One thing I was not expecting from Tirana, are its brightly painted buildings with lavish brush strokes of colour. But this is exactly what I found when I began exploring the city in earnest. When your mayor is an artist, Tirana’s colour explodes. Brief History After the ending of a severe and lengthy communist era, …
By far, the better coastal area in Budva is Becici. Still part of the same municipality, this is where the city shines. This extensive seaside beach is classier, cleaner and offers visitors a better experience than Slovenska Beach in Budva. Come explore beautiful Becici Beach in Montenegro and I’ll show you why its superior. Getting …
Having spent just about two weeks in Tivat last year, I thought Budva would be very similar. I have been surprised to see that it is quite different.

I am changing locations now, staying within the country but wanting to experience a smaller city. Having read great reviews about this journey, I decided a train trip was going to be fun.

I split up my very long travel excursion from Asia back to Europe with a stop in Bangkok. There I was hoping to rest, and find some medication that is running low. With no luck, I am now looking forward to leaving Asia where I have spent the last six months. This is my travel …

This is my first time to Korea and one thing I did not expect, not in a thousand years, was the abundance of patisseries, boulangeries and bakeries brimming with delectable French pastries and Korean adaptations. I’m not kidding when I tell you I am surrounded. The mouth-watering delicious bakeries of Busan are out of this …
I had seen photos of this adorable place online before I arrived. Instantly, I knew it would be of interest, for the use of colour and street art is a definite magnet for me. A nice sunny day arrived and it was time. Come spend the day with me at the quirky Gamcheon Culture Village …
Previously, I wrote a post about having Botox done at this same clinic. Today I will describe my experience with VBeam Laser for rosacea at ReNewMe Skin Clinic in Busan.
