Never did I think I would have this much fun, exploring the coastline around here. I’m finding most areas virtually free of people, it being winter. This is giving me a sense of freedom that I crave and one I have embraced fully. Treasure hunting in Tarifa Spain on Poo Beach has quickly become one …

I’m changing destinations again, this time it’s a super fast jaunt, only 3.5 hours long with a short layover in Vienna. I am glad to be leaving Budva, it has been somewhat disappointing and I have had a terrible time with my Airbnb which I will explain in a future post. For now, it’s a …

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.

This is quite possibly the most unique hike I have done in a very long time. Not only are you immersed in nature, below a canopy of soaring pines and beautiful deciduous trees, but you are walking the length of a luge! Come hike the 1984 Olympic bobsled track with me in Sarajevo. Getting There …
