Oprtalj – my first time in Istria

City break/Destinations
Oprtalj – my first time in Istria

Earlier this year when I got an invite from my blogger friend to come and spend two days in beautiful b&b Palazzo Angelica in Oprtalj I couldn’t be more happier. Actually it’s sad that I have travelled all around the World but this was my first time in Istria- one of the most beautiful regions in Croatia. I didn’t have big expectations but to have fun with rest of the bloggers and to see as much as I can from this picturesque little village. We had an itinerary that was mostly combined with tastings of local food and beverages. Do I need to tell that gin and beer tasting was my favorite. Maybe, but just maybe we had few drinks over the limit but that’s what good company is for ! 🙂 Oprtalj is small village situated in the central Istria, right next to famous “Motovun “! This area is known for truffles and  wines. Everyone who loves good food should come here and try their authentic cousin. You will thank me later ! Our stay in villa was amazing ; huge pool, great company and perfect weather – all elements for a great time. If you are curious to […]

Istanbul – photo diary

Istanbul – photo diary

In my last post I pointed out some useful informations about what to do and where to go in Istanbul. I didn’t go in details, I’ll for sure come back for longer period in the near future. Four days weren’t enough to explore rich history of this multicultural city. But no matter how chaotic it gets, you can’t deny that Istanbul is one of the most fascinating cities on the planet.  You don’t believe me ? Then stay and go with me to a photo journey. Everything what I missed in last post you will find in following pictures ; food, fresh fruits, people, shopping, rooftops and many more.  Hope you will enjoy it !

Don’t miss it – short Istanbul guide

City break/Destinations
Don’t miss it – short Istanbul guide

 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 […]

Parisian doorways

City break/Destinations
Parisian doorways

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. […]

Venezia – la più bella città del mondo

City break/Destinations
Venezia –  la più bella città del mondo

Can you imagine your parents coming to your promotion and giving you a keys of brand new boat. Here you go child, enjoy it, and drive carefully. Strange, isn’t it; but probably common thing around residents of Venice. But let’s get serious with some facts; there are 417 bridges in Venice, and countless number of boats. 72 of which are private, there are 300 bridges constructed in stone, 60 iron, and the remaining 57 in wood. In ancient times bridges in Venice had no steps because horses were allowed to cross over  them at that time. Venice you MUST visit at least once in your life. It’s divided into six sestieri, or neighborhoods, each with its own personality and purpose; San Marco, Dorsoduro, San Polo, Santa Croce, Cannaregio and Castello. There are many options to get there. With a plane, by car or train, its up to you. If you coming with a car right after the bridge you will find public parking that will cost you 30€ for a day! Someone will say it’s quite expensive but for the city that is packed with tourist during the whole year I will say it reasonable. Here are mine top 5 […]

Hoi An – unknown pearl of Vietnam

City break/Destinations
Hoi An – unknown pearl of Vietnam

Let me introduce you a new must see place of Vietnam. I was thrilled with a experience I’ve had there and I’m sure you will have at least the same amazing time as me.  Life in the old town Hoi An looks like a postcard of a classic Vietnamese riverside town. In 1999, old town of Hoi An was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in an effort to preserve its architecture, a stunning mix of Vietnamese and European style. This significantly helped to increase the annual number of visitors but this beauty of central Vietnam still remains hidden for most of the travelers. So history of Hoi An begins more then 2000 years ago as a primitive port which have been developing with a years into a major one. The town comprises a well – preserved complex of more then 1000 timber frame buildings with brick and wooden walls all colored in warm colors mostly in yellow ones. They are arranged side by side in tight, unbroken rows along narrow pedestrian streets. Beside that Hoi An has one more architecture accomplish, the only bridge that is a temple at same time, dating from 18th century. The structure of […]
