31 Days of Blogging Challenge: Day 7 – Favourite Period to Live In

 

I hated the movie Titanic; lost 3 precious hours of my life! If you would have asked me this question a few years ago I would have stayed: lived on Titanic to save the ship from the disaster and the movie not to be filmed.

I always imagined myself living in a castle, either in France or Russia during the XV or XVI century. But not today. I want to be part of the history.  Every normal person would have choose a happy and a cool period. But I have a dark mind.

And I choose: Turkey, Istanbul during the bubonic plague. Imagine living under the threat of the death. Imagine all your friends and family dead. Imagine being the only survivor of your village or neighborhood.

the black death

Its not such a pretty view. But it would have been a period lived with a constant fear, terror and being accused of witch crafting because you would be the only one not dying!
