Looking at a recreation area by a lake, I thought about Batllava and Badovc. Could something like this work at home? That is a part of travelling I value: a place in front of you starts a question about somewhere else.

The image shows a recreational lake setting with cable equipment. It is a point of inspiration; the post does not establish that the scene was filmed at either of the Kosovo lakes.

The caption also suggested that the investment might not need to be very large. That remains an idea, not a cost estimate or an approved project. The useful starting point is the question itself: which experiences seen while travelling are worth exploring back home?

That connection to home also runs through my experience of returning to Kosovo.
