-west town. Most cars in town are stolen - great white Mercedes with German stickers, BMWs and Audis, they all have the registration stickers from foreign countries and no license plates. The cars that do have plates, I've been told, were handmade. But the shops are full of goods, markets are always crowded, and the pizzeria restaurants and bars are bustling each night, which suggests people are getting money from somewhere.
