On the address Pokonji dol 1 you will find the most cute house ever ! Actually is not a regular house it’s a lighthouse ! I don’t know why but ever since I was a child I was impressed by the beauty of lighthouses ! There is something mystical about them ! Don’t you agree? This year I tried to change my mind as I spent lot of time in Croatia ! I push myself to see and feel already seen things in a new and different ways! And now when I look back on the photos of the summer I can only say one thing; “my county is one of a kind “! Truly a beautiful place that will make everyone come back for more ! However I spent one day during the sunset on this island and captured beautiful photos that I wanted to share with all of you ! It would be such a shame to only post few photos on Instagram and the rest keep it for myself ! This small island is located just 5 minuets boat ride from the city of Hvar ! It’s a private property but I was lucky enough with a visit […]
Do you remember that feeling of driving without an instructor for the first time? Or riding a bike, landing a job, your first kiss, getting a good grade? First catching a green wave gives you that profound sensation of achieving something new, but it’s amplified by a million things. As the first surfers blazed their trails; expressing their freedom and exploring coastlines, they were often misunderstood and outcast. Much less appreciate that guys were out hunting for waves instead of working 9-5 jobs, so surfers were branded abnormal and lazy among other things. But In the 90s bleach-blonde surfer bum was the definition of ‘cool’. There were half a dozen surf mags on the shelves and every other t-shirt was covered in Californian surf prints; surf boards, palm trees, campervans. Along with the rest of my generation, my perception of surfing was lead by the media, brands and fashions, rather than the sport or lifestyle itself. I had a romantic notion of surfing in my head, but that’s all it really was, I was in love with the idea of surfing. For years I’ve been dreaming of a remote beach in the middle of the ocean where I can get off the radar and enjoy robinson’s life! My first connection with surfing […]

Istanbul is one of the most vibrant and interesting places in the world and only city that is situated between two continents. All this gave Istanbul special charm that will expand all your senses and make you come back for more. I had Istanbul, for long time on my bucket list but somehow each time plans failed and I end up not going. Finally, this time we made connection. From now on I definitely have special place for this city in my heart. One of the keys to understand Istanbul is to experience the extreme difference between the West and East. Explore Istanbul’s most interesting neighborhood – Arnavutköy Well, I know Istanbul has more then one cool neighborhood but this time I’ll write about Aranvutköy. A historic neighborhood famous for wooden Ottoman mansions and seafood restaurants, located on the European shoreline of the Bosphorus. Don’t forget to walk around the homes behind those that front the waterfront as this neighborhood has so much to offer ! Most picturesque houses are hidden all over this quite neighborhood. Just wait to show you what I have found there! Take a ride with a ferry boat Along the tram, metro and taxi ; ferry is one […]
New Zealand is a traveller’s dream. Packed with spectacular landscapes and virtually untouched national parks -the scenery alone is enough to inspire most visitors. This is a home of bungy and where you can find every other type of adrenaline rush you can think of – and some you’ve probably never even dreamt of. As I’m facing my first summer in Dubai (read “hell” ) somehow my mind flew back to a New Zealand adventures I’ve experienced this year. And one of the best was air safari around the tallest mountain, Mount Cook (3724 m). I know I’ve promised to write a lots of posts about my trip to this magical country but it will come, step by step when inspiration kicks me, like today when I’m trying to cool down by watching this beautiful snowy landscapes of New Zealand’s tallest mountain when the heat takes over the Dubai slowly. This was one of the highest ranked attractions I wanted to visit during my stay and I almost miss it. Well, everyone who ever visited New Zealand or lived know that weather there can be tricky, and sometimes been described as “four seasons in one day “. During my visit, even tho […]
Well Paris you made me love you from the first time I’ve visited, 3 years ago, but love on a second sight was something special. There is so much beauty on every corner; architecture, stunning parks, restaurants and vibrant doorways. Paris don’t let anyone down. This time gorgeous doors along the Parisian streets caught my attention and in less then a week I found myself with a camera full of it. So next logical thing was to write a post. It’s simple. I feel like doors can have a personality of their own. My father was a carpenter and I remember watching him make all kinds of wooden doors many times. He put his time and skills to creat something that we use in everyday life. Sometimes we don’t even notice things around us, but while you are in Paris stop for a second and enjoy this works of art. There are beautiful doors in almost every arrondissement but I loved to explore ones in Latin Quarter, Le Marais, Saint-Germain-des-Pres and of course in lovely Montmartre. I wanted to show you another side of Paris that is not Eiffel Tower or some other major attraction. Life’s beauty is in “small” things. […]
