Having visited Dubrovnik for one night during interrailing, I have to admit it didn’t much of a lasting impression of me. Having returned to visit friends I have come to realise I just didn’t spend enough time in the town to fully appreciate everything that it has to offer and I ended up really, REALLY…Continue Reading “A Weekend in Dubrovik”

Albania seems to be a country in Europe that no one really knows much about. When I first started saying I would be going to Albania, I was met with off hand, intelligible comments asking me if it would be safe and jokes about me being kidnapped while I was there.
