Usually when we mention a "Czernowitz meeting" it includes all of the
Bucovina, I suppose. After all we share background, culture,
language, upbringing, habits, with the people from Suceava,
Campulung, Dorna, Wiznitz...etc...
In truth, we should call it "Bucovina reunion", but since Czernowitz
was the capital, we simply got into the habit of relating only to
this main city a habit which may not be right.
Secondly, we are trying to uphold a certain tradition and
unfortunately many of us are no longer alive, so it makes a lot of
sense to get united and try to convey to our children and future
generations the spirit of the Bucovina as a whole, a quite unusual
land with a multitude of influences and characteristics.
Would you please comment?
Thanks, Lucca
