Tesla, Nova Iskra & Karađorđeva šnicla

Sometimes you bite off a little more than you can chew. The lecture with my personal reflections about Swedish inventors and design needed more preparations than I had planned for, but when you ”Keep calm & carry on”, most things work out in the end.

Great working environment for focused authors and lecturers alike.

Finally, there was time for some tourist stuff.

My friend Petter, the deerhunter—stalking the local famous beer Jelen (’deer’) in Tašmajdan park.

Visiting the Tesla Museum between the guided tour turned out to be a very static experience. Here a sleeping Egg of Columbus.

The reception at the designers’ meeting point Nova Iskra was – like most Serbian receptions – warm, engaged and chatty.

Not surprisingly, our jolly company ended at a restaurant, where we had some great—tada!—conversation.

This night I had my second Karađorđeva šnicla. A small one, this time.
