Walking the Walls & A Food Tour in Old Town Dubrovnik, Croatia

Our last stop of our tour of Croatia was to Dubrovnik.  From Hvar, we took a hydrofoil catamaran that took about 3.5 hours to arrive. The most important item on our list for this city was to walk the old town city wall. The next day we woke up extra early to beat the crowds. Here is a video we...

Game of Thrones Filming Locations, Croatia & Spain

Minh and I had always heard good things about Game of Thrones and we actually attempted to watch it a couple years ago. However, we just couldn’t get through the first episode as there were so many characters, and it wasn’t captivating enough for us to continue. After that attempt we never tried...

Split, Hvar, Brač, Croatia

Arriving in Split was quite a change from the two previous towns we had been staying at (Rovinj and Zadar). Split definitely was more tourist heavy and the shops and numerous vendors catering towards tourists was more evident.  Just hopping off the bus and seeing the piles of backpacker backpacks...

Zadar and Krka National Park, Croatia

Our next destination of our Croatian tour led us a 4 hour drive south to the historic city of Zadar. On our way, we had to take a ferry which loaded the bus and gave us a great view of the coastline. Many of the tourist destinations in Croatia have historic old towns. Zadar is set within...

Spending our Anniversary in Ljubljana, Slovenia

For our 2 year wedding anniversary, we decided to take a day trip to the capital of Slovenia, Ljubljana. I’m sure you’re already asking yourself, how the heck do you pronounce the name of the city? Well, we were wondering the same thing and had to look it up. The correct way to pronounce the name of...

Rovinj and Pula, Croatia

Rovinj is a cute seaside town in the Istria region of Croatia. Our stay in Rovinj was a much needed break from all the constant moving from place to place (I know, I know, first world travel problems). We stayed a week in Rovinj and finally got to do things like laundry and make home cooked meals!...

Plitvice Lakes National Park, Croatia

So I have a confession…I actually never knew Croatia even existed up until a few years ago. Croatia was not a destination ever on my radar, but I slowly started hearing more about it and seeing travel photos from people (especially on Instagram). After seeing some gorgeous images of the waterfalls...

Zagreb, Croatia

We left Buenos Aires to begin the next segment of our trip in Europe starting off in Croatia. It was a grueling journey to Croatia as we had to make two stopovers - first in Sao Paulo, Brazil, then another one in Madrid, Spain. We eventually arrived at our destination and was met with very pleasant...

Parillas and the Blue Dollar exchange, Argentina

If you've been following any of our previous posts, it's very apparent that the best place to get ripped off because you're a tourist, is by a cab driver.  When arriving at a new city, don't speak the language, and you have all your luggage with you and just want to get to your hotel and check in,...

Crossing through the Andes to Mendoza, Argentina

One of the most beautiful features of Chile has to be its majestic Andes mountain ranges. We decided to see it for ourselves up close by taking a bus from Santiago, Chile to Mendoza, Argentina. This meant an 8 hour bus ride that traverses through the scenic pass that connects both...
