As we drive down the street, fireworks burst above the illuminated Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ. Sparkles of light brighten up the night sky. Families walk towards the church, carrying branches. We pull over and park on the side of the road.
As I step out into the cool winter air, I shiver inside my jacket. There is no snow, but it is as cold as it will get here in Podgorica, Montenegro. It is the Orthodox Christmas, the 7th of January.
