Japan road trip: two days in Takayama

December 14, 2018

In spring, we visited Japan again. Even though Japan was never really a place I dreamed of visiting before our friends moved to Tokyo and invited us to stay, what we experienced there was so intoxicating that we wanted to deepen that experience, or at least re-live it.

Dreaming of Ireland

November 11, 2018

I have been absent for weeks from my blog. First, we had a beautiful autumn trip to Italy, Germany, and France, gifted with all the warm colors of autumn, misty mornings, sunny days and dear people.

September 30, 2018

Traveling Tuscany: Pienza

September 21, 2018

I don't know if I ever mentioned this, but one of my long-term wishes is to visit each region of Italy, slowly. Without frantic driving from town to town, running between monuments and museums. No. A couple of days in one place would do.

Šetnja Colmarom je na blogu- nakon tri mjeseca neobjavljivanja (i nedostatka inspiracije), post je možda malo pretjerano poetičan, posljedica godinu dana neputovanja. 💭
