Slovak Roots

I spent Easter weekend in northeastern Slovakia, exploring the villages outside of Poprad where my ancestors lived for centuries and both of my grandparents were born. I had an amazing time eating, drinking, talking, laughing and touring with cousins and not-so-distant relatives I'd never met. It was one of the best trips I've ever been on and I came back with a completely different concept of my heritage. I'd strongly recommend a similar trip for anyone with roots anywhere else!
