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 […]
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.

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 […]
When you work full time job and have family it’s so hard to organize a long vacation. In my case I’m still free with lot of time so short or long trips works for me. If you live in Central Europe there are bunch of places for prefect weekend getaway. Sometimes is just important that you leave your apartment and go to nature; fill your batteries for future work excitements. I live in Zagreb, Croatia at the moment so last week I drove all the way to Slovenia and visited Bled and Bohinj. This was great way to leave the city and enjoy the nature for a few days . It’s only 2 hour ride from the city center of Zagreb. So close that you don’t even notice that you had a trip. Between the borders of Italy and Austria in northwestern Slovenia lies Triglav National Park. Triglav encompasses the eastern end of the Julian Apls and is the only national par in Slovenia. Near the town of Bojinska Bistrica lies Lake Bohinj. The hiking trail runs the entire perimeter of the lake and is an easy walk. All around the lake are the mountain peaks of the Julian Alps. The water […]
