Busy Ines

A breezy blog about serious topics that might concern one person or the whole universe. Short pieces to be enjoyed with your morning coffee or evening vodka, which will make you reflect on your life for at least one minute.

Lazy Ines

Busy’s easygoing, flirty, lazy alter ego. Writes whenever she feels inspired by any kind of thing, thought or theme. Mixes fiction with reality, writes in verse or prose, likes to stay passively alert.

Impressions

The space for book and film reviews, impressions from interesting events, interviews and meaningful interactions with exuberant people.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that your whole family has moved from the living room to WhatsApp.
Beware of the Doc
There’s a good number of doctors (including dentists) in Vienna, who lack the intelligence and sensitivity to understand that consulting patients about their health issues is not the same thing as burning an omelette.

Living la Vida Paralela
Have you noticed that nobody writes text messages anymore? When I send a text message to a group of people to announce an event, every person in that group writes back through a different channel, be it Facebook, WhatsApp, an email re-directed as iMessage and so on. I’m glad to receive word from my friends, but this continuous flow of tiny pieces of information feels sometimes like those night mosquitoes, which come to bite you every second hour only to wake you up from a good sleep.

The Hammerhead War
The sea flogged the shore with the rage of someone who had given so much love only to be ridiculed in return. Nevertheless, it had helped thousands of the forlorn humans to escape the prison they had built with their own hands.

Çuf Çuf is the Sound of the Albanian Train

The Morning After
Poor January 1st. After weeks of preparations, celebrations and a night of frenetic excess, nobody really pays attention to the actual beginning of the new life cycle.
An Austrian Fashion Blog
Where is Vienna in the blogosphere? Austrian fashion is deeply rooted in our mighty mountains and icy lakes, in mysterious fog and crazy rain, in comfort and earthly beauty.

The Killer Dilemma 2
"Psst,” whispered the Doctor angrily. "Business is business. This is big business. Now shut up.”
The Killer Dilemma
He was sitting at the kitchen table of the restaurant, with his head lying on the hard wood, covered by his long arms. The revolver was also lying there among the carrots and potatoes, but he was feeling too weak to hide it.
Festa
Znj. Shabani hodhi sytë përreth. Tavolina dukej tamam si te revista ‘Amvisa’. Një tavolinë katërkëndëshe prej mermeri me pika rozë, e mbuluar me një çentro gati transparente prej mëndafshi të bardhë, e cila simulonte dhe borën që pretendohej të binte për Vit të Ri.

she looks around at people talking (no loud laughs, just smiles), reading newspapers and sipping at their melanges (french-sounding, austrian-tasting coffee) under the high imperial ceiling and, yes, she could not feel more austrian.

Fytyrat e grave u kthyen nga unë. Disa më përshëndetën me zë të ulët, të tjerat duke bërtitur nga kënaqësia që po më shihnin.

Migra's Tale
Sure, hearing or reading about migrants in the media is lovely, but I prefer their individual stories; those told around the fire or at the visa section of the magistrate. Here is one of them.
