Istria, Croatia Wishes You Were Here
Blog: Suzy Guese - 11 February 2012
On the southern tip of Croatia’s Istria, you will find a lion missing his feet. The lion continues to watch over Pula’s Roman Amphitheater. And like that lion, I entered this part of Croatia without my feet. A bad hospitality experience left me immobile and yet courageous at the same time. I wanted to leave, [...]

I am thankful for …
Blog: The Adventures of D - 22 November 2011
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday of the year.

Balkan border hopping to Bosnia and Herzegovina
Blog: La Tortuga Viajera - 14 November 2011
OK, so Dubrovnik wasn’t exactly what I expected. Sure it was spectacularly beautiful, but also a little heavy on tourists and light on good eats. No problem. The good news? The walled city happens to sit squished on the coast between Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina (I propose a name change: Bosgovina. It has a [...]

Dubrovnik debrief
Blog: La Tortuga Viajera - 28 October 2011
The buzz about Croatia is fierce these days. So when my mom offered a birthday trip to Dubrovnik, I got all geared up for sun-kissed coasts, a heavy dose of Balkan culture and exceeded expectations lurking around every cobbled corner. I found my sun, but the truth is, my trip left me a bit confused. [...]

Last week, Spain celebrated El Día de la Hispanidad, AKA Spain Day, AKA my birthday! To pay tribute to the Spanish holiday (OK, maybe my birthday), my mom came from the US and we headed to Croatia.

Lady in the Balkans
Blog: A Lady in London - 3 October 2011
Most people thought I was crazy to travel to the Balkans by myself. I was lectured on safety, on health, on everything imaginable. But I had been curious about the region for years, not least because the only thing I really knew about it related to the conflicts in the 1990’s. There was surely more [...]

Travel Porn: Fresh Seafood, How Brave a Traveler are you?
Blog: Todd's Wanderings - 30 September 2011
Are you a brave enough traveler to ignore the dead head and focus on the fresh tuna? Travel Porn delivers visual stimulation from around the world each week (most likely Fridays when I’m not stuck in a backwater somewhere). If this doesn’t get you hot, bothered, and fantasizing about your packed luggage (carry on, roll on, backpack, whatever turns you on) you might not be a traveler… Fresh seafood in Split, Croatia‘s fish market. It may be my years in Japan, or the fact that I grew up on an island but a fresh chunk of tuna really gets me going.

Lady in Dubrovnik
Blog: A Lady in London - 20 September 2011
I was nervous to return to Dubrovnik. It’s not that there was anything wrong with the city. It was just that I hadn’t been there in over eight years, and I was afraid that everything had changed. Back when I first visited, most Americans had never heard of the place, let alone been there. But [...]
