After arriving in Otočac I settled into living the quiet life for the next 6 weeks. I scheduled this stop into my trip to visit with family for Christmas and to just chill out for a bit. I am so grateful to my Teta for having created this space that I can use to just...
It was so snowy in Warsaw, While waiting for my flight to Zagreb I just watched the guys on the ground who were driving on of the vehicles clearing the snow from the tarmac. They sure looked like they were having fun zooming all over the place and sliding about. Our...
I just got back from a weekend away in Split and got to try out the local vegan food scene. There is quite a few plant based restaurants and lots more with options available. It has been a little while since I have gone exploring vegan food options and I was enjoying...
On Friday I packed my backpack, jumped in the car, and made my way to Split for my last weekend in Croatia. After checking into my accomodation and charging my phone up I headed out to explore and familiarise myself with the area I was staying in. I had booked a place...
I had heard so much about Plitvice Lakes before coming to Croatia. It was definitely on the Must See list before I even left Australia. I actually remember Dad calling me back in 2019 when he and Mum were last in Croatia and visited the lakes. He video called me from...
I headed to Zagreb on Wednesday evening as I had plans for a hike and wine tasting tour in Samobor on Thursday. I organised this experience with Karlo from Bespoke Croatia whom I met on the Zagreb walking tour when I first arrived in the country. Karlo came and picked...
Wow! What a week! If you're looking for the short version of my thoughts on Modem Festival, they would be that I am hoping to be back for it again next year. For the longer experience story, keep on reading... Let's wind it back to the 5th of August, when I packed up...
Well that was a lot of fun! On the 27th July I packed up my little car and headed off to Tisno for Outlook Origins. As I was staying on site I could check in a day before the festival started. So The Garden in Tisno is pretty much just used for festivals in Summer....
The bus into Zagreb was leaving Otočac at 6amish so I was up early and ready to go. By the time we arrived it was just before 9am. I had arranged to meet up with Karlo, the tour guide from Zagreb Sites & Vegan Bites Tour. I've added this restaurant now to the Zagreb...
After making my way to Otočac on a bus from Zagreb and being met by my Mum's Cousins and their daughters that live in the area, we went and met their families. It was a nice evening getting to meet people who I have only seen photos of and heard about from others. It...
I had booked an AirBnb in Zagreb with a kitchen so I managed to save some money by not eating out for every meal. I picked up some kruh (bread) to have toast in the morning as well as some fruit. I may add to this post over the course of the next few weeks if I return...
It was time to say arrivederci to Rome and make my way to Croatia. This was a bit of a ridiculous travel route I took but I booked this flight with flight credit I had from 2020, and so I went Rome to Amsterdam then to Zagreb. So it was a full day of travel. Once I...
