Splitting Ways
Our trip to Split started with a 6.5 hour – turned 8 hour train journey. Needless to say we were a bit tired when we got in. That didn’t stop us though. Our Uber driver Ante – turned personal driver – gave us advice of where to go so we wound up on a strip…

Strangers on a Train
Interestingly to enter Croatia you still need to show an ID. Despite the whole Brexit thing that wasn’t an issue for us. It was however for a bloke that was in our cabin. When the police came they pulled him off the train and forced him to take his stuff and sit on the platform.…

All roads lead to Ljubljana
I’ve loved Slovenia and I’m sad to leave. However I feel like it’s worth noting the con that is this country. It’s quite genius really. They’ve convinced the world that they’re a cheap holiday destination – then you arrive… Regardless it’s not the most expensive place in the world and at least the drinks are…

Lazy Lake Life
A reunion in Ljubljana with Chris led to us four making the journey out to Lake Bohinj. We arrived, dropped our bags and jumped in the lake. We then had a calm evening relaxing in the hostel garden and chatting. Lovely time had by all. Day after we rented a paddle board but only had…

No Fun Allowed
America was full of signs everywhere u went telling you that you couldn’t do something. The hostel I stayed at in Piran wasn’t too dissimilar. When we arrived in Piran harbour we realised our hostel was a 20 minute walk away… up a very steep incline. After the sweatiest walk of my life in 30°+…

Cave the Way
Postojna has been one of the best places so far. One week in and I’ve been to 5 different cities – this has been the most relaxing so far. Our first night was a calm one. We went and bought food for dinner, cooked, relaxed and chatted outside. We even met a man who proudly…

Invasion of the Slovens
Our emotional fair well with Chris left us grabbing our train to Ljubljana shortly afterwards. A strange journey but mostly comfortable – and my first in a compartment. There were some Germans in hysterics about something going outside (one man was in tears). I’ll be left to wonder about that one forever I think. We…

Monk Mode
Arriving in Salzburg we trekked out to our hostel. A rather boogie bunk bed made for a nice change compared to the tent. After some time to relax and unwind we moved to the kitchen and made some dinner (I’m sure you’ll all be relieved to know I’ve maintained the veganism thus far). We then…

Intents Days
After a delayed arrival in Munich we arrived at the tent rather late. My lack of knowledge of any of the German language was properly a struggle but we managed to make it there in the end. Germany currently offer a €9 pass to take any public transportation around the country. Which makes me ask…

Off and Away
After a saying goodbye to the family I headed to London for lunch with Sophie. A nice farewell meal to say good luck in Tokyo for next year. Through pulling our Tesco Clubcard points we managed to get all our food for just 10p! Once I arrived I navigated the metro to my Airbnb where…
