My mom always wanted to visit the Northern part of the Adriatic Sea in Croatia. That region is called Istria and is very close to Italy. In fact, when you travel through these parts, in moments, you feel like you are in Italy. We wanted to make a huge road trip, but had to cut our trip short this time....

During my recent visit to Korcula island, I finally found some time to explore the island a bit further. This time I wanted to explore Vela Luka, the second biggest town of the island. The harbor town is situated in a long, narrow bay, where the two mountains Spilinski rat and Humic protect the harbor town from cold winds and...

The days might be getting noticeably shorter and the crowds might be dispersing, but that doesn’t mean summer in Europe is coming to close. There’s still plenty of sun to be found if you know where to look. Whether you’re after balmy beaches or a relaxed city break, this is a pick of the best places for late summer sun...

I am catching up with my travel stories from the island Rab. This time it’s about the enchanting beach Frkanj, located on the same-named peninsula. It was actually a windy morning when I decided to go for a drive and explore this island. Rab is known for it’s beaches with lots of shade and protection from the sun. Frkanj did...

In todays post I will be sharing some night-time images form the old town of Korcula. It’s the main city on the same named island on the Adriatic Sea in Croatia. The old city is surrounded by walls, and the streets are arranged in a herringbone pattern allowing free circulation of air but protecting against strong winds. Korcula is tightly...

I got a chance to visit the north of my country recently and a, for me, never before seen town called Prijedor. Prijedor is located in the northwest part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, on the bank of the Sana and Gomjenica rivers and on slopes of the Kozara mountain. Prijedor has become an important business and merchant centre thanks to...

The town of Jelsa is situated in a bay on the middle of the north coast of the island of Hvar. To the south of the town are dense pine woods on the sloping hills of the island’s ridge. Jelsa is the only place on the island with an abundance of fresh water, as a result of which there is...

Situated in the Split-Dalmatia County, Makarska has long been an administrative, political, economic, cultural and educational center, and since the mid- 20th century, a tourist center as well. Today, it is a city with more than 15 thousand inhabitants that also encompasses picturesque villages at the foot of the Biokovo Mountain under which the town resides. Makarska is one of...

Summer Vacations are still a bit away, but the occasional weekend before that lends itself for a quick getaway to the seaside. My friends and I recently visited the seaside and we decided on the Amadria Park, which is a resort near Sibenik. This area has been explored by us previously, but as we visited this time, there was a...

This past weekend I finally decided to head out to the sea for a swim. The past few weeks have been mixed with weather, but as the sun came back so did the heat and it was time to hit the road. I decided on a familiar establishment, the Radisson Blu Resort in Split. I only stayed for one night,...
