When it comes to traveling the world more or less everyone
has his or her own list of the destinations yet to visit. Most of these lists
contain destinations such as Paris, Florence, Machu Picchu, India etc. but
there are thousands of places that almost never reach our top 10’s or best
of’s. Nevertheless every now and than a chance is given to us to explore such
places. An experience like that happened to me few months ago when I almost
spontaneously decided to visit my dear friends who took an exchange semester
from their faculties in Croatia and went to Canary Islands.
Canary Islands, a world of its own, were stunning. Going that
far to the south in early March brought me a summer experience sooner than
usually expected. A world of diversities as I recall swept me of my feet.
Visiting an archipelago took me all the way from cold and windy mountain peeks
to sunny sandy beaches and even deserts. The peaceful life of this Spanish tax
free oasis was a nice and refreshing surprise compare to the fogy and tiring
everyday life of the Croatian capital I left only a day ago.
Watching the nature was overwhelming. Most of the landscape
was incredibly green and bursting with wildlife. It felt almost like where ever
we decided to go the islands were trying to tell us that they are not ordinary
islands and a strange feeling of standing on sleeping volcano was omnipresent.
It was only in the mountains that what we felt the rest of the time became
obvious. Huge canyons and crater leftovers warned us about the chaotic and
violent history of these beautiful places. I must confess that visiting towns and villages across the
islands wasn’t less interesting at all but it was nature that dominated
wherever we went. Even in the city of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, a place that in a
way reminded me of Barcelona, tall trees and beautiful parks overpowered the
great masterpieces of architecture done by some of the most famous architects
of our era. In the end I simply fell in love with Canary Islands, not for their
popularity, tax free shopping or great rum but for the nature incomparable to
anything I have seen so far.
Kada pričamo o putovanjima svatko od nas ima vlastiti popis
dastinacija koje želi posjetiti. Većina ovakvih popisa sadržava odredišta poput
Pariza, Firence, Machu Picchua, Indije i slično, ali postoje još tisuće mjesta
koja nikad ne dosegnu naše popise najdražih odredišta. Unatoč tome svako toliko
dogodi nam se da imamo priliku posjetiti poneku od tih destinacija. Jedno takvo
iskustvo doživjela sam prije nekoliko mjeseci kada sam gotovo sponatno odlučila
posjetiti moje drage prijatelje koji su jedan semester studentske razmjene
odlučili provesti na Kanarskim otocima.
Kanarski otoci, svijet za sebe, bili su prekrasni. Putovanje
toliko daleko na jug u prvim danima ožujka donijelo mi je ljetna iskustva
ranije nego li sam to inače mogla očekivati. Svijet različitosti, kako ga se
sada sjećam, oborio me s nogu. Posjećivanje otoka omogućilo mi je da doživim
sve od hladnih i vjetrovitih planinskih vrhova do toplih pješčanih plaza pa čak
i pustinja. Usporeni tempo života ove mirne španjolske porezne oaze bio mi je
lijepo i osvježavajuće iskustvo u usporedbi sa maglovitom i zamornom
svakodnevicom glavnog grada Hrvatske koju sam napustila prije samo jedan dan.
Promatranje prirode preplavilo me osjećajem ugode. Najveći
dio krajolika bio je nevjerojatno zelen i vrvio je životom. Gdje god da smo
odlučili poći otoci kao da su nam neprestano govorili o tome koliko su posebni,
a čudan osjećaj stajanja na vrhu uspavanog vulkana bio je sveprisutan. Samo je
u planinama ono što smo osjećali tokom čitavog putovanja postajalo očito.
Golemi kanjoni i ostaci kratera upozoravali su nas na kaotičnu i nasilnu
prošlost ovih prekrasnih mjesta. Moram priznati da ni posjećivanje gradova i sela širom otoka
nije bilo ništa manje zanimljivo, ali priroda je i dalje bila ono što je
dominiralo gdje god da smo pošli. Čak i u Santa Cruzu na Tenerifima, gradu koji
me na neki način potsjeća na Barcelonu, visoko drveće i prekrasni parkovi
nadjačavali su remekdjela arhitekture napravljena od strane nekih od najvećih
arhitekata našeg doba. U konačnici sam se jednostavno zaljubila u Kanarske
otoke, ne radi njihove popularnosti, poreznih olakšica ili odličnog ruma nego
radi prirode neusporedive sa bilo čim što sam do sada imala priliku vidjeti.
