Tina and Nina had a happy and careless childhood. Until the beginning of war in Croatia. After a bomb was thrown in front of their house the family decided to leave Zadar. Just like many Italians at the end of the Second World War the two sisters left Zadar forever. Even though they thought they would come back just after a few days – they never did! After the situation in Croatia got worse the whole family moved to Sweden. Their house was destroyed, looted and set on fire. In the house were valuable coloured eggs left. Tina wasn’t very happy in Sweden until she met a nice guy from Bosnia. She fell in love and married him soon. But her only wish was to visit her granny in a village in Dalmatia. “It is fine my dear. I want you to go! You know that I love and support you in all your decisions. Just promise me that you will take care of yourself. You know how dangerous it is. There is still war going on.” There she faced her destroyed family house. Zadar was constantly under attack and people were hiding in their basements almost all the time. Tina was afraid for the life of her granny so she tried to persuade her to go to Sweden with her. But granny couldn’t leave everything behind
