I love to travel and write about my experiences. And I’m having a lot of fun making my way through every country in Europe! Here are some of my recommended destinations:

I just got back from a very relaxing and sun-drenched (sorry Vancouverites) three-week vacation in Europe. Among the stops on this trip were Baska – a small Adriatic seaside town in Croatia where my family has an old (350 years old!!) house; Split – the second largest city in Croatia and a hub for those travelers visiting some of the country’s most popular islands; and Prague.

I’ve spent a good chunk of my vacation in one of Europe’s newest hot spots: Croatia. Being born here and having returned a dozen times, through communism and burgeoning capitalism, it’s fascinating to witness the changes and recognition Croatia is receiving. So in the final few days of my vacation, I’m inspired to share with you all what I call Kristina’s Croatia!

And I can hardly wait! Iím heading off on a much-deserved vacation (at least I think itís much-deserved) to Rome and then Croatia. Iíve been preparing for it for weeks, booking flights and hotels online, reading guidebooks, mining restaurant recommendations from friends and most importantly, perfecting my packing.
