I love this heaven. Thank you!

My gramfeathers is fist bumping this in heaven. I had an insane fascination with three things from the time I was about 7/8 onwards -

The Holocaust
Titanic
Japan/Japanese Culture.

She used to tease me that I must have been Japanese in a past life.

LOL!

Really though, beautiful country that's re-introduced wildlife, won the world's first greenest country award - two endeavors dear to my heart. And, surprisingly, in a country of 2 million and just several hundred people of African descent, one of its municipalities has a Ghanaian-born Slovenian physician as its mayor since 2010, a social democrat elected twice so far.

Thanks, heaven05. This was fun.
