Expensive sunscreen = 3rd degree burns
Wow, we have just spent five nights here in Budva, Montenegro. It is absolutely beautiful. We laid out in the sun and done pretty much nothing. Jamie decided to get a little daring one day and skimped on the sun-screen. This led to third degree burns on ...

venturing into Kosovo
At the beginning of my Europe tour, I never thought of visiting Kosovo. However various travellers' tales of Kosovo had piqued my interest. This interest slowly developed into an infatuation with UNMIK (UN Mission in Kosovo) and getting a stamp from ...
Carry Me Back to Old Belgrade

Bunny Water and Sketchy Cab Drivers

The hike of my life
Woke up and looked around my apartment. For 10 Euros, I had the run of a flat, 12 beds, 4 rooms. 2 bathrooms and one large kitchen. All to myself. I thought I would be dreading coming back to emptiness cause it was such a huge place. But it turned out to ...

So it's Sunday and the sun is shining again. We did have cooler weather the past few days with rain (thunder and lightening too!), but it was still warmer than Deutschland! On Friday, Anita's friend Jacquelina loaned us her car to use for all the ...
Happy Feet
So now I am sitting and soaking my feet about to get my pedicure. I was nervous at first because I was not sure what the standards of cleanliness are here in Serbia, but I can say, for this salon, everything is sterilized and clean. Sparkling. And the ...
Belgrade
The journey to Belgrade was to be my first experience of the overnight sleeper carriage and, as I sat there on the cold platform in Budapest and watched the ancient-looking Beograd Express creak into view, a momentary wave of dread passed over me. ...
