We stayed a good two days in Zagreb. It was the last leg of our Croatian trip. And after our outing at the Plitvice lakes complex, we really wanted to take it easy. There are so many things to do in the capital! Most important of all was the shopping – which I strongly suggest […]

Zadar: in about a day We were pleasantly surprised to find the city had a big spread of ruins, with a Roman forum in the main square. Zadar, btw, is the oldest inhabited city in Croatia, with traces of civilization going back all the way to the Stone ages. Quite rich in architecture, but, really

Plitvice lakes: (pronounced PLIT-vits-uh) Time spent: 6 hours Was it enough? NOT at all! Plitvice Lakes National Park The lakes complex lies midway between Zadar and Zagreb. Lonely planet and even the park suggest a complete itinerary around the upper and lower lakes that takes up to 8 hours. However, this is absolutely impossible if

Stuttgart – Esslingen- Mercedes Museum- Ludwigsberg – Lauffen- Bad Wimpfen – 01.03.2016 Stuttgart Something confusing, to riddle your mind: We stayed at the NH (Hotel) near Stuttgart airport, which is closer to Esslingen (another town) than to the Mercedes museum in “Stuttgart”. Does that make any sense? I thought as much. So, despite being in

Mulhouse, France – 27.03.2016 Left home (Paris) at about 830 AM. The best feeling in the world is listening to music, and watching the road lines swoosh beneath you. Then there’s the rustic beauty of villages and it’s quietude that make you want to weave your version of life-story had you lived there. And then
