We started our day with a visit to the Memorial House of Mother Teresa. She was born and baptized in Skopje and lived here until she was 18 (1910 to 1928). She devoted her life to religion at the age of 12 and left her family home in Skopje at the age of 18 to join the Sisters of Loretto, an Irish community of nuns, who sent missionaries to India. She has been awarded more than 120 different accolades and awards, many during her lifetime.

We also explored the city and saw many statues ranging from life size to enormous. There are more than 284 statues and they are everywhere. There are also many beautiful buildings.
