PEOPLE & PLACES in North America
ALBA – III
In telling these stories about people and places in North America I would like to pay tribute to all the fascinating, welcoming, caring and loving people, who made my three years in North America an experience for life.
At the same time, it was a plunge from post-war Europe into the materially advanced Canada and USA, who had not experienced war or occupation on their own soil. However, I also met men and women, who were marked with experiences of combat – or imprisonment – in Italy, France, Germany and – probably the worst – in Asia, and in many cases children, parents or spouses living with the loss of their loved ones, not only in World War II, but also for Americans the Korean War.
This was when the former general, Dwight D. Eisenhower, was president of the United States and Richard Nixon his vice-president. However, in these 1950-ties, it was time to look ahead and move on, and I was privileged to be accepted into their optimism and efforts to make a difference.
That this vast continent also holds amazing cities and breathtaking landscapes was just another gift to bring home with me.
