One week and counting

I can't believe it but I only have one week left before I leave for Europe again. I have two weeks of holidays and rather than spend it at home, I jumped at the chance to get on a plane (or 3) to Zagreb, Croatia. I will be meeting up with Jaime and we will be spending two weeks driving through Slovenia, Croatia and Montenegro.

You may remember, I visited Slovenia last year. In just three days I was blown away by this unassuming country and it quickly became my favourite European country. Ljubljana (my home-base) is my favourite European city... so exciting and warm and inviting. So of course I am uber-excited to be going "home". It would have been great to have a week alone in Slovenia to explore my Opa's native country, but that will have to be another time.

I have not been to Croatia but I have spent the past few weeks reading up on the coast and I feel over-whelmed. For a relatively small area, there seems to be so much going on. It will definately be exciting to drive the coast, exploring and experiencing the best of Croatia.

Lastly, the plan is to drop the car in Croatia and public-transport our way into Montenegro. I guess if all else fails, there should be gypsies, right? We only have a few days in Montenegro but I hope to make the most of it.

So, I leave on July 9 (arriving July 10) for a couple of weeks of adventure. On July 24, I fly to Vienna, Austria for an overnight before returning home on July 25. Then, back to work to earn money to allow me to travel again.

I will of course blog about my trip so, I'll talk to you later! I've got to go finishing packing... not much to do because my backpack is always half packed, ready for my next adventure!

Lots of love,
Lisa
