So I'm kinda still having my NICE hangover. Another NICE-fascination for me, are the burialsites, graveyard or simply cemetery in the old cities of the Cote D'Azur. I never thought that I'll visit cemeteries in another country, I haven't seen a cemetery in Vienna from the inside. haha. I was so fascinated, I super liked the cemetery in Menton, which was so high up that you had to walk a lot but the view was magical. You had an overview over parts of Menton and the ocean. While I was standing and staring at the graves, I was thinking "If ever these people won't make it to heaven, they have a fantastic view and are atleast almost in heaven"
These graves are really old, some from the 19th century or even from the 18th century. A lot of foreigners, who died during war or who retired in Menton. Meaningful trip. Who would have thought I'd appreciate a cemetery? I wonder if these people still have relatives, who take care of their "remains"?.. would be sad if they don't have any caretaker.
